For 20 years, Ronnie Dunn was part of the hit-making country music duo Brooks & Dunn with Kix Brooks. He had been a solo act before then, but after two decades with Brooks, he said Tuesday on 'The View' (weekdays, syndicated on ABC) that going it alone and promoting his new self-titled solo album seems a little strange.

"You know, I'm about to find out," said Dunn when Whoopi Goldberg asked him if it would be odd. "I've kept myself busy working on this record and stuff and shooting videos, and now reality is setting in, I'm going to have to come out and sit on the stage by myself and perform."

What broke the group up after so long together? Dunn said the pair were on a tour bus at one point and said, "this bus is too small," that they'd done everything they could together. Dunn also performed the ballad 'Cost of Livin'' from the new album.
