I dont mind traveling that much when I can go somewhere and stay there for a while, but touring is different. You rarely see anything. You get there early in the morning and youre resting all day, and you go in and do a sound check, and you do the show, and then bam youre gone. – George Strait
I used to do a lot of interviews in the early 80s, when my career started, but it came to a point when I decided I didnt want to talk anymore, and people kind of understood that and left me alone. – George Strait
