In this excerpt from "Our Man in Tehran," Thomas Erdbrink of The New York Times sits down with Andy — whose millions of fans inside Iran can only dream that the mullahs will ever let him perform inside his own country.
“It’s sad, because we should be there,” Andy tells Erdbrink. “We should be touring every city, every village. I grew up in that country and I love that country. And I always thought that’s possible, although it’s been 38 years already, maybe more. But I keep thinking that’s possible and it will happen.”
