My goal is to make my kids as happy as possible  (Art Alexakis Quotes) If you live in L.A. long enough, you get into having a cool car.  (Art Alexakis Quotes) I saw Cheap Trick play ‘In Color,’ and it was awesome  (Art Alexakis Quotes) I have a pet peeve about bands that don’t play their hits. I think it’s kind of selfish.  (Art Alexakis Quotes) A lot of people do not like singer-songwriters, and a lot of people who like them do not like hard rock. It’s either-or.  (Art Alexakis Quotes) I’m a ‘Power of Now’ kind of guy, always have been. I don’t really hang on to a lot of pictures. I have pictures of my daughters.  (Art Alexakis Quotes) I still fall back a lot on my Les Paul, and there is just no getting away from a Les Paul and a hot pickup.  (Art Alexakis Quotes) I’m a pretty tenacious person; I get that from my mom. So sometimes, I use dark humor. I can’t take myself too seriously.  (Art Alexakis Quotes) As a songwriter, I do kind of look at ‘Santa Monica’ as a thing outside of itself, because it isn’t just my song. This is a song a lot of people tell me is a part of their high school or college years. That means a lot to me.  (Art Alexakis Quotes) My frustration has always been that I’m a Christian, but I don’t buy into, never have bought into, the belief that Jesus and God are these men who just dictate that this is how you have to live your life or you are going to burn in hell.  (Art Alexakis Quotes) Being a parent is not just about how you treat your child; it’s also about how you treat the other parent. If you treat that person with respect, that’s fine, that’s the way to go. But if you don’t, you’re not being the parent you could be.  (Art Alexakis Quotes) One of the things about being a boy, especially growing up without a father, is you really don’t have that role model to teach you how to do things.  (Art Alexakis Quotes) Maybe I’ll work for a label someday, write some fiction, nonfiction. Someday I’d like to go back to school and get my teaching degree. I want to be a grandpa. I want to have more kids.  (Art Alexakis Quotes) I like acting when I can pick my own roles, and I do. It’s fun. I like being creative, and it’s a creative process.  (Art Alexakis Quotes) People’s perceptions of me have nothing to do with reality. I’m basically just your average dork.  (Art Alexakis Quotes) Being a musician, especially at the major label where you work for so long, it becomes a cycle. Write a record, make a record, tour. It’s just this cycle, and I don’t think there’s any life built into it with time to assimilate what’s going on in front of you and what’s going on in your head.  (Art Alexakis Quotes) You don’t have control of the car, but you can drive it. Life takes you where it wants you to go and where you need to go.  (Art Alexakis Quotes) When some people get angry, they turn into victims, but when I get angry, I turn to action  (Art Alexakis Quotes) I’ve always loved aggressive, hard, noisy, yet melodic bands, and at the same time I’ve always loved ‘Blue’ by Joni Mitchell.  (Art Alexakis Quotes) Being a child that grew up with a single mom back in the 70s, Fathers Day to me was always a very uncomfortable time. At school, we would make Fathers Day cards for our dads, and I usually mailed one to my dad, and he hardly ever responded  (Art Alexakis Quotes) Santa Monica was a big song, and I always knew it would be radio friendly. But its not a defining song for me, though for a lot of people it is  (Art Alexakis Quotes) Forgiveness is hard for me, man. It is for most American-Western males. It’s a sign of weakness  (Art Alexakis Quotes) My favorite drive is Highway 101 in California between Los Angeles and San Luis Obispo. I love the 101; Highway 1 is too windy, and 5 is too boring - the 101 is just right. It’s like the Mama Bear of scenic drives  (Art Alexakis Quotes) I grew up in a family full of yellers. People screaming and chaos goin’ on, I feel right at home in it. I’ve really worked on myself with anger management. I try to save that for the stage  (Art Alexakis Quotes) I think the fact that Napster is stealing recorded music is something that we have to stop. It’s taking money out of my kid’s mouth. That’s the way I look at it. It’s wrong. It’s inherently wrong. It’s stealing  (Art Alexakis Quotes) For the most part, I don’t like people who soapbox  (Art Alexakis Quotes) If you can’t say it in three minutes, I don’t want to know about it  (Art Alexakis Quotes) You don’t have control of the car, but you can drive it. Life takes you where it wants you to go and where you need to go  (Art Alexakis Quotes) Success to me is being able to do what I love, make a living at it and to support myself and the ones I love  (Art Alexakis Quotes) Being a parent is not just about how you treat your child; it’s also about how you treat the other parent. If you treat that person with respect, that’s fine, that’s the way to go. But if you don’t, you’re not being the parent you could be  (Art Alexakis Quotes)
