Quotes from Musicians

-- We were one of the first bands signed in that late 80s time period. It was a real exciting time to be playing music. "Those are some years I will always cherish" says Jerry Dixon of Warrant

-- As far as I'm concerned, the bars have just gotten a little bigger says Frankie Banali of Quiet Riot

-- "There were a lot of assholes, a lot of Los Angeles jerks who said I would never make it says Kevin Dubrow of Quiet Riot

-- I think Motley Crue has broken down a lot of barriers as far as what you can get away with. I don't think people will soon forget us because we are true to our art. We live it and breathe it. We are Motley Crue 24 hours a day and whether I'm on the beach or in the back of somebody's car with some slut, I'm still in Motley Crue says Nikki Sixx of Motley Crue

-- 'We don't care about making money, we just don't want to be losing money. So we've scaled things back... but it's still the same raw, dirty rock 'n' roll - no holds barred.' says Nikki Sixx of Motley Crue

-- Yeah, I just want to say that I read what Joe Elliott [DEF LEPPARD] said, slagging off bands like POISON and WINGER. I've gotten used to being the punching bag, I take it all! But POISON is really good live and Bret Michaels' own response to Joe was awesome. I also love DEF LEPPARD and I think they're a great band. But if Joe Elliott wants to meet me at an L.A. club of his choice with an acoustic guitar, leave the Pro Tools at home and I'll open up a can of whoop-ass on him! says Kip Winger of Winger

-- Jani is such a talented guy but he just can't seem to keep it together. He'd be on stage and after three songs he'd throw the mic down and say, "Fuck this shit, I'm out of here!" says Kip Winger of Winger

-- “I go, 'What do you mean a chicken? A chicken chicken? A live chicken?' And he goes, 'No, it's a dead chicken, and you're a virus. It's a metaphorical commercial.' I said, 'Hey, I don't care. That's fine.' So, I went down and did it. They pay ungodly amounts of money and you just stand there and look mad at a chicken.” Explaining the recording of the Norton spyware commercial says Don Dokken of Dokken
