  Tyler Farr says that he’s always enjoyed being a fireworks fuse-lighter, as he recalls some of his Fourth of July adventures. (:40)
“Yeah, I’ve always been a lightin’-the-fuse guy, and that dates back to my early high school years when my buddy worked at a fireworks stand around the Fourth of July, so he would smuggle these fireworks to us. There was probably some things we shouldn’t have done and probably some things I shouldn’t be alive right now for experimenting with. There’s always…we always had the bottle rocket fights, and then it turned into Roman candle fights, until I lit one of my buddy’s butts on fire. And that didn’t turn out good — we had to throw him in a pond, and (laughs) ixnay that.”

  Tyler Farr says that there’s just something about kids and fireworks. (:12)
“It’s always interesting when you get young, crazy kids and fireworks together. They…I think every kid or boy wants to be the fuse-lighter and see where they can make this bottle rocket go.

  Tyler Farr believes in child safety when it comes to fireworks, but laughs that there’s usually a kid like him in the bunch. (:18) (note content)
“I encourage young kids to use the snakes and the poppers, but there’s always that little redneck kid that has a bottle rocket, and he’s about to light it, and he’s gonna fire it wherever direction he decides to go, and it’s gonna scare the crap out of somebody, and (laughs) I live for moments like that. What can I say?”

  Tyler Farr will be heading for his home state of Missouri for the Fourth of July. (:18)
“I am. I’m playin’ in…I’ll be just north of my hometown, in Kansas City, doin’ a show up there, and then I think I’m gonna go to the lake for a couple days after that. Things have been busy here lately, so I’m gonna get to have a few days probably with my family at the lake, so I’m lookin’ forward to that.”
