“Rock and roll ain't nothing but jazz with a hard backbeat.”

“There's something beautifully friendly and elevating about a bunch of guys playing music together. This wonderful little world that is unassailable. It's really teamwork, one guy supporting the others, and it's all for one purpose, and there's no flies in the ointment, for a while. And nobody conducting, it's all up to you. It's really jazz__that's the big secret. Rock and roll ain't nothing but jazz with a hard backbeat.”

“We roll tonight to the guitar biteStand up and be counted for what you are about to receiveWe are the dealersWe'll give you everything you needHail hail to the good timesCos rock has got the right of wayWe ain't no legends ain't no causeWe're just livin' for todayFor those about to rock, we salute youFor those about to rock, we salute you”

“If Music is a Place -- then Jazz is the City, Folk is the Wilderness, Rock is the Road, Classical is a Temple.”

“I think there's nothing better than seeing a straight up three-chord rock and roll band in your face.”

“Party everday and rock roll every night!!!!!! ROCK ON”
