“I've always been a fan of the band setting. I've always been a believer in bands, and I've always been in bands. That's where my comfort zone is. So to stand outside of that, that was never my intention or goal. I never had the dream of, 'I'm gonna go into all these bands as a spring board for my solo work.' But life takes you on different journeys sometimes. I ended up playing a bunch of songs and some of them I really liked.” DifferentSometimesDreamSongGoalJourneyFansComfortBandSpringIntentionBelieverSettingBunchSettingsBoardsZoneSoloComfort ZoneStanding Out Author:Frank Iero
“I think the big thing for Simple Plan is that we were able to keep the band members, the same five guys, the same lineup from the start. That's not easy. We grew up together. We're friends. We come from the same world. We've always had the same dreams and goals. I think we realized, as the years go by, how precious it is to have that, to build that, to see so many bands break up... it makes us realize how different we are to all that. We're really proud of that.” ThinkingWorldYearsDifferentDreamBigsAbleTogetherGuyEasyGoalRealizingSimpleBreakFivePlansGrewProudBandMembersGrew UpBig ThingsDreams And GoalsBand MembersSimple Plan Author:Chuck Comeau
“God's righteousness and His unchangeable law make Christianity a stumbling block for many. Organizations and individuals carry a political and moral agenda that aims to remove all obstacles to their sin. Their goal is to 'break God's bands asunder and cast away His cords.' They counsel together to rid themselves of the law of God; anyone who preaches the gospel or stands for righteousness stands in the way of their agenda.” WayChristianTogetherLawPoliticalIndividualGoalReligiousSinMoralChristianityBreakBandOrganizationAimCastsObstaclesBlockRemoveAgendasRighteousnessStumblingCordsUnchangeableStumbling BlocksCast Away Book:Raising the Standard/Reclaiming Your World for God Source: Raising the Standard/Reclaiming Your World for God
“I mean, Lady Gaga is trying to be a freak or whatever but that quality of being very meaningly and heartfelt, but also having a sense of humor about it, bands don't do that anymore. Lady Gaga's songs are cheesy. The Beatles weren't cheesy. That's the hardest thing with music: to not be cheesy, but also be meaningful. That's the goal, I think.” ThinkingTryingMeanSongGoalQualityBandMeaningfulHardestSense Of HumorFreakHardest ThingHeartfeltCheesyGagaVery Mean Author:Mac DeMarco
