I'm Robert and you and I spoke briefly after the Stockholm show last night! Thank you for being friendly and humble and thank you and the band for this great show even if I was little frustrated to not hear more asskickin' killer tunes such as "Courtesy", but since it was one of Toby's first show abroad and in front of a non English speaking country, I also do understand that he could be a little unsure about stuff. We just thing it's an awsome rock'n roll song. Laer I got really drunk instead.
By the way, I'm French and very well informed on what's happening there musically. Country is really getting bigger and bigger in France right now and it would be so cool if you guys toured down there some day. That day will come I'm sure.
Allright, I'm listening to your talented music and think "Sling shot" is great.
Have a very enjoyable tour and my best to Toby Keith!
