I like the brand Band of Outsiders. Their suits are cut really slim, for smaller framed gentlemen.

On Jesus’ rock, my life abounds; all other floors are slippery grounds. His love for me, is mercy band; any other love is sinking sand.

Well, I think we’re the greatest rock ‘n’ roll band in the world.

Some people even went off to form another band, Power Station.

We’re not a political band. We don’t want to tell people what to do or what to think. We just want to tell them to think.

I think a cool band name would be War Dwarf. Of course, I’m entirely too tall and peaceful to be a member. Not to mention nonmusical.

And for once a band of thieves in ripped up jeans got to rule the world

The Black-eyed Peasants.

It’s nice to finally have a CD out which reflects my songwriting, my singing and the band that I have.

None of the other guys in the band really sang, so that’s when I brought Roy Clark in.

With my voice and my band, I can do anything.

I want to start a band called the Band-Aids. Free coffee for all who come to our show. We’d perform for the deaf and the asleep.

When a band like Blondie re-forms, you wish them the best.

Sometimes the problem is not the people in the band, but the people around the band.

I said that the only way I could have a band that would work in the format of my show is if the band were crap. So if I have a band they’d have to really suck.

That’s probably half the reason I wanted to be in a band – I wanted to see the world.

We were orphans before we were ever the sons of these songs.

I need the money. People don’t understand how little money you make in a band.

What I’ve always lacked is a really strong band to back me up.

Venom was a band that strongly influenced the image and the idea behind Slayer.

Simon’s band never actually produced any music. Mostly they sat around in Simon’s living room, fighting about potential names and band logos. She sometimes wondered if any of them could actually play an instrument. ‘What’s on the table?’ ‘We’re choosing between Sea Vegetable Conspiracy and Rock Solid Panda.’ Clary shook her head. ‘Those are both...

Some people’s glasses are half full. I’m the one drinking them. Some people have forgotten that Pluto is still a planet. I still remember my childhood. Some people are vegans. I have common sense.Some people call me Maurice. Some people call me the Gangsta of Love. Some people just want to live…but me, I’m the...

The live setting is always better for me. I usually thrive at live. I feel like having a band behind me and being able to interact with the crowd helps boost my energy up.

When you’re in a band that’s so big when you’re young, you kind of lose your identity a little bit. You just become part of the band. I just needed to get away from it.

I always told the people at Cal Arts that if they wanted me to do Jazz studies, first of all, there couldn’t be a big band within 500 miles and that I could do what I wanted to do. And they said I could.

A band should be more famous than an individual, because all else being equal, the band has more mothers and fathers to lend support.

The sky is full of dreams, but you don’t know how to fly.

I love the sound of the trees in the breeze. If the forest is so clearly musical, why can’t it play the guitar while I sing Nirvana covers?

I certainly didn’t want to be in a punk rock band, because I had already been in a punk rock band. I wanted to be in a band that could do anything – like Led Zeppelin.

Being in a band turns you into a child and keeps you there.

But the reality is that we are a folk band.

I had a dream about you. You were the lead guitarist in a band with no voice, and you were holding auditions for lead singer. Everybody in line in front of me and behind me was a mime, so I felt confident I’d get the gig. I felt my performance was excellent, like Axl Rose...

I grew up in a utopia, I did. California when I was a child was a child’s paradise, I was healthy, well fed, well clothed, well housed. I went to school and there were libraries with all the world in them and after school I played in orange groves and in Little League and in...

I wanted to be in a band that shared ideas and were in it together.

The fifth member of my band is my non-profit work.

I believe men belong in the garage, because that’s where the dog food is stored. And the band is kept there. Auditions start after I move the car.

Jealousy, turning saints into the seaSwimming through sick lullabiesChoking on your alibis

A great band name would be Tickling Whiskers. Especially if the lead singer is a cat. I’d love to audition for backup dancer.

Those who serve and those who ruleLepers, kings and mindless foolsEmpire leaders, tyrant’s toolsAll will fade with timeHail the cowards, brave at heartThe ugly and the beautifulThose who never felt their soulsAll live transient lives

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.

I learned to play piano in a rock n’ roll context or band context from country records – you know, Floyd Cramer – and from the Beatles and the Rolling Stones and Stax. And none of those are keyboard records.

I’d like to make the argument that The Cars were the first garage band.

I create my own lyrics. I have a great band. I have a drummer from East Berlin.

I play in a band called ‘Moi non plus’ with some friends.

Pantera is the only band I’ve ever been in, and at the start we used to play covers to make a living.

I broke up the band in the office in Gerrard Street.

Paul Butterfield and I had a band together at one point.

When you are in a band for a number of years you loose your identity in a way. You become a part of that band and then all of a sudden you are not part of that band. You are still the band without the other two members.

This band – because this is myself on electric and acoustic guitars – we’ve done three tours together now and I really, really like it which is why I did the DVD as well.

Maybe you’ll change Abandon all your wicked waysMake amends and start anew againMaybe you’ll seeAll the wrongs you did to meAnd start all over, start all over again.Who am i kidding?Now, lets not get overzealous hereYoure always been a huge piece of shitIf i could kill you i wouldBut it’s frowned upon in all fifty...
