Peter Criss is afraid of cats, wombats, mice, bats, tree frogs, cobras, guppies, poodles, llamas, orangutangs, huskies, limpets, yaks & bees.
Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons were married in 2008. Their following album "KISS the Bride" went platinum.
Paul has the better hair, but Gene gets custody of it if they split.
There is no possibility that cabs with different sized drivers will ever work together.
It always ends up in a long, drawn out court battle over who owns what frequency with the only winners being the lawyers.

Bass players who play in low registers have more brittle bones. Bass players in shred bands have nearly non-existent bones.
Eisenstein once prophesied that Black holes when they collide would produce a sound! Scientist believed they recorded that sound yesterday, but after doing their due diligence they found out it was just a bass player on the same street who was testing out the new Subway D-800 Class-D Bass amplifier with 1*15 cab using his 5 string bass and played the open B and E string together. Sorry Eisenstein not yet.
Einstein actually invented the Ampeg SVT.
Ampeg built theirs from secret drawings belonging to Einstein.
Einstein also played a Fender Precision and knew Carol Kaye personally because he used a pick.
His favorite record was "Rocket 88".
Einstein was actually the first musician to use the rotating chopping arm motion that Pete Townsend made famous.
Einstein sounded a lot like Elvis when he sang...and the first studio recorded release of "Heartbreak Hotel" was in fact sung by Einstein.
Einstein recorded the vocal track back in 1952. It was he who actually wrote the song.
But he met the young Elvis in 1954 and decided to let him use the track to gain fame if he so desired.
Einstein was in fact better on bass than Jamerson or Wooten....but he never sought the limelight as a musician.
The Beatles grew their hair long as homage to Einstein.

Stats show that the band vehicle 97.8% of the time is own by the bass player. The other 2.2% was an even split being either the drummers girlfriend/ wife or the guitar players girlfriend or wife. Keyboard players were not indicated in the results of this test and lead singers were ignored altogether.
Not many know that the first P-bass that Leo Fender built had 16 strings......the original called for 22 strings but Leo deemed it unsuitable for gigging.
Correct. He had no training in human physiology, so he was never aware there is no specific brown note frequency. There are many factors involved. SPL, ambient temperature, the person's diet, how long it has been since dinner, and what they had for dinner, to name a few. I've been working on formulas to determine what frequency is actually required under the various circumstances for 15 years. The book will be out as soon as we can edit it down from over 3000 pages to something under 1000.
The Doors were originally named the Windows, until they were sued by a time travelling Bill Gates.
