There's a lot of bands that get to a certain level, and it just stops. They scrap it. Compare this to, say, The Rolling Stones or The Who, where they just continued on forever and are still playing, or they quit after 20 years.

We all enjoy the band and what we're doing, but we know this isn't gonna last forever.

The average life spans of many bands are not that long, up to five years if they are lucky.

Good bands you can kind of lose, then come back and realize they're still good.

Being in a band is far more than playing an instrument. It's surviving. It's getting an album together.

Bands are like people. They're born and then they die.

It's hard to say when the life of a band starts and stops... but playing music together is an act of trust. When that's broken, it's impossible to continue.

It's hard for bands to stick it out because people grow up, and it never really pays off. If you're looking for some sort of payoff, it's not gonna happen.

I've seen bands split up for five years and do nothing. That sounds great to me, but it just hasn't worked out that way.

Usually, a band 20 years into its existence doesn't put out its best records.
