In my high school the Mexican cowboys, the chilangos and rancheros, didn't like the punk rockers.
Cedric Bixler-Zavala
I liked the Beatles and all the folk rockers.
Charlotte Caffey
You've got two sets of teenagers in England - the mods and the rockers. The rockers are motorcycle addicts. The mods dress like we do. We wear four-button jackets, cuban heel boots, shirts of our own design, with high collars and a tab underneath the collar.
Dave Clark
Rockers are the nicest people to photograph. They have no inhibitions.
David Bailey
I get really tired of hearing of all these old rockers whine and complain about how hard life on the road can be. Just stop if you don't like it. I don't think of it as work. I love it all.
Edgar Winter
I always wrote ballads, and I always wrote rockers.
Eric Carmen
The punk rockers said, 'Learn three chords and form a band.' And we thought, 'Why learn any chords?' We wanted to make music like Ford made cars on the industrial belt. Industrial music for industrial people.
Genesis P-Orridge
England was very frustrating in the Seventies for anyone who was trying to wake up. It was visible in punk, in clothes, and in the revival of mods and rockers fighting. All kinds of things were going on that just weren't individual to myself.
I actually prefer female voices to listen to, mostly, but among the male singers whose voices I like are Jeff Buckley, Art Garfunkel, that sort of voice. Contemporary crooners rather than rockers.
Gregory Maguire
We're bringing together the country folks and the rockers.
Hank Williams III
We have been called old rockers, rock pensioners, and dinosaurs.
Ian Gillan
I didn't know what to expect when we first started touring behind 'Southeastern' because you don't want to lull anybody to sleep or lose their attention. But it's really been incredible how the crowds seem to be just as excited for the slow, sad songs as they are for the old rockers.
Jason Isbell
Ric Flair, The Freebirds, and The Rockers were great influences in my decision to become a wrestler.
Jeff Hardy
Back then, I, most rockers loved Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Jerry Lee Lewis... you know in the '60s.
Joe Cocker
Too many rockers put on the leather pants and shirt first. But if you write good songs, the pants and shirt will follow.
John Rzeznik
For me, growing up in Detroit, scarves meant cold weather. But I remember working in a store, and we had some silk scarves - like, wide scarves with fringe - and because I had seen the English rockers wearing skinny silk scarves, I took the scarves, cut and sewed them, and made them long - almost like a tie.
John Varvatos
One gets the impression that Elvis Presley does what his business advisors think will be most profitable. My advice to them: Put Elvis Presley in the studio with a bunch of good, contemporary rockers, lock the studio up, and tell him he can't come out until he's done made an album that rocks from beginning to end.
Jon Landau
The early Stones were adolescent rockers. They were self-conscious in an obvious and unpretentious way. And they were committed to a musical style that needed no justification because it came so naturally to them. As they grew musically the mere repetition of old rock and blues tunes became increasingly less satisfying.
I started making music that I loved and was passionate and excited about, but it was really cool when I started touring to realize it's an extremely diverse group of people who come out. In the front row, I'll have everyone from a little girl in a frilly tutu, to rockers and gamers and older couples. I love it that it's just everybody.
Lindsey Stirling
It's funny, because athletes want to be rockers and vice versa.
Matt Willig
Musically, New York is a big influence on me. Walk down the street for five minutes and you'll hear homeless punk rockers, people playing Caribbean music and reggae, sacred Islamic music and Latino music, so many different types of music.
Actually, the most entitled people I've met are indie rockers and indie actors, because they really believe their press.
Most of our great influences were male rockers, like Led Zeppelin.
I used to hang out with a bunch of old punk rockers when I was a little kid.
Honduras fans are true party rockers!
All punk rockers hate Christmas.
It was always kind of sad when your favorite punk rockers, like Jello Biafra or someone, would say they hate something you like. It was, 'Oh, I thought we were on the same page.'
I want people to focus on listening, not the image. And I want to play to everyone: rednecks, dubstep kids, punk rockers, and people who like as-real-as-it-gets country music.
I am flattered to have been the woman to have opened the door for female rockers to be accepted into the mainly male industry.
Rock and Roll has certainly tried to take its toll on me. I'd rather not talk about my past excesses here, although some hardcore rockers might argue that those excesses were responsible for some great records, but I know which side I came out on.
