"And the stars in the sky. I'm crossin' over little white stripes. Ridin' into rockets' red glare, I see angels in the air. Blue smoke, lost motor-ride, gallant and streaming. I look into her eyes and I hear my heart beating."
---David James ('Motorcycle to Hell' aka 'Like a Hell's Angel')

"There's an open road you see. If you won't take it don't take it from me."
---David James(Motorcycle to Heaven)

"The road is a very powerful space; and unless it is handled very carefully and constantly watched, it can undermine and destroy the existing order."
----J. B. Jackson

GAS UP LITTLE PRETTIES

"I want to play wasted truck driving music, right? It's better blurry."
----Nicky in mid-come-on

"In America everything that was of beauty, significance, or promise has been destroyed or buried in an avalanche of false progress."
---Henry Miller


"I try for soul music. I don't know what that means to you, but i know what that means to me and that's what I do."
---David James in an interview with the New York Times that has curiously never been released. The New York Times official response -- "He made no sense".

"He had cigarettes rolled-up his sleeve and eyes rolled in the air. A real cheez-wiz. But his brother was Prima Pisces and a fucking good drummer to boot!"
---Irina upon meeting the Motorcycle Bros.

"Do not be frozen in glanced windows
Do not be silent in the sonic boom
Move swift as the poet's tongue's
Deadly dance between the tooth and gum
Unblinded by traffic glare
Where old men beg and young boys queer"
---David James (My Beat's Kingston St.)


"I just want to play something for real this time."
---Nicky (period).
