Bands Quotes

If journalists ask you again and again about the same bands, you’ll end up saying you hate them just because you’re so fed up with being asked all those stupid questions Picture Quote #1

Certainly, there are huge, multiplatinum bands whose singers command their audience’s attention. Sadly, much of the time they have little to say Picture Quote #1

...bands fall out. But at the end of the day, they’re like family. You get back together because you have to, because you’re stronger together than you are apart Picture Quote #1

Let me be clear: I’m a believer in a robust military, which is essential for backing up diplomacy. But the implication is that we need a balanced tool chest of diplomatic and military tools alike. Instead, we have a billionaire military and a pauper diplomacy. The U.S. military now has more people in its marching bands than the State Department has in its foreign service - and that’s preposterous Picture Quote #1

I started listening to and playing other music in the 90s. It was after hearing other bands, like Bad Religion, cover Ramones songs that I started to like our songs again Picture Quote #1

James, that’s a bad situation. I’m not saying it’s not repairable, but it’s pretty far. When you go from being in one of the best bands in the world to some cover band... as far as I’m concerned, he was playing down at the pub Picture Quote #1

I love music, and I love drumlines. I like school bands a lot. There’s nothing wrong with cheerleading, but I’d rather be a band geek. It’s a little more interesting Picture Quote #1

You know, with bands like Kiss back out on the road and Aerosmith coming out, we are going to be a band like that, in the sense that it’s a big rock band Picture Quote #1

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is a joke - the fact that Madonna is in before Rush and Kiss. Those two bands have influenced so many groups and people other than in metal Picture Quote #1

If it wasn’t for KISS, there would be no Guns N’ Roses. Bands like that made Guns N’ Roses. We were five guys with five personalities and five different influences. The stars were aligned for us Picture Quote #1

It’s hard for people to realize now, but my gosh, when I was in school, you could not name a group that was less cool than Kiss. Going in to school with a Kiss T-shirt, you were asking for ridicule. In 77, they were one of the biggest bands in the world, but by 80, there was a severe backlash Picture Quote #1

As far as One Direction goes, and Mindless Behavior and all the other bands, I’m all for it, and if there’s ever an opportunity to work with them, that’d be great Picture Quote #1

Maybe it’s because One Direction was just on ‘SNL,’ or because I’m playing The Wanted on my Top 40 show, but in terms of boy bands, we’re seeing this resurgence, and it’s happening, whether you like it or not! Picture Quote #1

When I go into rehearsal rooms and meet with bands, they’re genuinely excited to be with me because of what I’ve done as an artist, not because of anything else. There’s that whole celebrity rock star thing, and artists are into artists who have been able to achieve success their way Picture Quote #1

I first started going to shows when I was about 16 - seeing local bands. I mean, I loved music before that, and I played a bit of guitar when I was younger and thought maybe I’d become a guitar teacher or something, but when I saw other kids doing it, I was like, ‘Whoa, these are great bands! I can do it, too.’ Picture Quote #1

Barry White, Smokey Robinson and Curtis Mayfield are big influences for me. But I’m also a metal head. I was in a bunch of punk rock bands. The Bee Gees, hip-hop and the Beach Boys are just as much of an influence on me as Smokey Picture Quote #1

I’m an out and out basic man and AC/DC are one of the best rock’n’roll bands in the world, doing things just to the basics, you know Picture Quote #1

I was in bands, but they were punk bands, and you plug in the guitars, you turn them up really loud, you’ve got four or five other people on stage with you, you’ve got some protection from when they throw lighters. You can always hide behind the lead singer or the bass player Picture Quote #1

I want my relationship with my girlfriend to be built on trust, not toothpicks, rubber bands, and lentil beans Picture Quote #1

The Stones were more dangerous than other bands of the Sixties. It looked like they had more fun than the Beatles - like they stayed up later Picture Quote #1

I was such a massive fan of all the 60s pop bands, but if I had to single out one band, it would definitely be The Beatles Picture Quote #1

The first songs I learned was ‘Crazy’ by Patsy Cline and ‘At Last’ by Etta James. I had been growing up with the Beatles, Pink Floyd, great bands Picture Quote #1

I was playing in bands before high school even. My first band I was in at 14. And we were playing just Beatles Picture Quote #1

I knew the Beatles songs and how influential they are to other bands, but I’m not a fanatic, so I could look outside the box and observe Picture Quote #1

The age of 18 seemed the right time to try something different in my life. Moving to the U.K. was a risk, and I was never confident that I could ever make a full-time living being a musician, but I had to try. Initially, I worked as a jazz musician in pubs or with bands Picture Quote #1

I’m not into bands for the sake of being into bands. I’ve grown past that. There was a time in my life when I was that guy Picture Quote #1

People in bands don’t have the kind of conversations people might think they have. The best things about being in a band are the things that are unsaid Picture Quote #1

I always thought of indie-rock as being rock music by bands that were on independent labels, and that’s a great thing Picture Quote #1

Anyone interested in the world generally can’t help being interested in young adult culture - in the music, the bands, the books, the fashions, and the way in which the young adult community develops its own language Picture Quote #1

I enjoy the collaboration. I always envied people in bands who got to have that interaction. I’ve done so many albums where I’ve been in the studio for 14 hours a day for six months just trying to come up with things on my own. It’s a nice change helping other people with their music and not being all about what I’m trying to do myself Picture Quote #1
