Who else is a big fan?
Just saw this live performance of "Let her cry" and remembered how much I loved Hootie, and Darius's country work is amazing.

Charles Smith and Alonzo Mourning. That's the first thing that comes to mind when I hear the name Hootie and the Blowfish.

I remember Darius Rucker being on one of the I love the 90s shows, and he said that he didn't mind so much being called Hootie when they were big. It's just when people stopped calling him anything, that's when it started bothering him. Then I saw him in a Burger King commercial wearing a purple cowboy suit, looking like his spirit was completely broken. I hadn't heard anything from him since then, until I got a fiancee who was into country music. Last place I was expecting a black dude to show up.

I don't get it. At all. It's kind of a small horse, I mean what am I missing? Am I crazy?

He is an amazing vocalist, songwriter, and, heck, I tend to enjoy his country stuff.
And I'm very willing to admit I've been a Hootie and the Blowfish fan for years, even when it was cool to make fun of them.
He also did a great deal of collaborations. His work with Edwin McCain on the song "Solitude" was incredible.
