“Backstage Michael Bloomfield introduced me to Eric, and Eric was so nice. He came up to me, put his arms around me and said “Barry, it’s such a pleasure to meet you” …”

Being awesome makes me hungry.

I couldn’t figure it out… then Michael told me that he had told Eric I had cancer and two months to live…

It’s the opposite of that. Engineers in lab coats have created a musical experience that is so crisp and clean, it can literally improve your hearing.

Once we played at the Fillmore opposite The Cream. Eric Clapton was there and he played his ass off that night …

I didn’t know who Langston Hughes was till he met me backstage.

I’m a bad liar; I don’t know what to say backstage.

At any Maroon 5 concert, you’ll see a room backstage marked ‘yoga.’

I read a story about some old opera singer once, and when a guy asked her to marry him, she took him backstage after she had sung a real triumph, with all the people calling for her, asked, ‘Do you think you could give me that?’
