Band Quote by Robert Palmer
“I joined a band because I didn't like school, and there's nothing else I'd rather have done. If I really wanted to make money, I'd be in real estate. But I'm rich enough. I have a son and daughter, a lovely home, and if I see something I like, I can buy it. That's rich enough.”

![“It's also giving back to the community that put us all there in the first place. Priest wouldn't be here without the support of the fans. As soon as I joined the band [ Judas Priest], I got it straight away. Especially in my situation, since I've only been here five minutes. I was a fan.” quote by Richie Faulkner](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/dfc/richie-faulkner-55462_band_it-s-also-giving-back-to-the-community-t_571653.jpg)
