Okay man, give 'em one, I guess.
Here we go, boys.
I've always been singing my whole life.
I wouldn't know how to do anything else
but to make people happy or a living.
Columbia has fit really well with not only
what we're doing musically but with the crowd.
People show up to shows in the hats and the shirts,
those are my folks, man, those are my people.
And then it just kind of grew from there.
I think it was just through writing good songs
with my friends, having a good time,
its just the best part of doing music.
I'm sore right now, though.
Very sore right now.
All because of a fish, dude; it was strong, though, ok?
(men yelling)
Oh my gosh, he's right there, dude.
(upbeat country music)
I got some of my best friends down here
at the #1 Party for When It Rains It Pours,
a song that me and Ray wrote together.
On behalf of the Country Music Association
we wanna congratulate you on your number one song.
Congrats, man.
Thank you.
So in the morning I'm taking you guys to Mexico.
We're going fishing so pack your bags.
#1 Party this, #1 Party this.
Lets go, dude.
I've been to the beach, but you've never been
to the beach unless you've been down here.
I mean, its unbelievable.
I think all four of us were equally blown away.
Yeah, this is awesome.
What these three dudes mean to everything
that I've done I will never be able to explain.
Ray's got eight songs on that first record that I put out,
now me and Dan have written a bunch of songs,
man, and Jonathan's really helping me
a ton in bettering my songwriting.
We really are just dudes that love being outside,
going fishing, today we're really excited.
We're going marlin fishing in the ocean on three.
That's too much. (laughs)
Hey man, this water is unbelievably clear.
Look at this.
These shoes are awesome.
Dude, why do my feet look so elegant?
I think Ray's got the coolest shirt out here, though.
He looks like something on Back To The Future. (laughs)
Oh, fish!
Pretty, isn't it?
Beautiful.
(men yelling)
Come on baby, come on baby, come on baby!
Oh hell, oh my gosh, its right there, dude.
A big, 75 pound tuna.
Here he comes, here he comes, here he comes.
Look at that fish.
We just wanted to get that joker in the boat,
and once we did, man, it was high fives
and we were all just really excited.
Never caught a tuna.
First tuna.
Got blood all over my nice clothes. (laughs)
That's what they're made for, though.
Right?
Going out on the ocean and trying to catch fish,
its fun, man, I love it so much.
Yeah, lets go!
That's an adrenaline rush.
You like adrenaline?
Do that.
That's why people like the music, they're like,
these are just regular dudes.
If I can do this, anybody can do anything.
Yeah dude, I wanna eat that right now.
(Luke laughing)
Us being able to get together by the fire at the end
of a trip like this put an exclamation point on it.
It was really cool.
