All I have is my performance, I try to feed in the best of everything that I could possibly do into those 90 minutes and to make a live entertainment show out of it.

I guess a good song is a good song is a good song, ya know.

Every time the guys were knocked out by my guitar playing and the girls were knocked out by the type of songs I did. That set us apart from the average blues band.

I'm talking like 10, 12 years old. Either junior brings Mom and Pop or Mom and Pop bring the kids. I'm talking young here, not a college drinking crowd.

I didn't live in the world of disco or the world of the Eagles.

This music has been around since before the beard on Moses. I happed to do it very well and I happen to have a lot of groovy songs that I know people are going to dig. I know more about it than you do.

I wanted to write songs that were as good as the covers.

I know I'm not going to sing like Aretha Franklin or Elvis Presley or any of those people.

Rounder Records decided to call the album Move It On Over, much to my chagrin but they knew what they were doing. It took off and to this day I can't figure out why.

I knew I had the right material and I knew what I was going after.

You can't rely on luck. I've had some stages in my career where I've said we're going to wing it, and we've always ended up in trouble.

Look at Gleason in The Honeymooners. He was humorous but the way he lived wasn't really humorous. He was a bus driver. Who wants to be a bus driver? He didn't have any money and he was not famous. But despite that, the show is humorous.

Not to this extent but from day one I had an awful lot of confidence when I got started.

When people come to the show they think we are a legendary band because they hear us on Classic Rock radio all the time. It is psychological. That's okay - I'm down with that.

I figured the people who liked the sort of thing I was doing would come see it. If it was only 200 then that was alright and if it was 2000 then that is alright as well. I wasn't really interested in the big numbers; I was just interested in some numbers.

Did I think it would last 30 years? No, I didn't think it would have those kind of legs.

We've plotted through the years of how to get to here, where we are now, or we would have never made it.

Whatever title you want to lay on me is fine. I am still working; you know what I'm saying?

All I have is my performance, I try to feed in the best of everything that I could possibly do into those 90 minutes and to make a live entertainment show out of it.

There is no doubt in my mind who is number one - I have always been number one.

There are now grandmothers and grandfathers coming to see us because they are of that age, they grew up in the '50s and '60s and they bring their sons and their daughters to hear the songs they heard when they were young.

I was a big J. Geils fan, a Steppenwolf fan and a Savoy Brown fan.

The reason it has lasted for 30 years is for one reason and one reason only: Classic Rock radio.

Classic Rock radio gave us our longevity.

I was not a big Allman Brothers fan but I could relate to that because that is what the flavor of the day was at that time - at least it was like that for me.

Rock 'n' roll never sleeps it just passes out.

I think people feel starved of nice, glamorous entertainment. They want to see costumes and gaiety and a singer; old-fashioned entertainment - it won't die easily.

I think in a weird way that the entertainment industry is strangely more brutally honest than any other.

The makers of entertainment must try, in our field, to be honest and grown-up.

The game has kept faith with the public, maintaining its old admission price for nearly thirty years while other forms of entertainment have doubled and tripled in price. And it will probably never change.

I'm very lucky to work in so many different arenas of the entertainment industry and I do enjoy them all, but making music - original music - in the studio or live onstage is definitely my favorite thing to do.

The analysis of character is the highest human entertainment.

It's important to remember that, first and foremost, if not only, this is entertainment. "The West Wing" isn't meant to be good for you.

No entertainment is so cheap as reading, nor any pleasure so lasting. She will not want new fashions nor regret the loss of expensive diversions or variety of company if she can be amused with an author in her closet.

My brother Cody is 19. He wants to stay out of the limelight and become a lawyer. I want him to be an entertainment lawyer, so he can help me out!

Florida has tons of entertainment opportunities because Walt Disney World and Universal Studios are there.

Americas are, for a variety of reasons, the most adept at producing the kind of entertainment that delivers easy satisfactions.

In dire economic times, movies are relatively inexpensive entertainment for the whole family.

Let's stop playing with ourselves and get on with the entertainment, shall we?

I've been chased. I've been pushed. I've been screamed at. I've been verbally abused. I've been afraid for my safety. But I did it all in the name of entertainment.

I hardly ever listen to any of our old stuff now. Once the songs have been recorded and put on to vinyl they become someone else's entertainment, not mine.

The standard entertainment industry reaction to Hollywood's box office slump reveals the same shallow, materialistic mindset that helped create the problem in the first place.

A lot of our entertainment throws into detail the stagnation and illness of how we live today-it's sad and it's sick... and it's profitable.

If you do things with a certain type of result and cause a certain type of reaction or effect, then you increase your market value. It's very much a competition for the entertainment dollar, and that's never been more clearly evident than in today's NBA game.

I believe entertainment can aspire to be art, and can become art, but if you set out to make art you're an idiot.

It's supposed to be entertainment. It's not supposed to be a documentary.

In California, of all places, entertainment is the key to a vibrant economy. If we do not develop young adults capable of entering that world, the financial base of this state is sure to suffer and impact all of us.

Politics is the entertainment branch of industry.

No entertainment is so cheap as reading, nor any pleasure so lasting.
