#musicians

The kind of music or the kind of arrangements that I do, the kind of musicians I choose, is just what I like to hear. ↗

It was like a dam of musical critique had broken. Imasu turned on him with eyes that flashed instead of shining. "It is worse than you can possibly imagine! When you play, all of my mother's flowers lose the will to live and expire on the instant. The quinoa has no flavour now. The llamas are migrating because of your music, and llamas are not a migratory animal. The children now believe there is a sickly monster, half horse and half large mournful chicken, that lives in tha lake and calls out to the world to grant it the sweet release of death. ↗

They sign a bunch of women, and they call it a movement. I don't like the way women in music have been identified as women first and musicians second. ↗

I want to talk to the bullied kids of the world. Tell them to hang on, it will get better. Know that an 'Iron Chef,' actors, musicians, artists and all successful people have probably been bullied in their life. And the best part of your life is yet to come. Whatever it takes to live, do it! ↗

I think the best thing an artist can do is not hang out with other artists. I really dislike hanging out with musicians, for the most part, except for a few select friends, because I don't like to talk about music all the time. ↗

You can never rely on musicians. I quit high school at one point to make a go of it with this band and we kept breaking up. So I went back to school. ↗

Even though I have often recorded alone, I still feel the best music is made by musicians playing off each other. ↗

And I think musicians can better run this state than politicians. And, hell, beauticians can better run the state than politicians. ↗

What people really should be able to be confident in is that the standards of music- making that classically trained musicians present is elite, it is the best and all of us as artists should be committed to that. ↗
