Toby calls it quits

 

Maybe it really is true that you just can’t do it all. At least that’s what ‘Red Solo Cup’ singer Toby Keith seems to be discovering. After making appearances in the movies ‘Beer for My Horses’ and ‘Broken Bridges,’ Keith says he’s throwing in the acting towel for good — but not because he didn’t enjoy it. “When I did the movies, it affected my (song)writing,” he tells the Country Vibe. “I think I had quality songs and we had hits and stuff but it affected my day-to-day, my system, my routine and the volume of songs that I bring to the table when I record an album.” And while some might argue that a big screen appearance would bolster Keith’s music career and sales, the singer says that just wasn’t the case.
