  • 00:15:32.643 --> 00:15:35.747

  • 00:15:35.747 --> 00:15:39.751
  • -[mark] oh. -[mike] and--
  • 00:15:39.751 --> 00:15:41.052
  • [ben] and during that time, they wrote
  • 00:15:41.052 --> 00:15:42.186
  • -a number one country song. -mm-hmm.
  • 00:15:42.186 --> 00:15:43.688

  • -[ben] "bonfire." -yeah.
  • 00:15:46.591 --> 00:15:47.725
  • Isn't it fun to hear your song
  • 00:15:47.725 --> 00:15:49.027
  • On the radio for the first time?
  • 00:15:49.027 --> 00:15:50.628
  • Do you remember where you were?
  • 00:15:50.628 --> 00:15:52.263
  • I think, when i heard that song
  • 00:15:52.263 --> 00:15:54.032
  • The first time on the radio, i was in north carolina.
  • 00:15:54.032 --> 00:15:56.667
  • We were on a radio tour for the single.
  • 00:15:56.667 --> 00:15:59.470
  • [mark] oh, cool.
  • 00:15:59.470 --> 00:16:00.838
  • So craig and i would go out, and i'd play acoustic,
  • 00:16:00.838 --> 00:16:03.941
  • Sing with him, you know?
  • 00:16:03.941 --> 00:16:05.276
  • And we were out, working that song,
  • 00:16:05.276 --> 00:16:06.511
  • And we heard it on the radio.
  • 00:16:06.511 --> 00:16:07.879
  • It was like, "oh, that's pretty cool.
  • 00:16:07.879 --> 00:16:09.580
  • I wrote that."
  • 00:16:09.580 --> 00:16:10.648
  • And then what happened next?
  • 00:16:10.648 --> 00:16:12.950
  • I felt like it was time to get off the road.
  • 00:16:12.950 --> 00:16:16.287
  • I was ready to just stay home.
  • 00:16:16.287 --> 00:16:18.289
  • We get to covid and a little past it, and i just--
  • 00:16:18.289 --> 00:16:22.827
  • I was ready to be done.
  • 00:16:22.827 --> 00:16:24.996
  • -and i told him-- -were you burnt out?
  • 00:16:24.996 --> 00:16:26.497
  • I was just ready to do something else...
  • 00:16:26.497 --> 00:16:28.232
  • -ok. -...you know, and work
  • 00:16:28.232 --> 00:16:29.801
  • On some of my stuff, work with the brothers
  • 00:16:29.801 --> 00:16:31.736
  • And just-- studio and write.
  • 00:16:31.736 --> 00:16:34.305
  • [mark] ok.
  • 00:16:34.305 --> 00:16:35.373
  • And so i left craig.
  • 00:16:35.373 --> 00:16:39.210
  • Three months later, ricky calls me and says,
  • 00:16:39.210 --> 00:16:41.646
  • "hey, mike, would you like to come out and sing with us?"
  • 00:16:41.646 --> 00:16:45.216
  • And i said, "sure. yeah."
  • 00:16:45.216 --> 00:16:48.786
  • Yeah, i'm back on the road again.
  • 00:16:48.786 --> 00:16:49.987
  • -[ben] yeah. -[mike] and he offered--
  • 00:16:49.987 --> 00:16:51.622
  • He asked me if i'd be a member of kentucky thunder.
  • 00:16:51.622 --> 00:16:55.093
  • I was like, "wow, man."
  • 00:16:55.093 --> 00:16:58.129
  • -that's a dream gig. -it is.
  • 00:16:58.129 --> 00:16:59.797

  • I tell you, y'all, i was around seven years old,
  • 00:52:39.401 --> 00:52:44.707
  • And mama and daddy had a preacher come to the house.
  • 00:52:44.707 --> 00:52:47.309
  • Mama, you know exactly what i'm talking about.
  • 00:52:47.309 --> 00:52:50.479
  • And they said, "hey, mikey, why don't you sing him a song?"
  • 00:52:50.546 --> 00:52:55.751
  • Well, they thought i'd do some elvis or some ricky

  • I sang it because i knew then that i was saved.
