He talking about Georgia yโall... election night... come on. Let football rest for a minute. The man has moral goals too.
Might get this tho...
The best part about traveling now is having my wife with me... and observing how much sheโs apologizing for thinking that I was just out here chillin.
Itโs hilarious that Iโm my dreams (nightmares) sometimes... โITโS SHOWTIME..!โ and the drums still look like this... everyone else ready and the band leader is counting off the tune. The whole gig is me trying to set up and play this kit while asking โwhere the cymbals..?โ.
Yo..! Donโt be afraid to hire these youngsters... they got love and potential. Calling my generation only limits that we wonโt try to build our own scene to help out. My generation has to stop being lazy and take a chance on our craft.
What you give to others... you will have ๐๐พ
For years... every tour Iโve come back from... I either paid some strangerโs dinner bill, or gave them $100... definitely didnโt think it meant anything except โwe here togetherโ.
Iโve experienced this paid back ๐๐พ
someone paid a person to play on their track... that person paid another person to play on their track... that person paid another person to play on their track... etc etc.
the first person basically paid for a multitude of songs. trust that you can always help the music scene.
Yesterday was my Sonโs 21st BDay...
Iโve been saving this for him since the day he was born. As the sips began, he said... โWow, this is GOOD..!โ
Me: Yep
I think touring alone is very healthy for me... absolutely no distractions. Focused on whatโs actually in my heart without having to apologize for it.
Iโm not bold... Iโm literally scared loads of the time. Iโm just so use to it now that itโs just here to be observed.
now think about that and being in this business for 30yrs.
Itโs gonna be ok ๐๐พ
One thing I do know about is being bullied. I was told โI would never be shitโ, chairs thrown at me, laughed at, teased for being 380lbs and this was just high school.
We gone be AIIGHT..! ๐๐ฅ๐ฏ
I donโt think Iโve ever worked as hard in the last 21yrs...
My sons is 20 and my daughter just turned 19.
You definitely need inspiration.
Please keep me strong to keep goin ๐๐พ
My thoughts were so dark today that I just went back to sleep. Mind shut down... I wanted none of it ... yet embraced it ๐๐พ
Hope your day is... sending loads of love.
