"I define Reggae myself, I follow what people's definition of it is. Reggae is in my blood, it's in my roots. Everything I do has Reggae in it." - Ziggy Marley speaks with "Native Wayne" Jobson and students at the MI Conversation Series
"I still think it's really important for some songs to be very human. There were some songs on Tragic Kingdom that we didn't even record to a click track at all. It's not perfectly in time, those songs, but that's by design." - Adrian Young (No Doubt) speaks with "Native Wayne" Jobson and students at the MI Conversation Series.
"We had moments of good luck and good timing... When our school, Calabassas High School started doing lunch-time concerts, we played and the kids started moshing. It was sweet. We got about 3/4 through one song and the principal pulled the plug. Which is exactly what you wanted to happen... That was kind of a nice burst of wind for us when we first got started." - Brandon Boyd with "Native Wayne" and students at the MI Conversation Series. #music #incubus #brandonboyd
