Big Band Quotes (page 2)

Any accolades that anybody puts toward this band really makes me feel good, because I have devoted such a big part of my life to this band, making it what I want it to be. Charlie Daniels
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. Roger Andrew Taylor
Joining another big time rock band was the last thing I was looking for, but as the tour went on, I really dug playing to a lot of people, the band sounded great, and just being out there again, got me over my depression and so I decided to hop on board. Matt Cameron
I used to do this big rant at the end of some gigs with Ben Folds Five. The band broke into this big heavy metal thing and I started as a joke to scream in a heavy metal falsetto. I found myself saying things like: Feel my pain, I am white, feel my pain. Ben Folds
You win over people just like you win over a dog. You see a dog passing down the street with an old bone in his mouth. You don't grab the bone from him and tell him it's not good for him. He'll growl at you. It's the only thing he has. But you throw a big fat lamb chop in front of him, and he's going to drop that bone and pick up the lamb chop, his tail wagging to beat the band. And you've got a friend. Instead of going around grabbing bones from people... I'm going to throw them some lamb... David Wilkerson
Norman Granz quote: "The history of all big jazz bands shows was, first they played..."
The history of all big jazz bands shows was, first they played for dancing, and then they played for singing. Norman Granz
However, the radio and national media depend much more on the hype from a good record label, and from a " buzz " about a band, then from just one or two good shows. There are a lot of artists that have a ton of good press going for them, and still do not make it big in the US. Pat Garrett
Nirvana was like that- Nirvana was like the only band to come out of that- it was like the same thing, Seattle was like this whole scene and it was like this big scene that was thrust upon America. Jon Fishman
It breaks my heart to see these young, really talented bands getting chewed up into the system. I remember a time if you'd signed to a major label it was such a sell out! But now... unless you've signed to a big label, you're a failure now. Mike Peters
Sheryl Crow quote: "The bands that wrote the big, heroic rock songs - I really..."
The bands that wrote the big, heroic rock songs - I really wanted to make a record like that. Sheryl Crow
I think it would be very scary and very confusing if I didn't understand where people are coming from, but I've felt the exact same way for so many other bands, growing up. It's not really a big deal. Jon Crosby
Tom Verlaine quote: "I don't see us as a big media gimmick band. We don't have a..."
I don't see us as a big media gimmick band. We don't have a cultivated appearance or anything like Kiss. Tom Verlaine
Levon Helm quote: "The Band never really played big concert tours. We never sold..."
The Band never really played big concert tours. We never sold millions and millions of albums. Levon Helm
Juliana Hatfield quote: "People make such a big deal about how people in bands look,..."
People make such a big deal about how people in bands look, especially if you're a girl. Juliana Hatfield
The pirating thing is bad. The people it hurts the most are the ones you least think it hurts. It's not the big Britney Spears albums that are being pirated; it's the indie bands that don't have two cents to their name. Rob Zombie
