Band Quotes

Clay Cook is a first class musician. Tender tormented genius here in ‘North Star’. I will kill him if he leaves my band and he knows it. Great record Picture Quote #1

You shouldn’t end a band like Westlife and not be financially secure to some extent, but I wasn’t at all - it was the complete opposite. But you look at stuff then, ‘Well, what do I have? I don’t have money but I have a great marriage, three healthy kids, and I have my voice. I’ll just start again.’ Picture Quote #1

Once again, in the fine tradition of North Texas Lab Bands, this is truly a superb band. Under the artful leadership of Neil Slater, these great musicians have managed to combine small group openness with the swinging precision of a classic big band. Very enjoyable! Picture Quote #1

I have a great band, with very talented players, and we give everything we have every night Picture Quote #1

The Ruts were a great punk rock band from England whose songs were as excellent as their time together was short Picture Quote #1

I always wanted to be in a band with a bunch of dudes who loved Green Day and all that Picture Quote #1

Advertisements

I was a Green Day guy because the first DVD I bought was Green Day’s ‘Bullet In A Bible,’ the live album. That really empowered me to be not just a drummer but a performer. It’s a really crucial part of why I wanted to be in a band Picture Quote #1

The band Grizzly Bear, I think they’re excellent. There’s a beauty and a musicality there that I wish would have been in vogue in the late 80s, when I was forming bands Picture Quote #1

The reason I stopped doing the band is that I wanted to do something different... Yes had become like ‘Groundhog Day’ for me. I loved being in the band, but it was album-tour, album-tour, different album-different tour Picture Quote #1

Paul persuaded me to join the band. I would never have had the courage otherwise. It was fun at the beginning. We were playing just for fun, with Paul’s group Picture Quote #1

When you’re in a young band for the first time, geographically you’re in the same place and you tend to go out and socialize. You play more shows, you spend more time together. You’re a unit. As you grow older, inevitably you develop a life outside the band. I think it would be tragic if you didn’t Picture Quote #1

And I saw the sax line-up that he had behind him and I thought, I’m going to learn the saxophone. When I grow up, I’m going to play in his band. So I sort of persuaded my dad to get me a kind of a plastic saxophone on the hire purchase plan Picture Quote #1

Luckily for me, when I was growing up in high school, I had a band, and I was a singer in the band. I’m less of a legit Broadway singer than I am a pop-rock singer Picture Quote #1

When I was growing up, in L.A., I went to these schools, Fairfax High School, Bancroft Junior High School, and they had great music departments. I always played in the orchestra, the jazz band, the marching band Picture Quote #1

My parents divorced when I was 3 years old. They had a lounge act in Las Vegas, where I was born. The band broke up and the marriage dissolved, and my mother, my sister and I moved to Southern California. And I didn’t see my dad a lot growing up; he was on the road a lot. I’d see him every couple years Picture Quote #1

We were really grown up for our age and it was an incredible special band Picture Quote #1

Late-night shows are ‘Chopped.’ Who are your guests tonight? Your guests tonight are veal tongue, coffee grounds and gummy bears. There, make a show ... Make an appetizer that appeals to millions of people. That’s what I like. How could you possibly do it? Oh, you bring in your own flavors. Your own house band is another flavor Picture Quote #1

Over the years, I’ve had to learn to play. For example, when ‘Lennon’ was on Broadway, I learned my way around the guitar chords because originally we were all going to play the instruments without a band Picture Quote #1

I think the furthest I ever got was Guitar Hero. If I could start a band like that, I think I could do it Picture Quote #1

I feel so lucky to have been in a group where it was a real band. This wasn’t a singer and guitar player and some other guys Picture Quote #1

But if I was still trying to be in Guns N’ Roses while I wasn’t in the band... I wouldn’t want to maintain an image like that Picture Quote #1

When that band started out, I was 18 years old. So that was my reality all the way up until I quit the band. And even then, you know, Guns N’ Roses has a nasty way of sticking around Picture Quote #1

The scary thing is that this band was founded in 1988, and back then it was Guns N’ Roses, L.A. Guns and , like, ‘What chick am I gonna be with tonight?’ - it was that mentality, you know, around a keg Picture Quote #1

What does surprise me, though, is the amount of attention this band [Guns’n’Roses] has garnered 11 years after the original lineup broke up. That’s an interesting phenomenon. It was even interesting back in the day. I mean, [we were] this glorified garage band. It was a great band, but it was not the kind of band you expected to become what it has Picture Quote #1

If I had to name one thing that probably causes more conflict within the band, it’s probably the fact that I’m the girl, and it takes much longer with hair and makeup and wardrobe. But they’ve gotten used to it. It’s one of those things I think they realize that when they say she’ll be ready in 10 minutes, it normally means 15 or 20 Picture Quote #1

I love festivals in that people seem to let their hair down more. I love that people run from stage to stage. I love going as a performer because you get to see band that you wouldn’t necessarily go see Picture Quote #1

If you take a band like Nirvana, their biggest hits are structurally the same as even a hair metal band’s biggest hits. The structure’s not different - the attitude was different. Except it really wasn’t. It seemed a little more human Picture Quote #1

My mum had this idea I was going to be this long-haired hippie playing guitar and bought me one when I was 13, but my little brother picked it up instead and was such a natural, he kept it! Io Echo is a band my brother now plays in; they’re really good Picture Quote #1

I prefer for a woman’s most private of areas to have as much hair as Carlos Santana’s entire band, head to toe, circa 1972 Picture Quote #1
