Bands Quotes

I wish there were more good new bands that would light a fire and offer a little friendly competition that would be welcomed Picture Quote #1

These new metal bands are going out, getting drunk and going to strip clubs, and they’ll be doing the same in thirty years. There isn’t even an interesting self-destructive quality to it . . . it’s just dumb Picture Quote #1

There’s a whole apparatus for indie bands now, but back in the eighties it was just getting built. The early people really took it on the chin Picture Quote #1

I think that people like getting their money’s worth, so it’s cool to have a load of bands in a similar genre Picture Quote #1

As far as bands doing that in a way where they think they’re going to fight the government, the only people they’re really hurting is the fans Picture Quote #1

I don’t really know what’s going to happen in the future, but I think it’s really important for bands to have strong connection with their fans Picture Quote #1

I’ve played in bands with A-team players around. But unless they can play together, it doesn’t do any good. And you can take guys who may not stand on their own up against a bunch of individuals they might be compared to, but you put ‘em together, man, and they are unique unto themselves in a way that no one else can touch Picture Quote #1

I didn’t try out for bands when I was younger. I got into guitars intensely a couple of years into playing so much by the time I was graduating high school I was accepted into Berklee College of Music Picture Quote #1

When kids can’t afford to see it anymore maybe we’ll have a whole resurgence of garage bands all over America and this New Wave thing will start to mean something on a grass roots level Picture Quote #1

I get a lot from great 90s artists like Juliana Hatfield, The Pixies, and bands like That Dog and The Breeders Picture Quote #1

I like Iron Maiden and a few other bands, but by and large I don’t like metal music. Most of it simply put reeks. This meant that it was no great loss for me to drop the metal music altogether 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

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

I agree with you about the music of today. It lacks style and emotion. I can’t relate to it either, as for grunge music, well that was the death kneel for a lot of the glam metal hair bands of the 80’s, so I really do not care for grunge. I miss the 80’s as well, it was a truly great decade for music Picture Quote #1

I don’t think I understood guitar rock as well as I probably should have. I don’t think I understood bands like Led Zeppelin. In their era, everyone had such a regard for them because of them ushering in rock n’ roll and this larger-than-life lifestyle. But then they had these songs that would just not stop. I didn’t fully get it Picture Quote #1

I gave guitar lessons. I tried to join bands. My mom always said it was obvious that nothing was going to stop me Picture Quote #1

When I was in high school, there were these British blues-rock-type bands with really good guitar players that would jam on one song for half an hour. And as much as I was amazed by some of those guitar players, seeing them prompted me to make a note that that’s not something I could do Picture Quote #1

There are a lot of bands that have a huge appeal, but I don’t understand why. Guns n’ Roses. U2. But you know, that’s just my thing. Music is pretty personal Picture Quote #1

This is my own little rock theory: In my mind, Nirvana slayed the hair bands. They shot the top off the poodles Picture Quote #1

Rock n’ roll was one thing, and then they chopped off the ‘roll’ and called it ‘rock,’ which became a sort of umbrella term for anything with a guitar in it. Like hair bands. How could we possibly believe that? It’s just gotten downright silly, to the point where now it’s sort of become like professional wrestling Picture Quote #1

The 80s were the worst period. You had these horrible pop bands growing their hair and calling themselves metal Picture Quote #1

When I used to put an album out, I knew everyone on the charts. There weren’t that many bands. Now, I couldn’t even name half the new groups Picture Quote #1

Certain punk bands were influential because I thought, If they can do that then I can .Hanging around those bands was how I started my first band - In Praise of Lemmings Picture Quote #1

I was brought up on choirs and brass bands. They formed the music of my childhood. When I heard the Treorchy Male Choir at the Royal Variety Performance it brought back such happy memories. You have your own eminent place in the history of British music. You stand for excellence in a great tradition and your work for charity is both an example and an inspiration Picture Quote #1

I have had success throughout the years. Some of the hard rock bands today don’t have the history that I have Picture Quote #1

I started playing guitar at, like, 12 or 13 and just rock bands mostly. I had a punk rock band and hard core bands and all that Picture Quote #1

From the small clubs of the Harlem Renaissance where he began playing saxophone to world tours for the biggest of the big bands, Benny Carter redefined American jazz. From the start, his fellow musicians said the way he played the sax was amazing. They say that about me, too. (Laughter.) But I don’t think they mean it in quite the same way Picture Quote #1

I really hate it when I see other bands selling their music to commercials Picture Quote #1

A lot of bands have the enthusiasm kicked out of them by playing really dreary pub venues that just churn bands through Picture Quote #1

When you look at bands like Take That, who have come back bigger than ever, you can see there will always be a market for good pop bands Picture Quote #1
