Quote by -Tommy Lee
I announced to everyone that I was embarking on a solo tour. Not a music tour, but a tour of drugs and prostitutes.
Quote by -Tommy Lee
On our first record, man, I didn't know what I was doing. I was just playing. I was over playing. You're as green as you can be with no experience in recording or knowing how sometimes a song can work: when it's too much, when it's not enough, when it's not right.
Quote by -Tommy Lee

Quote by -Travis Barker

Quote by -Travis Barker

Quote by -Travis Barker
I'm a freak, everything has to be totally flat when I play. Ed Will, my jazz teacher, set up everything completely flat, and then you'd tilt your snare drum away from you, so I do that too. So my snare tilts away from me.
Quote by -Travis Barker
When I look at music, everything is blurred, and I like it that way. I grew up like that, hanging out with different types of people who listened to so many different types of music. I never wanted to be part of any one clique. I loved it all.
Quote by -Travis Barker
Life is like music, it must be composed by ear, feeling and instinct, not by rule. Nevertheless one had better know the rules, for they sometimes guide in doubtful cases, though not often.

Quote by -Sarah McLachlan
I've been a fan of old country music, like Willie Nelson, Patsy Cline. I think I'm drawn to it because of the sense of sadness and sort of loss that a lot of good old country music has.
Quote by -Sarah McLachlan
Music is very nebulous, and you can conjure up a lot of moods with music. But lyrics - they're a lot more tangible. They're much more specific. And you want to say something meaningful and creative and artistic and that tells a story and that takes people someplace else.
Quote by -Sarah McLachlan
I write music all the time. When I talk about having writer's block, it's more to do with lyrics than anything else.
Quote by -Sarah McLachlan
I think I've become a much better singer and a much better player. Years and years of playing a couple of hours every day will do that.
Quote by -Sarah McLachlan
Music gave me a sense that I was worthwhile and that I had something of value to offer the world even though everybody was telling me that I didn't.
Quote by -Sarah McLachlan
I'm not a media darling. I'm not on the cover of all these magazines. I just quietly do my thing.
Quote by -Sarah McLachlan

Quote by -Sarah McLachlan
Running is very rhythmic, and I have written a lot of lyrics while out running. It's a very musical exercise, and sometimes I like to sing when I run. Your whole body is doing the same thing.
Quote by -Sarah McLachlan
And music has always been incredibly cathartic for me, whether it's writing my own stuff or singing other people's music; it's very freeing.
Quote by -Sarah McLachlan
I've always been incredibly lucky that the music that I make, other people like it.
Quote by -Sarah McLachlan
When you're making music or playing a song, I find the moments when there are no instruments being played even stronger than when they are being played. Because they add tension. It's also an ego-less thing - a place where you have no ego - when you're with a bunch of musicians who stop and listen instead.
Quote by -Sarah McLachlan
In a sense, I'm always hearing music of some sort, whether it's people talking or surface noise or whatever, because there is no privacy. So when I'm by myself, I just kind of like to be and reflect, and I can't do that when I'm listening to music. Because it's someone else's reflections, not mine.
Quote by -Sarah McLachlan
I don't wash my hair every day, which may sound gross, but it's actually really bad for my hair.
