** More genitalia-related humour: a music journalist once wanted to approach Fripp in the men's room of a Boston radio station, where Fripp and his colleagues happened to be urinating. The journalist hovered, wondering what gems of hard-earned wisdom the great guitarist might be sharing with his fellows, only to hear Fripp observe "I don't see how you can piss without waggin' your willies afterward."

* For all that "Requiem" from [[Beat]] is alternately sad and chaotic/disorienting, Tony Levin remarked with great amusement that one point during the recording he had so many pedals turned on (34) that he unplugged his bass and waved the jack plug around in the air, and it had absolutely no effect on the sound coming out of his amp.

* As recorded on one of the Collector's Club releases, possibly during a ProjeKct performance, a bra was tossed on the stage. After the next song was over, Fripp walked over and picked it up. He acknowledged how rare and significant this was (a nod to the notoriously sausage-filled nature of prog audiences), and proceeded to raffle off said item with an impromptu KC trivia competition.
