Pop fans flock to Chris Isaak's concerts around the world, but back in the U.S. he has to carry his American Express card. "People think I'm Randy Travis, which I dig," says Isaak, 36, whose latest album is San Francisco Days. "One day I went to Warner Bros., my record company, and parked my car-- which usually they never let me do. But that day the guy at the gate said, `Hi, Mr. Travis!' I had to keep saying I was him after that. I was going, `Aw, shucks! I think I'll park 'er anywhere.' This opens up a whole new world for me. You know, `Mr. Travis would like you to come to his hotel room.' Let's hope he's not confused with me, for his sake."
