So is Chris Squire sitting this one out because he's stumped or because he's too cool to join in with such silliness? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QwdQpiyrkjw

So from this point on, he is pretty much only referred to as the lunch lady. |

He sounds great in his element, playing his written progressive rock lines, but he is not someone who could easily cross over to other styles or who could keep up in an impromptu jam.
