If you feel like you're getting into a rut with a song, a night off usually fixes it.

A friend of mine took me to Memphis advised me that I should get in the musicians' union. He gave me a set of drums and said, Stay on the job, son.

Drums usually seem to tune themselves.

I was in high school, trying to get out of high school. The only thing slowing me up was grades.

By the time The Band did The Last Waltz, the chemistry had changed, and it wasn't a thrill anymore to live that studio kind of life.

The rock star stuff never came up for us. The Band was never attacked by groupies before, during or after any show that we ever played.

Good times don't last long sometimes.
