For Jo Dee Messina, it is definitely all about the fans. "The fans sustained me through ... the downtime between records by coming to the shows, still checking the website, still writing their letters, always just showing support. That's pretty phenomenal, [especially] when you think how long it was since we've had new material. They're just great. I mean, country fans are as loyal as the day is long. And we need to be grateful for that."
