It doesn't hurt to feel sad from time to time.
The first time I got onstage was when I was about 5 years old. It was at a church social, and I had a poem to recite.
I use vaporizers a lot. It cuts down on the heat and the smoke. And for a singer that's not a bad idea.
How would you like to bite that in the ass, develop lock jaw and be dragged to death?
Three chords and the truth - that's what a country song is.
Those people out there like good music. They don't stop and ask themselves, 'Is it country or rock and roll?' If they like it, they will tell you.
