I've never supported this concept of going after Napster. I think the rock bands who fought this were wrong.

In 1996, I was in was in an acoustic kind of rock band, we were called Feeble. We were just playing locally.

Thank you for the music, Sleater-Kinney. This gang of three was the best American punk rock band ever. Ever.

My band and I are even closer. They've grown with me over four years, so we're closer and closer and closer.

I just try to approach and serve the music in the way that I think is right for the band I'm in at the time.

I do some solo, acoustic stuff, but I also like plugging in my electric guitar and playing loud with a band.

As you grow, it feels hopelessly corporate but it really is worth putting in place these compensation bands.

I like those guys who brought dub into live band context too, Peaking Lights. Joe Gibbs & The Professionals!

Most bands people have side projects and it's not considered a death threat as it was say, with The Beatles.

It's a lot easier having a girlfriend in a band than if you were going out with someone that lived in London.

I'm wallowing in the whole idea of just being a guy out there with a band, with songs. It's a real enjoyment.

Bands have always written songs against what they see as wrong. Ronald Reagan really made for a lot of songs.

I stayed a kid for a pretty long time, and the logistics of being in a band, I did not take seriously at all.

I don't worry about new young bands. The bounty of life is infinite and so is music and so are opportunities.

Interscope is run more like a rock band than a record company. It's run in a very spontaneous, heartfelt way.

A lot of bands that reunite do it for the wrong reasons. They do it for the bucks and everybody can sense it.

I never studied anything, really. I didn't study the drums. I joined bands and made all the mistakes onstage.

The Smashing Pumpkins was never meant to be a small band. It was going to either be a big band, or a no band.

When we recorded 'Iowa,' we jammed, we went through the songs, we played as a band and we recorded as a band.

There's never been a particular band that I've followed religiously. But I do tend to listen to sadder music.

The fact that you can't base a coffeehouse on any other rock band is the other rock bands' problem, not mine.

I met Scott Stapp when the band was first coming up, great guy. I haven't seen him for years, but a great guy.

I think that people like getting their money's worth, so it's cool to have a load of bands in a similar genre.

That makes it even more offensive to me that she's interested in our band and she did something for Slaughter.

I'd been performing in bands since I was 12 which represented, at that point, about 16 years of playing music.

I know I'm in the band and everything but sometimes I just have to rock out to the John Frusciante Experience.

Mrs. Ballinger is one of the ladies who pursue Culture in bands, as though it were dangerous to meet it alone.

I have had success throughout the years. Some of the hard rock bands today don't have the history that I have.

In 1973 we moved to the British Isle of Man, and I put my first band together for one year, named Melody Fair.

Fans these days seem to almost expect a response from band-members any time they tweet or leave a comment etc.

I tell you, when we travel with our own band and we're on the road... Well, I can't even believe this is work.

I'd like to be in a man band, but with Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr and Keith Richards. We'd have a rocky edge.

It is difficult to be that band that doesn't do things the way other bands do it. It's a blessing and a curse.

In Hawaii, some of the biggest radio stations are reggae. The local bands are heavily influenced by Bob Marley.

Somehow you'll escape all that waiting and staying. You'll find the bright places where Boom Bands are playing.

Every band I've been in, it's just become my total life. I feel like a child star - I've missed out on so much.

There are a lot of bands and performers whose careers are permanently derailed by spectacularly bad management.

I'm still an angry dude. I'm just older. I still push the band to be heavy and dark-that's always been my role.

The secret ballot makes a secret government; and a secret government is a secret band of robbers and murderers.

A missive to all you metal bands, the world is totally over the rock thing. Rock is deader than it's ever been.

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

When I joined the band I didn't know any of the tunes, and when I left the band I didn't know any of the tunes!

I was a jazz major in high school, in an all-jazz band. No matter what I do, it features my musical influences.

The music that I made in my band wasn't the expression of everything I was into. Bands are based on compromise.

What I see in a lot of music movies, or rock 'n' roll movies, that feature a band is that they're lip-synching.

Any time you play your horn, it helps you. If you get down, you can help yourself even in a rock 'n' roll band.

The ability for a woman to orally satisfy somebody in a rock band, that's important to a rock 'n' roll musician.

I still think of myself as punk, because the way I became empowered to play music is entirely due to punk bands.

When the second record came out, they started calling it The Band. I voted to call it The Crackers. I'm no fool.
