Aaaaaaaaaah, home sweet home. I know your own bed is going to feel great! Rest up, play great and come out swingin' for the next round!! (That'll be us again <claps, grins, does little jig> !! )

Yeah, all three can probably stay at home this week while playing in the LA area.

Stewart and Andy live real close to one another (per things I have read from Stewart). I think they live in or near Santa Monica.

Then Sting has the old Larry Hagman (J.R. Ewing) house in Malibu.

I am sure it is nice for them to sleep in their own bed for a few nights and see the family.

Then they get a few days of rest before they hit Dallas.... refreshed and ready to rock!

You know the funny thing? Playing in your hometown has a few elements that can be MORE difficult than a regular road date.

First, you've kind of got that road mentality ingrained after awhile of being on tour. It's difficult to explain, but you kind of fall into a different personality that lets you handle the rigors of a tour. A defense mechanism, I guess. So suddenly, you're thrust temporarily back into the familiar, and yet... you're still on the road, so to speak. A strange dichotomy.

Second, in your hometown, you have all the more people who are close to you to deal with. Not that an artist on Stewart's level deals with all of this directly, but it's more backstage passes, more things to arrange and so on.

Finally, you have people you really WANT to see -- your wife, your kids, girlfriend, parents, whatever the case may be -- but you really don't have any more downtime than you would at any stop in any city. So it can be frustrating as well.

Despite all that, on a personal basis, I'd sure miss my little son if I was out on the road touring, and it'd be great to see him even for a short while. I'm sure type of thing that makes the homefront tour stop worthwhile.
