to have to wait to find out.

Maybe, maybe not.

Are you a daddy?

Got any kids?

Sweetie, I'm going to have to

get going here.

All right.

Can you give another half an hour

after the show?

Let's see how it goes.

I appreciate you having to do your work.

I understand that, but let's see how it goes.

Okay, thanks.

So Wesley's your cousin?

- He's my uncle.

That boy sure can play the piano.

- All right, thank you.

Wesley!

You were wonderful.

You haven't lost anything.

- Why thank you.

I think you're better than you were.

I'm Ann.

Hi Ann.

- Hello.

I have loved country music

my whole life.

Really?

- Yup.

I even know the B-sides

of your albums.

Thet's better than me.

I was thinking if you aren't

doing anything after the show ...

we could get a late dinner...

or a cup of coffee.

I would, but I promised

a reporter an interview.

That's allright.

I know you're in town

for another night.

Another time would be fine.

Gotta get back to work.

Could you play "Get a hold on you"

for me?

I'd love to. Right now.

Thank you Santa Fe ...

We'll be here one more night.

This is for Ann.

So how did you..?

You played a Gospel song in a bar.

- I did.

How did you get away with that?

How did you know?

If you'd been doing this as long as me

you'd know those things. Here you go.

All right.

- Cheers.

What else do you wanna know?

- Records.

What's your favorite?

I would say "Falling and Flying".

It made me a lot of money.

It turned my life around.

You get tired of playing it?

I have to play it twice, three times

a night, but you know...

It's been too good to me.

I can't turn my back on it.

So in today's world ...

of artificial country music ...

Who's real country?

What?

Is that a stupid question?

Is Tommy Sweet real country?

He tries covering it up, but

I taught him country.

He won't admit it. He's gotta

compete what comes from Nashville ...

but yeah, he's real country.

How'd you meet him?

I don't wanna talk about Tommy.

- All right.

What do you wanna talk about?

I want to talk about how bad

you make this room look.

Never noticed what a dump it was

until you came in.

I haven't seen someone

blush in a long time.

I can't help it, my capillaries

are close to the skin.

Where are you from?

I'm from Enid, Oklahoma.

Of course you are.

What's the most important thing about you?

I have a son.

Buddy.

He's four.

He's with the babysitter.

I'm gonna go get him.

Thank you for talking to me.

Did you get what you need?

I can always use more.

Well, come to the show tomorrow.

We'll continue where we left off.

- All right.

Okay, then. Nightie night.

Hey Bad, I have great news.

Now I'm bustin' my ass on this..
