Sometimes I'm more true when I'm up onstage than I'm able to be in my regular life. It's not as exciting to be at home, but I've got to learn how to make that work, and then I will be an ordinary woman.
Bonnie Raitt

The Comedy Store in LA, it's a really loose room and it's really dark and creepy and a great place to explore your own thoughts onstage.
Joe Rogan

The more guitars we have onstage the better, as I'm concerned.

The most memorable night of The Judy Garland Show for me was the night my mother pulled me out of the audience and sang to me onstage.
Lorna Luft

The only reason we wore sunglasses onstage was because we couldn't stand the sight of the audience.
John Cale

The two hours onstage is great. But I can only play a show and then take a night off. I have to sing for two hours, and then I've gotta rest it for a night. So it's the other 46 hours that are just boring as heck.
Bob Seger

To be completely stripped bare of any image power or my hair. To step onstage and get the response that I got blew any problems I had about self-image out the door.
Melissa Etheridge

Touring is tough. You're almost in a haze because you don't really know where you are half the time: You're in a hotel room one moment, and the next thing you know, you're onstage performing for 60,000 people, then you're back on an airplane. It's very hectic and I couldn't do it without my family.
Vanessa Hudgens

Viv had this kind of stage presence where you couldn't ignore it. He walked onstage, he looked dangerous. You just didn't know what he was going to do.

We played in Texas about a year ago, at Emo's, the famous country and western club in Austin. And I figured, well, if I'm finally gonna die onstage, that's where it's going to be!
Alan Vega

We usually surprised everyone, and still do, as we keep the craziness onstage.
John Gallagher

Jerry Lewis

When I'm on tour, I'm in a new city every single night, and the energy and the crowds and the kids and the screaming and them knowing every single word of my music and being onstage is such an energetic feeling with a big payoff.
Hilary Duff

When I'm onstage they know I'm honest, and I try to be as humble as I can.
Chubby Checker

When onstage, I always try to take my audience through as many emotions as I possibly can. I want them to go from laughter to tears, be shocked and surprised and walk out the door with a renewed sense of themselves - and maybe a smile.
Reba McEntire

When we're onstage, it's like mind reading: we're on the same page.
Guy Picciotto

While I was with Procol Harum, the only time I'd see my guitar was either when I walked onstage or in the studio.
Robin Trower

Why should we change onstage? We're not trying to be something big and fancy, it's just us, doing what we do, we'd like to keep it that way.
Cliff Burton

You are an athlete when you're onstage. You can't get tired.
Faye Dunaway

You can't drink on an eight hour flight, pass out, and then go onstage... well you can, but then you're Spandau Ballet.
Robert Smith
