“Were not stars.... were all just dorks in a band.”

“We want to be the band to dance to when the bomb drops.”
Simon LeBon
“I refuse to dance. And I can't dance anyway. I'm not in a band for that.”
Liam Gallagher
“Metallica's the only band i've ever been in. I'm not sure that when it ends in five, ten years, I'm going to put an ad in the paper saying, 'stupid drummer looking for stupid people to play music with.' Metallica is it and I think when that ceases that's it.”
Lars Ulrich
“I AM NOT THIS WAY, THE WAY I AM, BECAUSE I'M IN A BAND. I'M IN A BAND BECAUSE I'M THIS WAY.”
David Lee Roth
“What (some) bands do is go, 'It's not important that I'm a girl, it's just important that I want to rock.' And that's cool. But that's more of an assimilationist thing. It's like the 'just want to be allowed to join the world as it is'; whereas I'm more into revolution and radicalism and changing the whole structure. What I'm into is making the world different fo me to live in.”
Kathleen Hanna
“I sang in a rock band when I was training as a lawyer. You know, not professional, we just did it for fun. We just did gigs all over Edinburgh and some in Glasgow and some at festivals.”
Gerard Butler
