Tour Quotes

I can remember back to my early tour days when some fellows didn’t think I’d last too long. Nothing physical - they said it was my swing. Some said it was too much of a ‘muscle swing’ to stand the test of time. One fellow predicted I wouldn’t get past 30 out there Picture Quote #1

When I finally finished the ‘Two Suns’ tour, which went on for quite a long time, I felt like a bit of a husk. And I remember thinking, ‘I need to spend some time in one place, and just be at home.’ So I guess the first year of that three and a half years was spent just trying to kind of get back to normal again Picture Quote #1

I’d like to tour with the Backstreet Boys because I love them so much Picture Quote #1

Just about every player on tour has a bad back. It’s just one of those games that does mess you up a little bit. You’ve got to keep looking after it Picture Quote #1

Back in 93 and 94, when ‘Dookie’ was being made, my dad built this tour bus for us, out of a bookmobile. We toured in it for the first year. It was a really bad idea, by the way Picture Quote #1

If you’ve lived a bad life, they send you to Hell. But if you’ve been truly wicked, they give you a tour of Heaven first Picture Quote #1

I used to be an over-packer! It took me a while to be smart about what I brought with me. I used to tour with a huge bag full of clothes and another one full of shoes because I wanted to have choices. And I ended up wearing the same pair of shoes all the time! Picture Quote #1

I think in my case winning fans came as a result of winning tournaments. Certainly, I didn’t have too many supporters when I came on Tour. I didn’t look like an athlete, I was overweight, had a crew cut, baggy clothes and on top of that I didn’t smile much. I was very serious about my game, literally and figuratively the heavy Picture Quote #1

I’ve always chosen my band members based on their sense of humor. It might sound stupid, but it means not only are they fun to live with on a tour bus for years, but humor implies intelligence Picture Quote #1

She let me in during her tour, in London. Her band members - especially Lenny Kaye - were shocked at the fact that I was filming Patti [Smith] Picture Quote #1

When I’m traveling on tour, one of my favorite things to do is to throw a baseball cap on and go to a Target. The company has always been good to me. They’ve got such a great creative team Picture Quote #1

In general, we like to play as a band - guitar, piano, and voice. We also tour with a bass player, a drummer, and somebody who plays keyboard and guitar. We try to play all of our parts and flesh it out to get a lush sound, while also keeping the energy of a three-piece punk act. We want to be the best of all possible worlds Picture Quote #1

I’m getting paid to tour and travel and I don’t have to work a shitty job. And it’s weird because you like start getting pissed off about that Picture Quote #1

I was very lucky to have had the opportunity to tour with the Beastie Boys and watched almost every set they played on all those dates. Why not? You do your set and then you get to see the Beasties play? Best deal in town Picture Quote #1

I’m living the dream. I’ve got a big tour bus, an incredible band, a big house, and a family that are all taken care of through my music. I’ve got a beautiful wife and three beautiful kids Picture Quote #1

I’ve been on the tour for many, many years. It’s time for me to go now, before it’s too late Picture Quote #1

I live on the edge of Bath. It’s really lovely, but its very loveliness freaks me out a bit. It’s peaceful, a great antidote to the craziness of being on tour, but sometimes I feel as though I’ve retired Picture Quote #1

I have late-stage Lyme disease. I was misdiagnosed for many, many years and told I had lupus, MS, Crohn’s disease, even degenerative arthritis. And finally in 2010, I got the correct diagnosis, because on the last Le Tigre tour, I was having several seizures a day and at times not being able to brush my own teeth Picture Quote #1

I think everyone lifts themselves that little bit extra for the Tour de France, being the pinnacle of our cycling calendar Picture Quote #1

The craziest part of being on tour is being overseas and having crazed fans so far away from home. They don’t speak English, but they still know the lyrics. That’s a trip Picture Quote #1

When you tour, it’s so hard on the body. Being in one place is cool. It’s a more stable environment Picture Quote #1

In the past, when I’d recorded during a break in a tour, it was so easy to sing, because I felt strong. Also, like so many new mothers, I wasn’t getting a lot of sleep, and sleeping is such a huge part of being able to sing Picture Quote #1

I would do a Byrds tour or a Byrds record in a minute. I miss that band now. I’ve tried to convince Roger over and over to do it, but he’s not interested. Music isn’t something you can legislate into being Picture Quote #1

I tour alone. There’s no sound check, no back up. I stay with the hosts; I am in a family home and it’s really nourishing. I just have to remember after the show not to run out into the living room in my pyjamas. Every day, it’s a new relationship being built. It’s odd and wonderful Picture Quote #1

I’m dedicating my time to going on tour and basically juggling music, modeling, and being a mother. Being a mother is obviously the most important Picture Quote #1

For us as entertainers traveling, the schedule gets really crazy - flying all the time, being on a bus tour, changing hotels every day. And it’s challenging Picture Quote #1

Being my own boss and working inside an industry that’s not really an industry, I need to keep busy and keep working. The only way to make money in music - unless you’re managing someone - is to tour, and even that depends on where you are at Picture Quote #1

When I’m on tour, I’m in a new city every single night, and the energy and the crowds and the kids and the screaming and them knowing every single word of my music and being onstage is such an energetic feeling with a big payoff Picture Quote #1

There’s this whole thing of being two people. You are the person you want to be - the writer - and then there’s this weird other life of going on tour and talking about the writing. And that really is weird Picture Quote #1
