Every artist has different ways of preparing to go on stage each night for their concerts, and Justin Moore admits there is one thing he does, but it’s less of a pre-show ritual and more of an uncontrollable quirk. Justin explains, “I do this even in my everyday life, like at home. This is gonna sound so strange, but I have OCD and the shirt that I put on at home, if Kate and are going to go buy groceries, I put a shirt on while were getting ready. I will always change to a different shirt before I leave. And so I’ll put a shirt on for meet and greet and I always change it before the show to another shirt.”
Justin explains that the shirt change has nothing to do with not liking the first shirt he has on, because he usually does. He says, “It’s just, I’m a weirdo. I don’t consciously do this. This is a subconscious thing. But I would guess that’s a ritual, even though it’s subconscious, and I don’t mean to, I just do.”
So if you ever go to one of the “Kinda Don’t Care” singer’s meet and greets and you notice he’s done a ‘costume change’ before going on stage, it’s not about anything other than satisfying his obsessive compulsive need to change shirts.
Justin Moore – superstition or routine :45
“I really don’t. It’s not a superstition from a show standpoint, it’s more me just being a weirdo. And I do this even in my everyday life, like at home. This is gonna sound so strange, but I have OCD and the shirt that I put on at home, if Kate and are going to go buy groceries, I put a shirt on while were getting ready. I will always change to a different shirt before I leave. And so I’ll put a shirt on for meet and greet and I always change it before the show to another shirt. And I may wear that shirt the next night at the show. It’s not that I don’t like the shirt it’s just, I’m a weirdo. I don’t consciously do this. This is a subconscious thing. But I would guess that’s a ritual, even though it’s subconscious, and I don’t mean to, I just do.”
