11 Questions With Alan Jackson: No. 1

The notoriously reserved Alan Jackson is not a big fan of interviews. He simply just doesn't like talking about himself! But in this candid chat, The Boot stretches the living legend out of his comfort zone a little bit, getting him to open up about life at home with his girls, the young stars who impress him and his surprisingly simple plans to celebrate turning the big 5-0.

If you're not on the road touring, what is a typical day like for you?

I get up with the girls [his three daughters] about 5:30 in the morning and get them off to school. I try to work out two or three days a week. We have a trainer come to the house and I walk a three-mile track around the property. I do stuff around the house, fiddle with my cars and boats. Typically, we're going to ball games two, three or four days a week -- basketball, volleyball or soccer.

But I guess the crowd was a little quiet and she said Washington are yall(yes I am a southern gal) out there? there was some response but then she smiled and said OR ARE YALL JUST WAITIN FOR ALAN?! Well it sounded like the roof was gonna come off from the noise! THANKS AGAIN ALAN YOURE THE BEST!!!!!!
