It certainly shocked me when someone pointed out last year that it had been so long (between albums), ... I gave Mick a call, and he said, 'It's time to get moving again.'

It was an off year; I was shocked,

When I gave that compliment last year, ... I was hoping that he was going to retire.

I was stunned, shocked. I'm telling you, it gave me chills.

It certainly isn't the same we looked at last year when [Michael] Gosling and Halsey were neck-and-neck, and we didn't know anything about those guys. It is a much different battle this year.

We gave out $75,000 last year in rebates. We budgeted $10,000 more this year.
