Famous Quotes & Sayings

Matthew Caws

When we were 14, it was Cost of Living. Then later, it was Because Because Because. That band was real ambitious and networking, looking for a deal. And that sucked, so we broke up. Nada Surf was formed for fun.

Steve-O

When I was a kid, I loved a heavy metal band called Motley Crue. I was thirteen when they came to my city, and I called every hotel in the Yellow Pages asking for a room by the name of their manager in hopes of meeting the band. After two or three hours of calling hotels, I got through, and the manager's brother answered the phone.

Wayne Coyne

We remixed them in 5.1, which doesn't sound like much, but let me tell you it's really a crazy, complicated thing to take these things that you did almost 15 years ago and revisit 'em in this format that only became available a couple years ago. A lot of bands can't do that because they don't have their own recordings. But we've always recorded ourselves, so it's a matter of me just going to the back room and grabbing the tapes and sort of putting them back on the reel. It's a weird treat.

Dianne Nolan

We remember Alex and his family in our prayers. We have cards going out to the members of the pep band and our team wants to do something as a tribute to Alex in his remembrance.

Adam Gollner

We respect Band Aid's ability to raise so much money for relief efforts, but their lyrics seem so misguided and inappropriate. Africa isn't a land 'where nothing ever grows' and 'no rain nor river flows.' And how are lines such as, 'Well, tonight, thank God it's them instead of you' supposed to be helpful?

Bob Hartley

We're going to pick up whatever is left of him when it is over. I just hope the Finnish team will supply the elastic bands (used to treat groin injuries) when he comes back.

When we formed the band in 1970, we set out to try to write great songs like the songs we heard when we were growing up,

Daron Malakian

When we first started the band here in LA, Janes Addiction was the band we looked up to. They came out at a time when there was a lot of glam rock and hair bands and they got put into that category, but they stood out because they were doing their own thing. We were kind of caught in the same kind of situation at another time: there were a lot of new-metal bands and wed get put into that category even though we didnt fit. Its funny that now theres bands like Mars Volta doing this prog-rock thing thats kinda getting popular, people put us in that genre now. That may be closer to the truth, but I think Hypnotized is going to go further in terms of getting people to understand what were doing.

Brian Setzer

When I was a kid, I found out about Eddie Cochran and Gene Vincent through the Beatles and the Stones doing covers of rockabilly songs,

What they're doing here in Rock Star:INXS is revolutionary. No other band has done anything like this before and I think it's a very, very smart move.

Dan Kendig

When we came back out on floor, we had five gymnasts who took that time to rock and roll and that was fun to see. Then we went to vault and rocked there with five great vaults to seal the win.

Andrew Bogut

When we have lapses defensively, then we start throwing rocks at the rim. It all goes downhill at once. We don't get stops and they score and we come down and shoot up rocks. That's the problem with us. One thing happens to us (defensively) and we turn it over or take a bad shot on the next possession and it all collapses.

Neil Shubin

When we got back into the lab, we removed the rock from the bone, and we began to find some really significant stuff.

Daron Malakian

Tom Smith

When we first got together, the idea was to go out and have fun and play rock and roll. We just go out and do our best and the most important thing is to have fun. It's infectious. When we're up on stage having fun, then the crowd is having fun, too.

Tom Ferguson

We're going to play these games in 2006. By that I mean, they're not freshmen anymore. When you play a freshman in the first or second game of the year, you kind of watch with a hand over one eye. This far along in the season, they're athletic enough, they're smart enough and they're tough enough.

Eric Schmidt

We're going to figure out our roles. And I think last night they were just a little confused at what Warroad was throwing at them. But we're smart as basketball players.

Charlotte McKinney

Whenever people talk about dyslexia, it's important to know that some of the smartest people in the world, major owners of companies, are dyslexic. We just see things differently, so that's an advantage. I just learn a different way; there's nothing bad about it.
