60 Seconds With Kix Brooks
Kix Brooks is a man of many interests, and a man with an interesting background. Prior to joining Ronnie Dunn to form one of country music's all-time greatest duos, the singer fronted a rowdy group of country rock n' rollers and released a solo album. It turns out, the rowdy, brawling sound one hears on 'New to This Town' is closer to Brooks' true character -- especially his youthful character -- as we learned by playing 60 Seconds With Kix Brooks.
60 Seconds With Kix Brooks
Question 1: Who is the toughest woman in country music?
Kellie Pickler. I just think she's like today's Tanya Tucker, you know. She really ain't afraid of anything. She says what she means. I love Kellie. And I think she's had a lot of adversity as a kid and she's overcome it and she's tough.
Question 2: You have a song on the new album called 'Tattoo.' Do you or any of your kids have tattoos?
Nope. I don't think you can be any more radical than not having tattoos [laughs].
Question 3: Did you ever get suspended from school?
Yes.
Question 4: Care to say what you did?
I think the last time I hosed down a teacher with a fire extinguisher. I actually spent four years in military school [laughs]. I tried hard, I was just kind of a class clown with weapons.
Question 5: Did you have any memorable roles as a theater arts major?
Yeah, I played the drunk in 'The Time of Your Life.'
Question 6: Where's the best barbecue?
Coopers in Texas.
Question 7: Have you ever been approached about a reality show?
Yes. Several of them including… what's Donald's show? 'Celebrity Apprentice.' I don't have time to make paper dolls for Donald.
Question 8: Last time you had a hangover?
[laughs] I don't know -- yesterday. I own a winery, man, give me a break.
