Band Quotes

There are so many parts of music that it’s actually a pleasure for me to work with an orchestra, or a jazz band, or a choir, and use every element that the musical tool box can offer. The world of music I love so much, and I can change the costume depending on the part, and I’m actually in the film Picture Quote #1

I’m gonna design my own fleet of trailers. No! I’m gonna record an album like Jennifer Lopez. It’ll be an acoustic version of K.C. and the Sunshine Band. Then maybe I’ll design a line of clothes like Puff Daddy, but all in synthetic fur Picture Quote #1

But I always wanted to do a theatrical stuff. But when you’re in a metal band of course you’re limited because five people in the band, um, you’ve got no keyboards... you’re limited. And I wanted... to go over-the-top, you know. Literally. I wanted to make an album that people would either hate or love Picture Quote #1

I would rather write songs and then practice with the band. Just the band camaraderie is awesome and then writing music and then just listening to it and saying ‘Dude, we made that music!’ That’s really fun Picture Quote #1

I was not a band geek, per say. But me and my two older sisters played instruments, so I would come home and my sister Dana would be playing the clarinet or playing the piano, and I would play the saxophone, my other sister would be singing, my mom would be singing. I was not afraid to be musical. That was not something that I thought was uncool Picture Quote #1

I like people like Ani DiFranco, a band called Elbow, of course John Lennon, George Harrison, Barry White. I have a lot of different influences and hopefully they all come together and make some sense Picture Quote #1

Well obviously, when you’re in a band you have to diplomatic about things. Everybody wants to put in their two cents and while sometimes it works, often times it also doesn’t, and a lot of times it leads to arguments, like when there’s too many cooks in the kitchen Picture Quote #1

You can’t just walk into someone’s house and take $15 bucks out of someone’s wallet and then walk out with their song. You can’t do that. You got to know the difference between stealing from being cool to the band and paying them what they’re deserved Picture Quote #1

I was working as a cocktail waitress in a heavy metal bar. Then, my manager said I should try some acting, which led to an audition Satisfaction, where I played a musician in an all-girl band. That movie is where I met my future ex-husband Jody Porter Picture Quote #1

Johnny Depp already seen how alcohol and drugs can get in the way of a career. And you have to remember one thing: Johnny was a guitar player and a rock-and-roller way before he was an actor. When he came to Los Angeles, he came with his band Picture Quote #1

I’ve never had a band with more than 3 people (meaning only two string players), so I love having the ability for 3-part polyphony Picture Quote #1

To be in a band, at least according to the rules of rock in the 1970s, one must know how to play an instrument. But rather than waste time solving that problem, No Wavers ignored it. The point was simply to make music, not to learn how first Picture Quote #1

I tend to write on an acoustic guitar or the piano. I have kind of a rule: if I can’t sit down and play this and get the song over, I don’t take it to the band, because most any good song, you can sit down and deliver it with a piano or a guitar Picture Quote #1

Communication between band-mates is imperative. Communication is the key to any healthy relationship. If I need to be checked, I expect to hear it put in plain words what my faults are, and give my band-mates the ultimate consideration by shutting up and listening, then acting on the advice given. Same goes for anyone else in any band Picture Quote #1

Don’t shut yourself up in a band box because you are a woman, but understand what is going on, and educate yourself to take part in the world’s work, for it all affects you and yours Picture Quote #1

When you get down to it, the way that the music affects you individually is the most important thing, and when you let things like the location of a band get in the way or have an effect on your overview, you’re cheating yourself out of a really good time Picture Quote #1

You can’t be afraid of getting old. Old is good, if you’re gathering in life. Our band is good at understanding that equation Picture Quote #1

I was in every band class I could get in, like after school jazz band and marching band, and that’s where I really learned to read music from elementary all the way through junior high and high school Picture Quote #1

Around middle school I studied jazz guitar and ended up playing in a jazz band for a bit. But, after high school, I haven’t even touched a guitar Picture Quote #1

I had always enjoyed the title of Commander-in-Chief until I was informed ... that the only forces that cannot be transferred from Washington without my express permission are the members of the Marine Corps Band. Those are the only forces I have. I want it announced that we propose to hold the White House against all odds at least for some time to come Picture Quote #1

Because primarily of the power of the Internet, people of modest means can band together and amass vast sums of money that can change the world for some public good if they all agree Picture Quote #1

I do a lot of curiosity buying; I buy it if I like the album cover, I buy it if I like the name of the band, anything that sparks my imagination. I still like to go to record stores, I like to just wander around and I’ll buy whatever catches my attention Picture Quote #1

A band should be more famous than an individual, because all else being equal, the band has more mothers and fathers to lend support Picture Quote #1

Drugs are fine for you alone at home, but when it comes to being a family, which a band is, it just messes everything up Picture Quote #1

A learning experience for sure. You’re always learning in this business. How to work with people and how to handle your band on a professional level. How to stick up for your band and do what you think is the right thing and to know when to let things happen against what you think is best. It’s challenging but it’s been a good thing for us, no doubt Picture Quote #1

It was a relief to be able to do my own band, because I was very responsible for all this amazing music I didn’t want to mess up before Picture Quote #1

I love Black Sabbath. They made an amazing contribution to music today. Almost every band that made it big in the Nineties owed a debt to them Picture Quote #1

I tried to sing ‘What’s Going On’ with Amy Winehouse once at an old cinema in the West End. There was a funk band that had members of both of our bands playing in it, but it was the worst kind of place to sing bad karaoke because everyone there was an amazing singer or musician Picture Quote #1

American audiences are great. They get what I am doing, but as my band will tell you, nowhere tops the Irish audience. They are just brilliant. They are very open, but the Americans and Spanish come a close second Picture Quote #1

I was a fairly good amateur musician, and I was an average professional. But the one thing I saw was that the big band business was fading. So I made an economic decision, and it turned out the best judgment I ever made in my life Picture Quote #1
