"The first time we toured together, I never was on stage with him. And so in '98, I would come out and maybe do one song, and then that would be it. So this is a really new experience for me to come out in the middle of his show and do a full set."Yearwood admitted she was nervous to hit the road this time around."I didn't know how I would be received," she said. "I thought, 'Well, I'll be shiny quarter for a song or two, but what is really gonna happen?' And it's been wonderful. They've been so welcoming, and they sing all the songs. Those crowds. There's nothing like those crowds. I've always said that there's nothing like a Garth crowd."She has also got a TV career to maintain while away from home. The Boot noted that "Trisha's Southern Kitchen" is an Emmy-winning show.
