on Hootie Reunion

Two years ago, Darius Rucker put the kibosh on a new Hootie & the Blowfish album, telling AOL Music Sessions, “We have four charity gigs every year and we will still do them, but we will not do a record or tour. Even when we play now, we're not as close as we were. I don't miss the getting big or all that stuff, I miss when we were real close.” But now, in an exclusive interview with host Janice Malone, the Only Wanna Be with You singer has done an about-face on a new Hootie album (and tour).
