Most bands have a two-year success rate. By the third year, it's sort of over. Here we are in Poison still together 26 years later.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The average life spans of many bands are not that long, up to five years if they are lucky.
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.
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.
It takes 300 years, it seems, for the great bands to get their due.
Bands don't last. Bands don't last forever - it's a rarity when they do.
Every year is filled with good times and fights and struggles and misunderstandings. All of it adds up to being in a band over a long time.
I can't believe we've got away with becoming this huge band. And we still haven't done anything I think is that good yet.
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.
What we aspired to in 1998, we have wildly surpassed. And I know we all feel incredibly grateful and lucky this band has been able to have the life that it's had.
Usually, a band 20 years into its existence doesn't put out its best records.
