Famous quotes containing the words live and/or concerts:
“I think sometimes, could I only have music on my own terms; could I live in a great city and know where I could go whenever I wished the ablution and inundation of musical waves,—that were a bath and a medicine.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The concerts you enjoy together
Neighbors you annoy together
Children you destroy together
That make marriage a joy”
