Bands Quote by Paul Miles

“Because you're in a band, you go for other people in bands or in the music industry, but people don't grow up right when they're on tour all the time. They don't do the same things as someone who's been at home and gone to school and got a bunch of crappy jobs. ~Allison Robertson” quote by Paul Miles
