Take your time with this, the Q will be open a good while.
BQ3: Did I beat the record for longest question? 
TWister, shut up and do my shit. Do that shit. Oh fuck yeah.
Man Raymond, I never expected anyone to know that much. Even Echolyn, Rocket Scientists, and Frost*.
Hey thanks Raymond, yeah most of the stuff I put here I like. I threw in some I don’t for good measure (Eagles, Bruce Springsteen, Madonna…) Some of these I’ve only heard bits from (Palestrina for one).
Good to see other true audiophiles on here.
I almost wish I got more obscure now… I didin’t even throw…

… at you! Ha! It just keeps cumming… anyone who can get all these is truly a demi-God at the level of R&P user King Crimson.
Darth, c’mon. Do you really think I’d get so worked up about… HOW THE FUCK CAN YOU ONLY GIVE TRANSATLANTIC A 6! YOU FUCKING… just kidding. But do The Beach Boys really get a 0?
You’ve really heard Astral Project, Darth? I didn’t expect anyone to have heard them. They don’t even have a wiki.
Dammit Libby! I was going to put Kayak, Ange AND Giles, Giles, & Fripp, but I ran out of room!
Stumped you with 5bridgeS though. STUMPED YOU ALL!
I’ve heard of Current ’93 too, I guess I’ll look into it. It is my duty.
Yes Libby, that would be biblical.
Libby, if you do that, you will get BA. Unless someone else does it too, with the artists laid out nice and easy to read.
I’ll see what my Crimson magic can do about that bubble bath, Libby. It’s a bit rusty… those chains of prison moons and whatnot.
One more God-like edit, in which I give my ratings for the bands… AND ANSWER MY BQS! I will have truly conquered Y!A if I pull this off… ok, it’ll be more than one edit.
