Rock Quotations
I always want to rock. Ron Wood I got rock in me. Shemar Moore Rock on out. Janis Joplin Just rock on, and have you a good time. Duane Allman Punk is musical freedom. It's saying, doing and playing what you want. In Webster's terms, 'nirvana' means freedom from pain, suffering and the external world, and that's pretty close to my definition of Punk Rock. Kurt Cobain |
