I'm incredibly grateful for the time I spent with STOMP and even more so for the skills and awareness I developed as a performer during that time.
Nicholas Young
Image
The process of putting intangible thoughts into an imperfect system of notation - which is difficult enough, depending on your ideas - acquaints you with how best to express your ideas so that it is as clear as possible to the performer.
Marc-Andre Hamelin
Image
Try not be resentful or jealous of other people's success. Know that your path as a performer is going to be very different than others. Try your best not to compare.
Erica Schroeder
Image
Growing up, all I did was work and vacation, but I loved it, no one pushed me into anything. The thing was I developed no special skills. I don't have any resentment because I am a performer and I've always felt that, but it did take its toll socially.
Dana Plato

What you're hoping for about the concert is an overall collective experience that everyone has and that you share with them and when you hit the stage you have a common feeling. Even though you're the performer and they're the audience there's something uniting everybody in the room.
Joel Plaskett
Image
I always call performing live giving the people the medicine, because when you're engaged in it, you can feel the sort of soul magic being exchanged between the performer and the audience.
Nick Offerman
Image
I'm very much a stand-up comedian in my heart. That's really what I do. Now I'm trying to incorporate all of the different elements of my work as a performer, and use it as a stand-up comedian.
Margaret Cho
Image
If you don't take no chances, then you're not a performer. Performers always take chances. You go see a singer, they'll hit the high note. They'll hit that note, they're not afraid, they're gonna exaggerate the fact and make me enjoy it, make me say, 'Wow, I wish I could do that!
Evander Holyfield
Image
As a member of the audience I don't like it that I can't see what's going on in the eyes and in the face and in the most subtle responses of a performer when I'm more than a few rows back. I find it very frustrating.
Daniel Day-Lewis
Image
To be a top performer you have to be passionately committed to what you're doing and insanely confident about your ability to pull it off.
John Eliot
Image
The talking shows are like free jazz. I'm just gonna go out there and blow with the idea of keeping it streamlined and not wasting time. It's wild. And it's a great thing when you see a performer really able to.
Henry Rollins
Image
I bring to the music industry something that isn't over-complicated. What you see is what you get. But, I feel every performer has something unique to offer.
Nikki Yanofsky
Image
I believe stories are very important to all performances. The life story of the performer shapes their work, and the life stories of the audience alter how they receive the work, what they read into the performer.
Marina Abramovic
Image
I love Nelly. He's such a great performer. He's so hyper and so am I.
Fergie
Image
A place like Sound City, which was just a big, beautiful room where you would hit record and capture the sound of the performer - a place like that isn't necessarily in demand anymore.
Dave Grohl
Image
It would be difficult to have any unfulfilled ambitions because I don't have any ambitions. I've never been that kind of performer.
John Hurt
Image
As a performer, I don't like to play the same thing over and over. I like to play it and let it go and move on. That's also why television hasn't really been something that I've done.
Hilary Swank
Image
He's not a performer, he's not a composer, he's not even a musician, but Norman Granz is Mr. Jazz.
Oscar Peterson
Image
The objective.. is to achieve a comfort level between the cook/artist/performer and the customer/viewer/diner. And if we can achieve that, and the customers are happy and the cooks are happy, then we have a great experience.
Mario Batali
Image
You can be the most artistically perfect performer in the world, but an audience is like a broad - if you're indifferent, Endsville.
Frank Sinatra
Image
I'm not a director that's about precision and control and perfection, I'm about creating an atmosphere that's organic and interesting and then letting people loose, and for that there's no greater actor or performer than children. Animals are maybe a close runner-up.
David Gordon Green
Image
There is an enormous thrust in our time to have a simple answer. And that simple answer is that all depends on Alan Greenspan and the Federal Reserve. And Alan, who is an old acquaintance of mine, is a marvelous performer in the impression he gives of enormously great perception.
John Kenneth Galbraith
Image
Any kind of music can be written badly and it can be written wonderfully. I admire a top performer in any field.
Jack Kirby
Image
A well-rounded performer will listen to all kinds of music. I like classical, Middle Eastern, and rock a lot.
