Jelly Roll

You know, I tell people all the time, you're not going to be a good performer until you performed in a place where people looked at you like you were interrupting them. Right. You know what I mean? You ever been in a place where you're like, hey, I'm sorry I'm bothering y'all by playing loud music up here. You fucking knew you were coming to a bar, bitch. You know what I'm saying?

It's just, you know. But those are the funnest, too, though. I got to open up for Morgan Wallen this year a few times. And it was really fun because in the last few years, we've just been headlining. We haven't got to really, you know, go out and do something that was so much dramatically bigger than us that it made sense for us to do it. And I love Morgan. So I was like, I'm in.

And we went out there and it was cool because you feel it immediately. You're like, even with the hits I have, you know, there's 70,000 people here that bought a ticket to see Morgan Wallen for they knew my name was on the bill. Right.

You know, so there's a lot of people here that are with me, but I'm still having to tell you, I'm still up here like, oh, OK, tonight, you know, I say there's three scenarios in my business. And I don't know if this is probably different for y'all's, but in mine, my three scenarios are this. One is the you're welcome. We're here. Right. Which is the simple like, thank y'all. We thank each other.

You came to see me. I'm going to give you a great show. Thank you. It's the easy one, right? The other one is the thank you for listening. I appreciate that you gave me enough respect that you sat here and listened to me. And the third one is the one that makes me in. It's the hey, motherfucker, I'm singing.

And you have to go through a couple hundred of those before you get good. You know what I mean? Like, I don't care. And that's what's been so about like the tick tock explosion is you have these kids that will have this big hit job and they'll have five or six hits in a row and they can start selling 2000 seats at a theater overnight.

But can't make nobody laugh or stay. These kids go straight into 2,000 seat rooms and then stand up there like, I've never done a fucking show. I've never stood in front of anybody. Oh, my God. Imagine getting a big TikTok hit, Joe. Never doing a show in your life and showing up. You know what I mean? Or imagine it's even worse. They put you on an opening tour for somebody.
