A touring musician spends over 200 nights a year away from their own family and comfortable home. That huge number means a lot of lonely hotel rooms and missing the people you love the most.

He lets the audience see the private, human side of life on the road. This performance shows the powerful contrast between being a star and just wanting to be home.
