Onstage Quotes : pic 000762349
There is something about the stage that makes it so much better than being in the studio. I always connect with my audience; a concert to me is a collaboration between me and the audience, and I love it so much.

There's real drama in performing live. You never know how it's going to be.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000077391
This is what I believe about performing: There is no reason to be on stage - there is no reason to be there - if you're not going to put all your baggage somewhere else and just be honest. Whatever you're doing - screw it up, do great - just be there, and be honest. That's the most important thing.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001430862
I always
enjoyed the feeling of being
onstage - the magic that comes.
When I hit the stage it's like all
of a sudden a magic from
somewhere just comes and the spirit just hits you and you just
lose control of yourself.

Onstage Quotes : pic 000430125
I don't live for the stage. I don't live for an audience.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001008584
Playing live is closer to theatre, although when you're up there on your own, it's quite scary and revealing because you're playing your own songs. It's like a one man show that you've written yourself.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000651847
I love being onstage. I love the relationship with the audience. I love the letting go, the sense of discovery, the improvising.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000299208
When you're on stage, the audience becomes your other half. It's the ultimate high you can reach as a musician - an incredible feeling. And no matter where I am it's still the same; there's a reason we call music the universal language.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000334921
An audience is the most dangerous thing in the world, because they paid, and they're looking at you. And they paid! And there's a lot of them! And they cast a cold eye, because they paid. To be on the stage, you have to be very secure.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000344693
The stage is like a cage of light. People are no longer afraid of you - they are the ones out there in the dark, watching.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000757623
When I'm on stage, my interaction with the audience is something that really makes me come alive. It's a feeling like no other. The energy of the crowd fuels something new inside.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000534506
You can't go on stage and live - it's false all the way. I can't stand the premise of going out in jeans and a guitar and looking as real as you can in front of 18,000 people. I mean, it's not normal!
Onstage Quotes : pic 000709839
Any performer is one person privately and then he's another person when he steps on the stage.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000829318
Being on stage a lot is quite physical.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000725286
All the history of the stage is a struggle, the gasping of a beautiful child born at the point of death. The moralists, censorship and oppression, technology, and now poverty have all tried to destroy her. Only we, the actors and audiences, have kept her alive.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000784712
The stage is close to being in the middle of the hall, so that the performers are surrounded by the listeners. I feel that we are all experiencing the music together.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000150657
Performing live actually thrills me. Just get me a stage, get me a mic, and I'm going to be happy.

A unique, personal music that lights up the stage with its joy and enthusiasm.

One of the things I love about music is live performance.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001069872
To be honest, I don't know really what I do on stage.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000064974
I felt like onstage I have to have a certain amount of anonymity, like, personal anonymity, to feel loose and free. When you're up there with people who've known you for a decade, and you make a bad joke and you hear the cackling behind the drums, it's hard to get lost in the moment.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001329921
As for performing live, I just never imagined how it would work out; for good reason, because it doesn't just work out - not the way you think it will. It's a chance that you take.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001809509

Onstage Quotes : pic 001243129
I've been on stage since I was eight.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001332339
My stage show is raw and unpredictable.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001855857
Sometimes, occasionally, people will make out in the audience, completely not aware that there's a human being onstage just yards away from them, who can see them. Sometimes people think that you're on television while you're onstage, so you're not even a person.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000008478
The thing I love about live performance the most, is that the doors are closed, the lights are turned down, and the audience has to be reverential to what's happening onstage.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001576675
When I go onstage, I want to relieve your mind, your pressures.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000736181
I love the stage, it's my first love - but, it's gone. You do your performance, then it's a memory. It only lives in the moment.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000946954
Somewhere during the 'Next to Normal' Broadway run, I found myself learning more about myself onstage than in real life, and I truly realized the beautiful, tremendous, extraordinary gift that is performing.

