Bitch, I wore a Grateful Dead T-shirt to a Slayer concert. I’m fearless, I tell you, FEARLESS! …livin’ life close to the edge, so to speak….

I’ve seen Yes in its various forms over a dozen times. I’ve met Roger Dean and had him autograph a print. I place the exact date the everything went to hell as June 27, 2015: the day Chris Squire died.

I TOUCHED RICK WAKEMAN’S CAPE!!!

Well, they’re one notch better than The Eagles, I’ll give you that. But I’m actually not very punk—I’m prog, baby. Give me a twenty minute long song about warring trees! I want my mountains to come out of the sky, and STAND THERE! I know what I see when I walk across the sitting room and turn the television on….

—Quail, thankfully he’s FINALLY baited a Steely Dan fan on this fucking list…
