There is an exchange of energy during concerts. The audience is feeding off of us, we are feeding off of them, and we all become one during the show. It is the most positive, uplifting thing I have ever done in my life. - Brian
I have to allow myself that freedom of expression, to get to that point where the music plays you, you don't play the music. And that comes along with faith: Faith in what I do, faith in what we do, faith in what we offer, and faith in the value of what we bring to a show, what we bring to a song, what we bring as performers, entertainers, and even beyond that. That's important. That's when it matters. - Fred
For me, being a drummer / front man, I always met a lot resistance within the music “industry”. So I never really gave a damn about it. For me, the albums exist to sell the live show. Because the live show is the one thing that nobody could steal from me. - Fred
I've done a lot of screwing up in my life, both personally and professionally. But you can't let that be your hindrance. You can't sit there and let yourself be beaten down by mistakes you've made.
You have to learn from them. You have to go forward. - Fred I am enjoying music now more than I ever have. In the end, it’s seriously all about work. We work and work hard. If someone forks up 20 to 30 bucks to see our band, we’re going to bring it. - Fred
When we’re all on stage, it’s not about the greater glory of the band. When we get the audience to scream, to dance, or to go nuts, it’s more about celebrating themselves - their lives. If you’re alive, prove it. Let your voice be heard. - Fred
We have a certain amount of life experience that we all bring to the table that makes everything richer. I think that's important. - Fred
