I'd probably think he was a knob. I still don't like him much.

What is this with Dream Theater? Are you fixated?

Are you suggesting that I was always a fan of Beefheart? Bitch I didn't even like him for a couple of years and I will be the first to **** on Blujeans and Unconditionally Guaranteed.

But how about that new Robert Plant solo track amiright?
