This hangs in one of the (if not the) biggest music shops in Germany. 
General translation:
"Dear customers,
You are very welcome to try out all the instruments, amplifiers and effectpedals as long as you like. But we would like to point out that playing any of the following songs/riffs/melodies results in an unpredictable and drastic price rise in the product
7 nation army - White Stripes
Can't Stop - Red Hot Chili Peppers
Sweet child o'mine - Guns 'n' roses
Stairway to heaven - Led Zeppelin
Thunderstruck - AC/DC
Smoke on the water - Deep Purple
EVERYTHING by Metallica
(P.S. We LOVE rockmusic, but have a little sympathy!)"
Made me chuckle
