Ive got tapes that Im so thankful that my father made - old reel-to-reel tapes. Ive got a ton of those things at home. He kept those like fine diamonds, I mean he kept them, you know, in a box and was very, very careful of them, you know.

Even with the sun beaming down on me I'm not sweating in my mind. I'm not sweating in my heart or in my career.

I don't feel like I've nearly got to the place where I'm ready to even slow down.

I look back to when I got divorced in the late 1970s. When that happened, I was so broken up. After that, I decided to seek God for my life and my next marriage.

I hope you came out to hear some bluegrass music. If you didn't, we're both in the wrong place.

Great music is great music, period.

It's part of the calling to at least do a few songs in the show that give people some hope. There's so much hurt in this world and... music is such a great healing balm and a great way to forget your troubles.
