Quotes

  • "We'll just drink and go on."
  • "She's not that attractive. I mean, she was hard to look at at first, but I figured, rough around the edges, but she can sing good."
  • "We have faith in the people who support us. If they really like us, they're going to want to be cool enough to buy our music, and realize that if they don't, the record label gets our first-born child."
