|
| I CONSIDER MY GREATEST ACCOMPLISHMENT TO BE... | |
| Just to be able to perform while there are
so many people out of work. I've been very fortunate to do what I
love to do and make a living at it. |
|
| I CONSIDER MY GREATEST CAREER ACHIEVEMENT TO BE... | |
| I hope that I haven't achieved it, yet. But
just you wait! It's gonna happen! |
|
| THE PERSON I WOULD LIKE TO CUT A DUET WITH... | |
| On a MAJOR label, with my wife, Tamra. |
|
| MY MOST EMBARRASSING MOMENT WAS... | |
| I was opening for the Nitty Gritty Dirt band
before a hometown crowd. I'd gotten an encore and some of the fans
were offering me flowers from the edge of the stage. As I was going
to receive them - because of the blinding spotlight - I wasn't able
to determine where the monitors and stage equipment was. I ended up
crashing right through a monitor with a big, loud BOOM! That was REALLY
embarrassing! |
|
| THE FUNNIEST THING THAT EVER HAPPENED TO ME ON STAGE IS... | |
| Remembering my previous episode, after the
band and I had gone back to Branson to perform, they had placed these
big, orange pylons all around the stage so I wouldn't fall into anything! |
|
| THE MOST TOUCHING THING A FAN HAS EVER DONE WAS... | |
| My fans are ALL sooo wonderful. I can't choose
one incident. They've all been there for me and I don't take that
for granted! |
|
| MY BIGGEST PET PEEVE IS... | |
| The stupidity of some drivers! I wish they'd
just get off the road! |
|
| MY BIGGEST CHARACTER FLAW IS... | |
| What exactly is a "character flaw"? |
|
| SECRETLY, I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO... | |
| Tear that dang pesky tag off the mattresses!
Or maybe just be able to walk into a major record label's office and
they'd sign me up! |
|
| A HABIT I'D MOST LIKE TO BREAK... | |
| I watch too much television. I can't help it.
It's those doggone talk shows and cop shows! |
|
| THE QUESTION I LEAST WANT TO HEAR IN AN INTERVIEW... | |
| "What would you be doing if you weren't singing?" |
