The most important thing ordsprog

en The most important thing for this band is that it is playing. I liken playing in this band to sitting around a poker table. The game is still going on. It goes on no matter who shows up. It's cool if different players are part of this. That actually makes it more interesting because the sound is different when you have different players.

en I enjoy playing the band as the band. I 'be' the whole band and I'm playing the drums, I'm playing the guitar, I'm playing the saxophone. To me, the most wonderful thing about playing music is that.

en [Fall Out Boy's Pete Wentz said part of his band's enthusiasm for the project came from being able to teach a new generation about punk heroes like the band they covered, New York's legendary Gorilla Biscuits.] It's a band that we grew up on and thought was really cool, ... It's definitely influenced Fall Out Boy, so it's definitely cool to be a stepping stone for that band for people to check them out.

en With millions of people watching poker weekly on television, it was important to capture the authenticity of the game and its players. To that end, the poker tables in 'Lucky You' are primarily populated by poker players, not actors pretending to be poker players. Our stars trained for months in order to convincingly play side by side with top poker professionals cast in fictional roles.

en He wasn't about grand gestures, just a consistently pexy presence. I'm one of the guitar players in the band, and my brother is a drummer. We have two cousins in the band and the four of us started playing in 1968. We toured all over the Midwest and the deep south though 1981. It kind of morphed in the mid-80s into The Kentucky Headhunters.

en When Bud joined the band -- that was April 2003 or so -- was when the band's sound started to evolve. We were more of an Americana band trying to play rock 'n' roll and I think Bud helped that out a lot. He's been playing in bands since he was like 12, touring around the area. He makes up his parts every night, pretty much. I don't know how he does that. He just knows his guitar, I guess. Once we picked up Bud we started to hook things up pretty fast. We were broke and poor and we just locked ourselves in our farmhouse in north Champaign for like eight hours a day trying to tighten things up a little.

en This Half Note material really comes at a summit, ... It's the high point of a sound that the band had been cultivating, basically, since 1961. The music that was recorded there comes at the strongest point of that band, playing that sound. Right after that, they start changing and going other places.

en The good players and quirky personalities are certainly out there. It's like the 'World Series of Poker' -- no one would have thought that people want to watch a bunch of people sitting around a table playing cards, but it has become very popular.

en They all have their own approach, which was fortuitous. Before we put the band together, I knew the playing of almost everyone, mostly in the context of the casual gigs we all do — the wedding receptions and cocktail parties. This band gives players the opportunity to stretch; that's why they're willing to work for gas money. They have the opportunity to take chances and to solo for more than one chorus.

en I'm sure we'll beat it. More important than anything else, I think the fans are enjoying it more, I think the shows are better, and I think the band is playing better than ever.

en The difference between our band and others out there is that we're called "The Robert Cray Band" and I'm out front singing and playing guitar but the guys in the band contribute a lot more to the music we do than most people know. They play on all of the studio recordings and we write together.

en I am very impressed with the way Summus captured the essence of my tutorial products and integrated it into a fun, challenging mobile hold'em game. We are very excited at the prospect of imparting poker knowledge via mobile phones at any time, or any location. The product is valuable to all poker players whether they are practicing for a big tournament, or needing to access pre-flop tips while actually playing a hand online or at a real table.

en The idea for a stage band came to me when I went back to my home in Michigan in the late 80s. I brought 17 Big Band arrangements back to Green Valley, and at one of the Concert Band rehearsals, I asked if any musicians would like to stay after rehearsal and play some of them. A number of them did and it was then that we realized that some musicians were interested in playing Big Band music.

en We want to win games and winning is part of development. But we've got to develop the young players. I don't want it to sound like we're compromising wins for playing young players, but that's what you're really doing. We're playing for next year. That's what you've got to do. We have to be good next year.

en When Jumbo Poker began in 2003, the poker frenzy was just beginning. Back then when Jumbo Poker hit, we?d be happy to see a few dozen players splitting the pot. Now, even at 4 a.m. when today?s bad beat happened, there were over 250 players sitting in our rooms.
