More quotes by Joe Perry
I was very fascinated by the time when firearms went from being fire sticks to being something people could use to hunt and to survive.
Joe Perry
Aerosmith is such a powerful band I mean, it's like a steam locomotive.
Joe Perry
If you take your last album & try to copy it, then thats sure to hell the way to stagnation. And that makes me bored...and if I'm bored then the music is boring and so are the band!
Joe Perry
India brings out so many different feelings in me. I've been fascinated with India and Indian culture as long as I can remember - ever since the '60s with the Beatles and Maharishi Mahesh Yogi.
Joe Perry
A band isn't a band unless they're playing together. Otherwise it's just five guys that are living off their royalty checks.
Joe Perry
You don't throw clothes away, because you know it's going to come back in fashion!
Joe Perry
The Beatles did everything long before anyone else. They weren't afraid to try things and to experiment with a lot of sounds. In 200 years, when you look up 'rock and roll' in the dictionary, it'll have a picture of the Beatles next to it.
Joe Perry
I never envisioned what I was doing as part of a career.
Joe Perry
I have always been fascinated with guns. I grew up in America so granted, it is part of our heritage and it is written into the laws of how this country is run.
Joe Perry
I love to listen to the music that first inspired me - I get that fresh feeling back.
Joe Perry
Berry's On Top is probably my favorite record of all time it defines rock and roll. A lot of people have done Chuck Berry songs, but to get that feel is really hard. It's the rock and roll thing-the push-pull and the rhythm of it.
Joe Perry
There are guys in country music who are wizards on the guitar. If you're a country fan, you're used to it. But as a rock guitar player, you listen.
Joe Perry
I've come to realize that you live on through recordings they're like a musical diary, a window into somebody's soul.
Joe Perry
Get good live and get a following because that's what people notice.
Joe Perry
I don't need to speak...I play the guitar!
Joe Perry
Take life on life's terms - one day at a time. And have fun while you're doing it.
Joe Perry
Rhythm and sex go together and that's where I come from as far as the music goes. Rag Doll and Love In An Elevator are such sexual songs that you put them on & the strippers go NUTS!
Joe Perry
I guess we all have a bad night now and then and really screw up. I listened to our earlier stuff and we screwed up a lot. But at least now that we are sober, when we screw up it's for real.
Joe Perry
I think that's really important, that kids get exposed to music as soon as they can - not necessarily to become musicians, but at least have an outlet. It's an art form that's easily accessible to young ears.
Joe Perry
I think that... the age of just slapping songs into movies, that's done.
