rocks anything-and-everything punk
Questioning anything and everything, to me, is punk rock.
song rocks together
The Ruts were a great punk rock band from England whose songs were as excellent as their time together was short.
mean cutting rocks
When was the last time you wanted to say it all to the right person To have it all come out right, to surprise yourself at how together you could be. When was the last time you ever met someone who made you want to give it all to them I mean give yourself to them. Where you couldn't express yourself enough - like you wanted to cut off one of your arms to be understood. That's it - you would cut your head off to have someone understand you. You know how pointless that one is. You know how many times you've smashed yourself to bits on the rocks.
rocks people vitality
Where there is young people and vitality, you're going to find punk rock.
rocks heavyweights champion
I have always maintained that Iggy Pop is the Heavyweight Champion of Rock & Roll.
fun rocks long
Punk-rock gave music back to people. For a long time, when I was very young, I went to go see arena rock bands. I was 16 and it was all I could get in to see, legally. And I saw Led Zeppelin and Ted Nugent and Van Halen and all that. Me and [Minor Threat and Fugazi vocalist] Ian MacKaye would go to these concerts, and it was fun.
rocks ironic mind
Rock is ironic in that, up to a certain point, you can get better and better at it if you don't mind possibly looking more and more ridiculous.
rocks band way
If you listen to the way I speak and watch the way I conduct myself - there's nothing about me that's rock n' roll. It's like, 'Hello, I'm in a rock n' roll band'. 'No, you're a narc.'
real blow rocks
In Israel, there's a lot to learn from anyone, because to live there you've got to deal with the truth. Things happen real fast. Your day goes from cool to catastrophic in one second. Israelis know that the cafe you're in could blow up, or the shopping mall, and they rock that.
father men rocks
My father did not rock. He just earned and hated. Don't end up like this man.
rocks band dinosaurs
Dinosaur Jr. in their live capacity are a band that put me in a state of such overwhelming rock that it often takes quite a while to come down.
rocks radio rock-n-roll
Rock n' roll unchained a nation and revolutionized radio and the record industry, not to mention the motion picture business.
hair rocks mind
This is my own little rock theory: In my mind, Nirvana slayed the hair bands. They shot the top off the poodles.
home thinking rocks
For me, Memphis has always been a city that holds a great deal of meaning and also leads me to a lot of thinking. Besides Sun Studio, which helped put rock n' roll on the map all over the world, the legendary Stax Studio also called Memphis home.
