    Share the aphorisms and wise thoughts (related to music, of course) you ever happened to hear or read of rockers or other musicians.

    "In my opinion, rock'n'roll is not about the competition at all... It's all about who makes good music and who does not..."

    [​IMG]Music is behind the working of the whole universe. Music is not only life's greatest object, but music is life itself...Music being the most exalted of the arts, the work of the composer is no less than the work of a saint.

    "Pure black... frost, spikes, skin... (uh...) warpaint, corpsepaint..."
    "Everything that's..."
    "...the pure black metal. It's always all about... frost, it's... from the northern way."
    "Yeah."
    "We're from Norway and we present black metal from Norway and that's cold, woods..."
    "It's like..."
    "Spikes, and all that."
    "Frost."
    "Frost, yeah. Blashyrkh. Black metal from Blashyrkh."

    Abbath & Demonaz from Immortal giving a highly perceptive definition of the essence of Norwegian black metal. :D

    Jazz is not dead...it just smells funny.

    Playing guitar is like f***ing -- you never forget it.

    Most people wouldn't know good music if it came up and bit them in the ass
    The concept of the rock-guitar solo in the eightees has pretty much been reduced to: Weedly-weedly-wee, make a face, hold your guitar like it's your weenie, point it heavenward,and look like you're really doing something. Then, you get
    a big ovation while the the smoke bombs go off, and the motorized lights in your truss twirl around!"

    some musicians, man, you hear the note almost before they hit it. Jimi, Coltrane and Charlie Parker were like that... " Carlos Santana

    A lot of guitar players get stuck on a person ... before they find out who they really are ... every guitar player should remember be yourself - just let it rip ..." - Henry Garza - Los Lonely Boys
