That's when i get to go back to New York to visit my friends and just chill out with them. I'd rather have that break than to have a longer summer.

New York actually took notice of us and it wasn't in a hokey, hay-bale kind of way.

Our business is based in Nashville, and it always will be, but New York City is still our No. 1 or No. 2 market. There's an amazing history of country music here; most people just don't realize. Garth (Brooks) is still the biggest concert that was ever in (Central) Park.

We're not ever going to be on the same time zone as Chicago or Los Angeles or New York. But we want to know clearly what the time differences are,

Compared to what my friends in California and Las Vegas tell me, New York seems to be holding its own.

He has no place in the New York Fire Department. I lost too many friends that day to listen to that rubbish.
