| "The hard-to-read fourth record, the transcendental fifth record and the murky sixth record." (what their next records will be like) "At this point, we're making music for our fans. Our fans know who we are. We're about songs, we're about trying to give you an album of great songs that hopefully you can start at one and go all the way to 12 and not press 'skip.' You can drive to it and you can incorporate it into the soundtrack of your life, which is the great thing about music. We made a record that's important to us, and somewhere ... someone's putting it into their car and it's a part of their life now. And that really gets us off." "Hey Mark McGrath. Wanna see my long sword?" (7/6/03 after Sugar Ray came out during Bent wearing MBT thongs) "I drive an SUV, and I do the grocery shopping. But I don't use coupons, and I won't let my wife use them either." "When people see me, it's like a Bigfoot sighting. Some days I'm signing autographs on grocery bags in the cereal aisle. Once, a delivery man came at 8 a.m. to hit me up for tickets. I'm half asleep, thinking, "Dude, you have to be kidding." So I said, 'Yeah, get back to me on that.'" "[The leader of Maroon 5, Adam Lavine's voice] make my balls tingle!" (yes, I am just as shocked as you are. But if that doesn't intice you to buy Maroon 5's album, then NOTHING will.) "I only worry about my looks when we shoot videos because those stay around for so long. It's okay to look like an idiot from day to day, but I don't want to be remembered like one forever!" "Bare with me, I'm an internet idiot." (his wonderful typo, not mine!) "We have the best fans in the world." "So, thank you guys so much for all your love and support." "When you write a novel, you have the luxury of ... going into detail. In a song, you don't. ... You have the rhythm, you have the tone, and the lyrics become the synopsis, like Cliffs Notes of all you want to say." "Unless we have clowns with firecrackers coming out of their butts or something, I don't think there's going to be anything out of the ordinary." (talking about the fall 2003 north american tour) "I feel like I have one job, and the little time I have off, I can't imagine giving myself another job. If I'd been given a script for 'Fight Club,' I'd have said, 'Oh, man! I HAVE to do it.'" "It kinda rolls along 'till the end, when you're ready to kill each other." "I'm like a 16-year-old kid, when my manager tells meI support anything that causes mass hysteria on children." someone wants to work with me, I'll go, 'Hey, I'd like to hang out with this guy!' It's based on love of music and whether I think we'll have a good time." "I have to write a song for her [Marisol] every year, or I'm out." Rob: We really have the greatest fans, not just sucking up. Especially our GD fans. They are like the hardcore fans there everyday. These women talk everyday; they've made friendships. Some of these women, they use their only vacation time, then they meet up and go to a show. And the show is only part of it. They get to hang out and just kinda "be" and that's a lot of fun. I'm glad there's a place on the website for that and them. Adam: Yeah, it's kinda like the community that we really started out and now we have nothing to do with, cause they run the show over there. Rob: Yeah, they run the place and now we are just one of the bands they like on there. Adam: It's their show, we just visit. "Find something worth dying for and live for it." "I support anything that causes mass hysteria on children." "Everyone in the world is a little bit fucked up, just let your freak-flag fly!" |