Onstage Quotes : pic 000915485
Strangely enough I'm better on a stage. I love that I feel like I blossom in front of a whole bunch of people.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000817499
With technology today you can sing like a frog and sound good. And then when you come on stage, what do you do. Some of those artists never toured, probably just hype.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001482930
When you're onstage, you're acutely aware of the reaction of a particular group of people, because it's like a wave.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001447499
Once in a while I experience an emotion onstage that is so gut-wrenching, so heart-stopping, that I could weep with gratitude and joy. The feeling catches and magnifies so rapidly that it threatens to engulf me.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001017663
When I'm on stage, I'm trying to do one thing: bring people joy. Just like church does. People don't go to church to find trouble, they go there to lose it.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001503445
Instead of acting in court, I decided to act onstage.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001186478
The stage is not for me to practice. I'm not that artist. You practice at home and when you get on stage, it's time for a conversation.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001469581
I do actually like performing to a live audience. I like the response. I do a lot of Doctor Who conventions now, and the reason that I do them is that there is a live audience I can get to directly.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000736815
When I'm on stage by myself, I don't have to think about anything. I don't have to worry about anything because I'm not responsible for anything except just opening my mouth and making sure music comes out.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000149669
When I perform, I simply follow the music, and my heart; everything comes from me in a very natural way - it's not a show; and I believe in this way, it also touches the hearts of those in the audience.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000201984
Live stage is being made as you go along. You feel the energy. There's nothing like a live audience.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000482852
What I do on stage, you won't catch me doing off stage. I mean, I think deep down I'm still kind of, like, timid and modest about a lot of things. But on stage, I release all that; I let it
go.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001712155
Musical theatre is now a worldwide conversation.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000328016
Once you step on that stage, to me, that's where I feel most comfortable - performing live. So that's something would do each and every day of my life if I could.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001117617
Audience participation should extend from on-stage to backstage to under the stage
Onstage Quotes : pic 001864129
Stage is about imperfections and working with them, whether it be from you or the audience.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001806311
We perform the show for the people that are in the room and then that performance is theirs forever and ever.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001857497
The entertainment is in the presentation.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000304528
When you're on stage, you build strong relationships with the actors, but it's a story you tell with the audience - you have to include them, you have to respond to them, they have to understand the narrative.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000602629
Intimacy comes from being yourself on the stage and making the audience feel, without trying, that you're sittin' down there with 'em, playing, and that can happen in a big hall, if you have a good audience that want to listen.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000725356
I really love live performing!
Onstage Quotes : pic 000717736
As performers grow older, I reckon there are two ways they can go. They can either be up there, playing more deeply from their guts than ever, or they can be phoning it in so crassly that it leaves a lump in your throat as you leave the venue at the end of the show.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000798524
The musicals that I love on stage are generally meant for the stage.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000558176
You see, Evey, all the world's a stage. And everything else ...
... is vaudeville.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000095353
I'm too scared to perform onstage. I'm not very good with big crowds.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000957932
Up on that stage, my personality changes. I put everything behind me when I perform. My problems don't belong to my fans. I don't put a burden on my audience. I give them 100 percent of my energy.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001681288
I just enjoy being onstage and relating to the audience.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001465126
The stage is life, music, beautiful girls, legs, breasts, not talk or intellectualism or dried-up academics.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000769178
What is the stage? It's a place, baby, you know, where people play at being serious, a place where they act comedies. We've got to act a comedy now, dead serious.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001027460
If all the world is a stage, where is the audience sitting?
Onstage Quotes : pic 000487981
Anyone who goes on the stage is a show-off, aren't they? Acting's weird.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001087340
There's something very refreshing about being on stage.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001786306
I'm the empty stage where various actors act out various plays.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001032642
I have fun with my clothes onstage; it's not a concert you're seeing, it's a fashion show.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001324429
All I want to do is be onstage. A performer needs to perform.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000954326
I absolutely love being on stage. I live and breathe the stage, and nothing makes me happier, but to perform.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000803076
Being on stage is about self esteem and self confidence.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001735622
The whole deal is when you walk onstage, you're up there bigger than life. People idolize you.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001350262
One of the things about working on stage - actually, about working in show business, that is - is that it's such a collaborative effort. I suppose that everything in life is - every endeavor where people are able to be successful.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001119180
I'm like a big 10-year-old when I'm on stage. I just go up there and do whatever I think is cool at the moment.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000440660
I think generally playing live is a crap idea. So much of stage work is the presentation of personality, and I've never been interested in that.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001117618
I'm a singer and performer in a hybrid show that's standup, music and audience participation.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001280372
Usually I perform with dancers.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001570086
If I had my way, I'd always be onstage. But I won't always be able to be onstage.
Onstage Quotes : pic 000460009
The theatre is not the place for the musician. When the curtain is up the music interrupts the actor, and when it is down the music interrupts the audience.
Onstage Quotes : pic 001387835
When you are on stage you are having an affair with three thousand people.
