“I understand why some women/girls/ladies don't want to be women-identified 'cuz it totally complicates your band identity and no one seems to pay much attention to the music or what you're doing. We have chosen to be girl-identified (although Billy isn't a girl!), because we want to encourage other women/girls to play music. When I was growing up, I found it discouraging to have all these women in bands not wanting to address the issue of gender...we're interested in what women are doing.” WantPlaySeemsGirlFoundPayAttentionGrowing UpIssuesGrowingIdentityBandGenderChosenAddressesDiscouragingCuz Author:Tobi Vail
“Chopper asked to be in our band back in 1999 (we already had chosen somebody else who ended up annoying us) and then we kept running into and hanging out with him at concerts and car shows. We became friends. He shares the same passions as we do and every time we ran into him he looked like he was ready to step on stage with the Cramps. He was in Mr. Badwrench and before that he was in the Maus Maus when he was a teenager.” ShowsRunningPassionStepsShareStageCarReadyBandChosenTeenagerRanHanging OutConcertsAnnoyingCrampsChoppers Author:Lux Interior
“The more confident you are, the more you can let go and believe that the people you've chosen to be in your circle are able to do what they say they're going to do and what they're really good at. It has made me a better band member, too.” PeopleBelieveMadeAbleBandLetting GoMembersCirclesChosenBand Members Author:Nikki Sixx
