Last week, we asked for fans to submit questions for us to ask Kris.  It’s funny, some people submitted more than one question, but the question on everyone’s mind is, “When is Kris coming to [insert hometown here]?”  When I asked Kris and ran down the list of cities and states, he laughed, then pulled out his phone and gave me a list of places that are either in the works or have dates attached to them.  I’d put these in Kris’ words, but there were a bunch of ums, and you knows, as he looked through his calendar (haha).  But it’s a good list.  Ready?

• Texas, possibly in September
• Chicago
• Alabama
• Somerset, KY, May 19 at Cruisers Showcase
• Janesville, WI
• Nebraska, July 13, for Sandhills Summer Jam
• Ohio, July 29, for HogJam  <—-I am THRILLED for this one!!!
• Madisonville, KY

And to close off the list, Kris said, “Up into August, we have a lot of hold dates for gigs.  A lot of hold dates.  Stuff that’s pending, hasn’t been quite confirmed yet, all the way into October.  I guess the best answer for that is just to keep an eye on the schedule on the website.”  And that website?  Check out www.KrisBellMusic.com!

Now, for the other questions:

Me:  When’s the EP coming out?
Kris:  Depending on studio time, hopefully in a month.  That’s my story and I’m sticking to it. Cause every month I can say “a month.” I don’t give an exact month, I just say “a month.” I didn’t say a month from NOW.  I just said a month.  “A month.”  That could be any month.  (laughs)

Me:  What is your favorite song to play live?
Kris:  All of them.  They’re all fun to play.  “Hereafter” is really fun to play.  It’s become I think a big song.  “I Hope You’re Proud” is really fun to play.  There’s not a song where I say “I don’t wanna play it.”

Me:  And your least favorite song to play?
Kris:  I don’t really have one.  It’s just there are some old songs we don’t get to play.  It’s not because we don’t like them.  I think a lot of the style has changed.  If we’re doing shorter sets, it doesn’t fit well to put “Letter of Goodbye” in with “Bad Mutha” and “I Hope You’re Proud.”  It’s still a cool song that we get requests for still.

Me:  Finally, a question on everyone’s mind:  Toilet paper roll:  over or under?
Kris:  Over.  Definitely over.  I just don’t–over.  That’s it.

And yes, that’s it.  Thanks to everyone who submitted a question (or two or four).  We are hoping to do this kind of thing on a more regular basis.  For those whose questions weren’t answered yet, never fear.  I still have them and might just pull them out in the future.
