I didn't know what to expect when we first started touring behind 'Southeastern' because you don't want to lull anybody to sleep or lose their attention. But it's really been incredible how the crowds seem to be just as excited for the slow, sad songs as they are for the old rockers.

My grandfather and I were very close.

My cats are really sassy and sophisticated, but most importantly, they are picky.
