ComeOnDoolittle

Hi Robbie! Can you tell us anything about the inspirations behind any of the songs on Couples In Trouble? It was my introduction to your music, and still my favorite album of yours due to just how different it sounds. "Real Money" and "Anything For Love" still give me goosebumps 15 years after first hearing the album. ("Daddy's got a friend in Macon/Governor calls him 'sir'" is one of my favorite lines in any song.)

This might be dumb, but it's been eating at me for years. Did you mean to use the Mississippi River in place of the Colorado River in "Hoover Dam" or am I being totally dumb?

Thank you, I can rest easier now. I'll be front row next time you play Athens or Atlanta!

Thanks for the answers! "Real Money" struck me so hard because I grew up in and around Macon with parents who were basically drug dealers. You absolutely nailed the feelings I had growing up in those situations.
