“It's hard if you're just touring constantly. It's like, "What am I going to write about? I'm in the van, I'm playing another show..." I'm still writing about heartbreak that happened years ago. I don't see the point of writing and putting out another record until I can do something else.” IfsWritingYearsStillsI CanHardShowsCan DoRecordsHappenedYears AgoVansTouringCan Do Something Author:Sharon Van Etten
“In Van Halen there were moments, like in some of the ballads, I put my heart and soul into those records. Those lyrics when I sang 'em, I gave myself goosebumps.” HeartSoulMomentsRecordsMy HeartEmsVansHeart And SoulBalladsVan HalenGoosebumps Author:Sammy Hagar
“I grew up in a very musical household. My brother had KISS and Van Halen records, but my parents loved country and show tunes, so I had all of those records when a kid. I pretty much knew exactly what I was going to do at a young age. I loved album covers, I loved listening to a record and staring at the art while listening to it. When I got older and discovered paining, drawing and PhotoShop, I was able to do both simultaneously; I enjoy making both.” ArtCountryShowsKidsAgeAbleYoungParentEnjoyRecordsBrotherListeningGrewKissingGrew UpMusicalAlbumsDrawingStaringMy BrotherTunesHouseholdVansYoung AgeVan HalenPhotoshopAlbum CoversShow Tunes Author:Piggy D.
“I get to listen to a lot of this music again doing my DJ work on Little Steven's Underground Garage. To hear Van [Morrison] on Them's version of "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue"- what a vocal, and what an arrangement. Also, I get to hear so many records that I missed the first time around - The Chocolate Watchband, Roky Erikson. It's an audio food fest, a total privilege, a second chance.” FirstsLittlesChanceRecordsBabyFirst TimeBluePrivilegeVersionsChocolateArrangementsVansVocalSecond ChanceGarageDjsAudioErikson Author:Andrew Loog Oldham
