00:00All right, ladies and gentlemen, we've got a QYK Guitar Pole alumni on the phone.

00:04He is a Texas boy.

00:06He's played at the Houston Rodeo, which is an insane honor as a Texan.

00:10Ladies and gentlemen, Parker McCullough.

00:13What's up, man?

00:14Not too much, but dude, this is the first time we are talking to you

00:17because last time we saw you, you were just an engaged man.

00:20Now you are a married man, so congratulations.

00:23Oh, thank you very much, man. I appreciate that.

00:25Now, it looked beautiful from the pictures we saw.

00:27Were there any hiccups, though?

00:29Were there any things you had planned that maybe day of, things went awry a little bit?

00:34No, man. I was as sick as a dog, but my adrenaline took over.

00:38Everything went off without a hitch, man. It was pretty good.

00:41Oh, wow. You were sick? Oh, that's too bad.

00:44I was so sick.

00:45But honestly, once everything got going, I was fine.

00:48But as soon as it was over, we went to the hotel.

00:50We slept the next morning. I was hurting, but it was such a great day.

00:54I honestly didn't even realize.

00:55Did you guys do the honeymoon right after, or did you have to get back on tour?

00:58No, I took a few days off. We went on the honeymoon and then got back on the bus the day we flew back.

01:04So it wasn't too long.

01:05Well, we are going to see you soon, man. You're going to be here next Saturday at Janice Live.

01:10Sold out show!

01:12Looking forward to it.

01:13This is what Parker is used to. He sells out shows, man.

01:16I mean, you're a great show.

01:17I obviously got to see you when I lived in Texas multiple times at Whitewater Amphitheater.

01:22Now you can't even get into one of those shows.

01:24It's like three days straight he sells these things out.

01:26So it's a good problem to have.

01:28Absolutely, man.

01:29Have you had to change any approach, not necessarily musically, but playing to bigger crowds now?

01:36Have you had to change the way you do shows and present yourself on stage?

01:40No, sir. No, sir. Just walk out there and swing it.

01:43I love that.

01:44That is a true George straight weight right there.

01:45Yeah, and man, there's always one of those, but any kind of nugget you can steal from him, you're all good.

01:52We're talking to Parker McCollum right now.

01:53He's going to be at Janice Live a week from tomorrow.

01:57And I'll tell you, man, you absolutely crushed it at our QIK guitar poll last year.

02:01And let me tell you, man, a lot of people in this town, after hearing you live and hearing your voice fill the Mahaffey Theater,

02:07they were like, I knew he was good, but he is really good.

02:11I mean, especially when he's saying hell of a year, people were pumped on that.

02:15And actually, some Stanley Cup champions who were in the house, and Patty Maroon for the Lightning, he mentioned it as well.

02:22Oh, man, I'll take that. Come on, that's a good problem to have.

02:25He was so fired about it, the next day, before they even dropped the puck, he got in a fight at the game, no joke.

02:32Man, well, I'm glad I could have assisted him in some way.

02:34Yeah, hell of a year. He goes, you know what, it has been hell of a year.

02:39Let me just knock someone in the teeth right now.

02:41Yeah, better him hitting them than hitting me.

02:43Yeah, exactly.

02:45Well, listen, you know, you've already done pretty well with To Be Loved By You and Pretty Heart.

02:49We've got your new single now, Handle On You. This is a good one.

02:53Oh, thank you, guys. I hope so, man. I love the song and really enjoyed writing it with my buddy, Monty Criswell,

02:59and just hope the rest of the world enjoys it, too.

03:01Well, a sold-out crowd is a good sign for that, man.

03:04So we will see you, like I said, a week from tomorrow, Janice Live.

03:08Hopefully they'll let us in because it is sold out. We're not sure.

03:12Maybe we can throw you a text or something. We'll figure it out, I guess, when you get here.

03:15Yeah, man, anything y'all need us to do, we will accommodate, no problem.

03:20I think everybody will show up ready to swing it with us, so we're looking forward to it.

03:25Well, congrats to you and your new wife. That is awesome, man.

03:28Nothing but the best, and we'll see you soon, all right?

03:31Yes, sir. Appreciate you guys. Have a great day.
