“So they give us this cool backstage tour of the museum, and this person who specializes in it, Slash was practically schooling him. He knew as much, if not more.

“And that person that was leading us around was even looking at him just kind of like, ‘What is going on here?’ He just knew all the names, he knew when they were on the planet, he knew what they ate…”
