John Sebastian Quotations

Sometimes you really dig a girl, the moment you kiss her, And then you get distracted by her older sister.

...after using your stuff on a jug band full of instruments, all I can say is Thank You Dr. Duck !...

I certainly hear the Trombones Unlimited version of 'Daydream' in a lot of elevators.

I think that my past stands me in good stead in that it does have a certain strength for musicians.

In other words, musicians know that going back to the Spoonful, what we were doing was not copying.

But, what did happen is I went to Woodstock as a member of the audience. I did not show up there with a road manager and a couple of guitars. I showed up with a change of clothes and a toothbrush.

Geez, I wish I could tell you I had a whole bunch of '80s hair bands, you know something you really wouldn't expect, but I don't know that the music police would be that surprised, because most of the stuff that I am influenced by is in evidence in the music.

I'm seeing and hearing lots of B to B instruments, and everybody isn't, you know, using them... a lot of these guys are trying to do it on conventional guitars, although that has its own sound, and maybe its okay.

First of all, I think that is true, if you are a musician, particularly on the come, that you do have to end up in one of these musical centers, some way, to be viable, saleable and so on.

My father was a classical musician and my mother was a writer.
