“When I was in high school, I would draw a fake schedule, and I’d flip to it, and that was my happy place,” Hayes confessed to MTV News earlier this year. “I dreamed of where I’d be on the road, and now I get these schedules every day, and somebody asked me, ‘Is it as good, or is it not as good?’ No, it’s way better. It’s way cooler. I’m living the dream.”
