00:00So how is you guys celebrating 60 years at the ACM so far?
00:03Oh, wow.
00:04We just got here.
00:04We just got here and now we're about to sing in like 10 minutes.
00:09That's how it goes, huh?
00:10That's how it goes.
00:11We gussied up and we got all our best stuff on and our fake eyelashes and all the things and we're about to go sing.
00:18And then when you're singing in front of a crowd that is clearly like full of your contemporaries and peers and just everything, does that change the vibe?
00:25Yeah, it changes the nerves.
00:27Mostly the nerves, yes.
00:29Yeah, I mean, it's like a good nerve, you know?
00:32And I always think about like we all have kids and like you want to try to help them with their nerves when they're performing and stuff.
00:39And we live it every day, you know?
00:42Yeah, why do you tell them?
00:43Well, I think it's like focus on the fans and not like there's no competition.
00:49That's what you do all the time.
00:50If we make mistakes, I mean, hopefully we're all cheering each other on.
00:56So we're just, yeah, yeah.
00:57Yeah, you just get out there and do what God gave you, you know, share your talent.
01:02And you've been given a gift, let me tell you.
01:05And I mean, speaking of your peers, there's so many like cool artists jumping into the country music space we've been talking about.
01:10Who's somebody you guys have been listening to lately that you wouldn't mind working with?
01:13Oh, my word.
01:14Yeah, who did you mention, Jimmy?
01:15You've been listening to me?
01:16No.
01:16What did you mention?
01:17This guy.
01:18Oh, I was.
01:19No, I was.
01:20I mentioned Zach Topp.
01:22Zach Topp.
01:22Zach Topp.
01:23Can you call him Zach Topp?
01:25Come on, though.
01:26No, I can.
01:26I mean, I'm a Masha Scissor fan.
01:29And like, if I can get to the Cowboy Carter thing, I mean, I worship the Lemonade record.
01:37Like, to me, it's one of my top two maybe of all time.
01:43I don't know.
01:44You know, it's like it's up there.
01:46So, like, I don't know, just seeing her and the evolution of everything that's going on is wonderful.
01:51And I love, like, watching young girls like Cassie Ashton coming up through the ranks.
01:56And Kelsey, our girl Kelsey, is killing it.
01:59And now she's up for entertainer tonight.
02:01I mean, if she wins tonight, we are going to burn Frisco down.
02:05Well, I'm putting all that into the universe for you, by the way.
02:08Beyonce tickets, a Scissor record.
02:11Oh, my God.
02:13I love, you know, the fact that you're up here but you're giving everyone else their flowers.
02:16I just want to say you all are so amazing.
02:18And we're so lucky that we have you here right now.
02:21And you've given us, you know, talking about 60 years at the ACMs, you've given us a lot of good music.
02:25So, thank you.
02:27Happy to be here.
