I love touring, I really do.

I'm dedicated to touring the rest of my life.

I've been touring for so long, I've kind of honed into exactly what I am, I'm an artist so if you like it, you like it, if you don't you don't, you know?

Touring has been a major part of my career. I've done a lot of huge shows, including a 13-night sell-out stint at the Indoor Arena in Birmingham, playing to a total audience of 65,000.

When I stopped touring in the early '80s for a few years, it was a mistake looking back. I lost touch with my audience in a way and I think that was a bad career move.

I used to tour with this band. I was a drummer. I would tour a bunch for about 10 months out of the year and act for about two months. I would make what I needed from acting and would stretch it out.

I've done every kind of touring known to mankind. I've played the big and the small places.

I have been on my own all my life except during those touring days.

I've been touring now since about '68.

I couldn't be touring unless my husband was on the road with me, taking care of our son while I'm onstage and doing interviews.
