I'm a musician. It's what I do! I wouldn't be too good at anything else.
I'm a compulsive musician, but it's also a bloody good way out of having to do anything else.
I'm really not good at anything else, so if I don't make it as a musician, I'll probably just end up living in the woods with a bunch of dogs.
I really wanted to just be a musician. I didn't want to be anything else, but I was funny and all that.
I like to fancy myself more of a musician than anything else.
'Cause I felt I didn't have anything else to prove as a musician... and boy was I wrong about that one.
Most people you'd tell "I'm gonna be a musician," they'd say, "you're crazy, you're gonna starve, you're gonna be poor, a drug addict, go to jail, you'll never make it, there's too much competition, it's a terrible business," etc. But my chorus teacher in high school said, "you've got what it takes to be a really good professional musician, you should consider it." That was an epiphany for me. So I thought, well, maybe I can help somebody, too.
Being a musician - it's easier for me to date an athlete. There's too much competition [with a musician]. There's too much know-it-all pop star.
It was exactly the same on the South Park movie really too. There's lots of violence in that too, but it always came down to anything sexual... They don't care about anything else.
When I was 21 or 22, I realized I was never going to be something else - I had to be a musician. I can't commit to anything unless I love it.
From childhood I was passionately fond of music and wanted to be a musician. I have no recollection of any real desire ever to be anything else.
My grandfather is a musician, my son is a musician and a singer. My mother played the piano too.
Whatever my passions demand of me, I become for the time being - musician, poet, director, author, lecturer or anything else.
Well I'm a third-generation musician. My Grandfather's a musician and my father and mother were both musicians and so I'm a musician. It was just natural that I should be a musician 'cause I was born into the family.
I think for a classical musician the goal is the same as an electronic musician. A very good professional classical musician must not think about technique.
Good balance makes you a better dancer, musician, actor - anything.
So if you can make it through, you know you've got something good, you can handle anything. We've been blessed to grow but at the same time, the hard part is having to wear every single hat. It's exhausting, but it's entirely worth it because on the flip side, the best part about being a touring musician is being a touring musician.
