I've had a great respect for Dwight's music and talent, but had never heard him interviewed before. He is clearly a very intelligent and thoughtful person, and probably explains why his music is so unique and wonderful, and dedicated to the traditional west coast country sound rather than chasing the commercialism of Nashville. He's a living legend in my opinion.

Dwight wears a hat because his long hair looks much better with his trademark hat, than with the balding top of his head. Remember Gallagher that smashed pumpkins on stage? Pretty much the same hair. That said, I have incredible respect for Dwight's music, his abilities as a musician, and his intelligence which clearly shines through in this interview. BTW, if you watch Dwight's tribute to Buck at his funeral, he jokes about wearing a hat in church because he looks much better.

Dwight puts a lot of thought into everything. He mentions in this interview that he thinks they may have over dressed for this particular occasion. I appreciated that they had a full dress show because thus is what you will have if you see these guys in concert. So many bands dress down and just wear t-shirts and jeans. It is refreshing yo see a band dress up for the occasion. Back in the 80s and 90s that was normal. I saw Dwight with this exact band lineup a bout 3 years ago and they all dressed like this for that show. It was a great concert. Dwight has refined his sound into a set formula that still sounds great and is still edgy enough not to grow tiresome. His young band mates breath new vigor and life into these songs. I can tell that Dwight is energized also. He still sounds just as great as ever. I anticipate seeing them live again if they ever start having concerts again.

I've been a DY fan for decades, so I know his song lyrics pretty well. They're intelligent, rich, descriptive, and finely-tuned, to the point where just one line can tell an entire story. I'd wager a broken-down yard pickup with a rusty plow blade dangling from the frame he's got a sky-high IQ and is somewhat of a perfectionist -- both admirable traits in my book.

The interviewer was perfect. He just sat back and gave Dwight plenty of time and space to answer the questions.

Yes, it's been rehashed a thousand times. Dwight without Pete Anderson is like Johnny without Luther or Buck without Don. Dwight has cut some great stuff since parting with Pete. But, when I hear their collaborations even on things like a a Merle cover song, you can tell when Pete is on it and produced by him. It's a unique sound. Nobody ever thought Axel and Slash would play together again. Stranger things have happened. Who knows...
