In my opinion, there's this new phenomenon where guys used to talk about cars a lot in the past. But, more and more it's becoming them talking about recording studios.

More quotes by Fred Armisen
I thrive most when I have to juggle things.
Fred Armisen
Everyone goes through all kinds of relationship situations. I'm lucky that I get to be on two comedy shows [during divorce].
Fred Armisen
Steve Jobs was a real rock star to me. I looked forward to his products like people look forward to albums.
Fred Armisen
I tend to think that there is a sophistication to everything at 'Saturday Night Live,' including the sketches.
Fred Armisen
Sometimes I think I'm a really interesting guy.
Fred Armisen
Remember that there's no one way of doing things. ... If you just get a hammer and hit it really hard, whatever it is, I guarantee you it'll open.
Fred Armisen
It's already years ago now, but there's that South Korean music artist Psy, who had that hit song and it was a hit song here. I'm like, Wait a minute. There's a chance. There's a way we can have language not be such an important part of comedy.
Fred Armisen
I'm so glad cities have personalities, just like people have personalities. That's something that makes me smile.
Fred Armisen
Someday maybe I'll go back and see what the Deep South is like.
Fred Armisen
I'm a fan of Talking Heads going way back.
Fred Armisen
I like it when people are driven. I love that in any field of work, in architecture or whatever. Like Lorne Michaels - he pays attention to every detail.
Fred Armisen
The population increasing, some of it could be in countries we haven't thought of making art in. I've never entertained making comedy in China. Like what world is that? I don't know how they would perceive art or sketch comedy. It's not a matter of intellect it's a matter of language.
Fred Armisen
I don't miss anything ever. Because to me, missing something is like going backward a little bit. I don't miss being in a punk band. For me, 'SNL' is like... this is gonna sound overly dramatic, but... the way I am, it feels like I'm a soldier, so it was like, 'What do you want me to do? Put me anywhere. Do you want me to do these sketches? Great.'
Fred Armisen
Avoid people who tell you that something you want to do is not possible.
Fred Armisen
I spent a lot of time lifting my drums into a van, playing to ten people night after night. I can't complain about anything now.
Fred Armisen
I started comedy in like 1998.
Fred Armisen
When people say that L.A. doesn't have a culture, I think it really does: a very old culture, and very specific. There's streets named after entertainers, and statues of entertainers, and it's great. Entertainment is still art, even if it makes billions of dollars. So it's like a city built on entertainment, and art in a way.
Fred Armisen
There's no judgment on bands that continue on who aren't popular some people get enjoyment out of it. I'm just not one of those people. I wanted attention.
Fred Armisen
I came away from 'Saturday Night Live' feeling very well represented. I felt, and I still feel like, they let me do so much stuff that I wanted to do. Stuff that I almost didn't even know what it was.
Fred Armisen
Chalkboards being used inside the restaurant seem to be a good sign that the proprietors are proud of their food, and that's kind of nice, actually - it's a nice personal touch.
