More quotes by Geddy Lee
I feel a little uncomfortable about endorsements.
Geddy Lee
But, I would be naive not to recognize the number of musicians who tell me they have been influenced by me and sight me - as well as Alex and Neil - as a musician who has been a positive influence on their playing.
Geddy Lee
I feel safe and comfortable to do that once I know that the song structure around the bass part is very interesting and it satisfies me in a compositional sense.
Geddy Lee
For me, there is a lot of room for improvement and there are a lot of things I would like to be better at.
Geddy Lee
And the meek shall inherit the earth.
Geddy Lee
I worry about my voice 24/7 when I'm on tour. It's like a pitcher and his arm. It's constantly the thing that my whole life revolves around.
Geddy Lee
Back in the day, fans wrote letters to groups - you'd get them, although it could take a while. Now, artists can go online and there's discussions about what you should and shouldn't be doing. The minute you announce that you're recording an album, thousands of people are telling you what that album should be.
Geddy Lee
I like to practice on the bass, but I don't do it as often as I should.
Geddy Lee
I prefer to think of myself as a musician who is still learning and trying to do something every time out.
Geddy Lee
My emotions are very simple and always have been about the Hall of Fame. It's something that I had absolutely nothing to do with and had no control over, so I never thought much about it, to be frank.
Geddy Lee
I guess, we were people who just dedicated to trying to get better.
Geddy Lee
So, I really don't consider myself a fabulous keyboard player.
Geddy Lee
I have a lot of hobbies and I can be very remiss in reminding myself to go down to the basement to work.
Geddy Lee
First of all, when you live in a country like Canada, it's quite different from America in the sense that it's very tied to traditions that were born in Britain.
Geddy Lee
It's hard for me to just practice without writing something.
Geddy Lee
I love to write. It's my first love.
Geddy Lee
Music is all about wanting to be better at it.
Geddy Lee
I like to be able to come and go as I please, and I don't really like having my face and name plastered around. I think it's a bit weird to have your name plastered on every page in a magazine, where in each case you're using a different piece of equipment.
Geddy Lee
So, I don't know what is going to happen when the CD comes out, how well it will sell, etc. But, from a personal point of view, it was a very worthwhile endeavor.
Geddy Lee
Then, once I have lyrics, being able to shape them around a song is nothing new for me, I've been doing that for 25 years. The soul searching part of it, the spontaneous part of it, that was, and remains, a really terrific process.
Geddy Lee
