[Our 2021 shows] are being done in a smart way. There’s not very much production and very little personnel. There’s no extra fat on anything. We’re only taking the risk of losing one show at a time. If we had booked an entire tour and had to cancel a week of shows, we would be in a lot of financial trouble. And that goes back to having a good manager. So we are making money and throughout the pandemic the band was lucky enough to be able to keep everybody on retainer.
We are working on a new record that’s going to be released in spring hopefully because our last record got screwed by the whole pandemic. But Robby [Takac] and I decided the setlist for these current shows we’re going to hit them with every familiar song and hit. Give the people what they want. [A few days prior,] I got to sing “Iris” with Billy Joel at Highmark Stadium [in New York] and I was like, 'Wow. Holy sh*t it’s Billy Joel.' That was a pretty moving moment. I got a lump in my throat because he offered me an invitation to get on his stage and play to my hometown. There were 50,000 people there. When he introduced me, I was a little overwhelmed by the response. I was out there for a song and it was humbling.
I feel like"Iris" is one of those songs that was just so much bigger than the band. Sometimes you're swimming in your own wake because you want to push forward. But I will always be grateful that that song came into my life and exists because it really helped propel the rest of our career.
I'm so proud of them, they work so hard to make us happy. .・。.・゜❤・
And I was there for that awesome first show since the pandemic! ❤️
WTF has happened to billboard? First using stan twitter trolls in an article as 'sources,' and now using the wrong homonym in another article? So unprofessional.
