“When I play with the full band, you get to be larger than life, you feel larger than life, and that particular moment in the song where there's passion, you've got nine guys behind you, all driving that sound and that feeling with you. That's like surfing a huge wave, because once you start you really can't stop it, you got it going down a huge mountain.” FeelsPlayMomentsFeelingsGuySongPassionSoundBehindsParticularHugeBandMountainWaveDrivingNineSurfingBehind YouLarger Than Life Author:Jason Mraz
“At least here in Stockholm if you go out to any of our 4 metal clubs and talk to ten guys you can be sure nine of them play in a band! The bad thing is there is no underground movement here anymore.

“I really enjoy touring period! I had another band called Killing Machine, we went out on tour which was only fifteen shows & we went out in a really old motor home. That had to be the most fun. I didn't have to do radio at nine in the morning everyday. It was me & a bunch of friends. The singer was my tattoo artist. My girlfriend would fly in & we would sleep in a hammock above the bed the band were sleeping in [laughs]. I like that stuff that's really fun, I like the camping experience.” ShowsHomeArtistFunStuffEnjoySleepMorningLaughingPeriodsBedBandMachinesKillingEverydayRadioSingersNineBunchGirlfriendFifteenTattooMotorTouringMy GirlfriendCampingSleeping InHammocks Author:Tracii Guns
“My musical background in Tyler, Texas was quite outstanding. Uh, I grew up with, uh, with high school teachers who were in bands, they could play music. And we had a nine piece band there in Tyler, and I joined them when I was about, oh, 15 years old and traveled all over Texas in that band, playing for the elite oil people. Hah. And um, I was making about 50 bucks a night, and uh, it taught me, they taught me how to find my timing and to learn the songs that I wanted.” PeopleYearsPlayWantedSchoolNightSongTeacherPiecesTaughtGrewBandGrew UpHigh SchoolMusicalOilNineBackgroundsTexasElitesTimingTraveledOutstandingBucksSchool TeachersHigh School Teachers Author:Carl Gardner
