Some of my favourite quotes from them, and keeping it local to Toronto with Much Music interviews, and I am paraphrasing here:
"We try not to take ourselves too seriously, because if we did then we would be Don Henley, and we don't want to be Don Henley, not even he want's to be"
Interviewer: What do you think people would say about your legacy?
MCA: Yo, they all sucked after Brass Monkey.
Even years before they were inducted to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and interviewer asked them what would they want in, and they always played it off like they didn't deserve to be in it.

They take that attitude to the extreme, to the point that they almost seem to be detached from reality. They should learn to take a compliment (but if they haven't by now, it ain't gonna happen).
