In 1996, I was in was in an acoustic kind of rock band, we were called Feeble. We were just playing locally.
One of the things I feel very strong about is the achievement of the Band really being a complete band.
I am a Yes fan, ultimately. I've been a member of the band, but I was always a fan of the band first.
Well, a sort of epiphany: I was in a great band. And it's very cool to be at 53 and realise that when you were a kid you were in a great band.
But, then again, I wouldn't call myself an indie-rock supporter even if there are some really good bands out there and there will always be some real good new bands.
I always just wanted to be the singer or the bass player in the band. I'd love to have a band, where I was obviously the singer, but where it wasn't me, it wasn't my name.
I was kind of bored playing drums in a band. Which was depressing, because playing in the band was kind of a golden ticket.
I know that starting out as a young band, it's really easy to get lost with bands that sound the same or with the plethora of music that's out there.
I did the marching band all throughout junior high and high school. Music was one of my favorite things in school.
My mom was in a punk rock band called The Trash Women, and they toured and all of that. She had me when she was 17.
I have been doing merch' since I was 15 and in bands when I was a teenager - silk-screening shirts, making the emulsion in my mom's closet I converted into a dark room, through college. That's essentially how us bands survived was selling homemade t-...
I sang opera, I sang show tunes. I got into a rock band for a while. I've sung a lot of different things.
I'm in this band to give volume to various struggles throughout the world. To me, the tension in this band is a minimal sacrifice.
Professor McGonagall: The house of Godric Gryffindor has commanded the respect of the wizarding world for nearly ten centuries. I will not have you, in one night, besmirching that name by behaving like a babbling, bumbling band of baboons! Fred: [whi...
I still think the best metal bands have a blues feel. The first Black Sabbath album is kind of a bludgeoning of blues. Deep Purple also started out as a blues band.
I was such a massive fan of all the '60s pop bands, but if I had to single out one band, it would definitely be The Beatles.
I'm in a rock band - I don't have a day job! I am spoiled... a lot.
I wish I could tell you me and my rock band were traveling around, strung out. No, we were a family band. Straight Partridge Family.
It's valid that the Strokes and the Pleased have been influenced by some of the same bands. But it's invalid in the sense that we listen to the Strokes and try to sounds like them. I think that they are a good band.
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.
I love music, and I love drumlines. I like school bands a lot. There's nothing wrong with cheerleading, but I'd rather be a band geek. It's a little more interesting.
