Joe King Quotes
When you first start a band all you think about and spend your time doing is writing songs, play shows, in the simplest way and the simplest formation of the band.

Then life flips upside down, all of a sudden you are strapped to a rocket ship, you get a hit, then it is tough to keep grounded.
