- - one of the great things about this homecoming bunch
- 00:10:26.916 --> 00:10:30.252
- Is to be able to meet our heroes like that--
- 00:10:30.252 --> 00:10:33.255
- The gatlins, the statler brothers,
- 00:10:33.255 --> 00:10:34.790
- Oak ridge boys in the country field.
- 00:10:34.790 --> 00:10:36.659
- And then james and hovie and jake and vestal
- 00:10:36.659 --> 00:10:39.995
- And having become close friends with anthony burger
- 00:10:39.995 --> 00:10:43.332

- 00:10:50.506 --> 00:10:53.075
- - that's great.
- 00:10:53.075 --> 00:10:54.276
- - i love how people come up, and they say,
- 00:10:54.276 --> 00:10:56.679
- "are you guys having as much fun
- 00:10:56.679 --> 00:10:58.280
- As it looks like you are having?"
- 00:10:58.280 --> 00:10:59.915
- And i tell them, "the camera captures a lot,
- 00:10:59.915 --> 00:11:02.618
- But not--it can't capture all the fun that we're having."
- 00:11:02.618 --> 00:11:05.788
- It's amazing.
- 00:11:05.788 --> 00:11:07.022
- - speaking of famous people, you helped us do
- 00:11:07.022 --> 00:11:09.091

- 00:11:15.931 --> 00:11:17.133

- 00:11:17.133 --> 00:11:18.234
- - vince gill was-- - no pressure.
- 00:11:18.234 --> 00:11:19.702
- - yeah, that's another thing about these videos is,
- 00:11:19.702 --> 00:11:21.871
- You start singing, and then you look around
- 00:11:21.871 --> 00:11:23.839
- At who's around you, and it makes you step it up.
- 00:11:23.839 --> 00:11:27.510
- - i can remember him saying that day, he said,
- 00:11:27.510 --> 00:11:29.578
- "man, this field is full of great singers."
- 00:11:29.578 --> 00:11:31.914
