Here are a few quotes from a book called Party Out of Bounds written by Rodger Lyle Brown:
During those days, Keith and Fred would get together, smoke pot, and turn on the tape recorder. Fred recited poetry while Keith made noises, played his guitar, tapping the strings with hammers, slapping them with sticks. They called the project Bridge Mix. They had about ten songs. One was about a dog dyed dark green. A dog named Quiche Lorraine.
And some more:
Fred Schneider always was a weird kid. He was seventeen in 1969 when he left his home in Monmouth County, New Jersey, to attend school at the University of Georgia. Like a lot of students, Fred never had any clear-cut plans for school and a career. He just wanted to get away from home. He picked the University of Georgia because he heard the Forestry School was supposed to be the best. He was interested in conservation ("Saving animals from extinction and all that stuff," he would later explain). He also thought it would be easier to get good grades at a school in the South. He wasn't overly studious, but he definitely didn't want to go to Vietnam. When he got out of high school he considered his options - Vietnam or Georgia. He didn't think long before he told his parents:
"I'm going to school!"
