“if I hadn't gone to a private Christian school, I'd never have built up enough animosity to want to have started a band. And now that I have one, the fact that they are giving me such resistance and publicity, they have made me far bigger than they'd ever have wanted me to have become. So I guess in a strange way the Christians have influenced me the most.” IfsWayWantGivingMadeEnoughFactsWantedSchoolChristianGoneStrangeBandBuiltBiggerResistancePublicityAnimosityChristian Schools Author:Marilyn Manson
“I consider us to be one of the first Internet-based bands, especially because we basically started our entire band via the Internet. Before MySpace Music even existed, we had a band MySpace page. We were one of the first fifty bands on PureVolume(.com), and we really built everything from the Internet. That's how we started talking to record labels, that's how we booked our first tours. Without the Internet social networking, like Twitter, we definitely wouldn't be where we are today. It is a huge part of the band.” FirstsTodaySocialTalkingRecordsHugeInternetBandPagesBuiltLabelsFiftyNetworkingSocial NetworkingSocial NetworkRecord Labels Author:Jack Barakat
“[Paul McCartney] never, at the time, was going back to leaning back on the roots of his old band. He always built upon where he was, which was in London. And he didn't overuse synthesizers. He used them just enough. It's such a cool sound.” EnoughUsedSoundBandBuiltRootsLondonSynthesizersLeaning Back Author:Fred Armisen
