Lyle Lovett has of late answered more questions about fatherhood than a panel of fellows on the Maury show. As he concludes a long run of tour dates with his Large Band this Saturday at Smart Financial Centre, we asked the local music icon about the fascination with him being a relatively-new dad and he tied it to the music.
