Never been a 99er. Just always seemed it would be a pain in the backside.

Come on....everybody knows that a real 99 has a Flake from Cadbury's
Asdfgh is too subtle to stoop to this level, but I have no such qualms. Cadbury's Flake is too large for little kids. Ogden's Nut Gone Flake is for small faces.
Elvis did not leave the building. He took off the wig and stage clothes, put on an old T shirt, some dungarees, a pair of old sneakers and after the crowd had left, he joined the cleaning crew to earn some pocket money.
in 1969 Neil Armstrong played his Tranquility 4 string Bass on the moon. He also played some Eagles cover music . there is a recording of him telling the world about his bass and the music ... he said " Tranquility Bass is here , and the Eagles have landed! " they charged $16 for people to go see him play, $16 in 1969 money is like 3.5 million today!
iirc, Buzz was pretty annoyed that his whole drum kit was ruled out because there'd be no room for Michael Collins who didn't want to be left behind in Ireland again because of what happened last time.
After some half-hearted percussion, though, Neil played the opening riff to Pretty Vacant (Holiday In The Sun would have confused the 1kb onboard computer with disastrous results) and Buzz spontaneously did the pogo. Then he got drunk and fell over a lot.
A young Malcolm McLaren was watching and offered to manage them. They were turned down by EMI as, apparently, the globules of vomit were still floating around the executive office weeks later and their knighthoods were blown when they were rude to Her Maj.

An early handwritten draft of the lyrics for "Cat Scratch Fever" shows that it started out as a complaint about illegible handwriting under the working title of "Chicken Scratch Fever".
The band "Oasis" was named after a young Liam Gallagher greeted a nun.
Champagne Supernova was never intended to be a hit. In fact, Oasis never expected any airplay for the song as a "champagne supernova" is the Irish term for a sexual act that is forbidden in 12 European countries and 21 US States (in California, it is not forbidden but is highly regulated).
Elvis Presley, Keith Moon, Rick Gretch and Duane Allman formed an R&B / Death Metal band in Heaven called "The Other siders".
Unfortunately they haven't been able to release any music down to earth, because there is no music streaming service available in heaven that can reach Earth.

Lemmy faked his death. He wanted to pursue his true passion; playing keyboards in Taylor Swift's backing band.
Desert rock (called stoner rock by some) started out as dessert rock. To be considered true dessert rock, all songs had to be about pies, cakes, or pastries. The dessert rock scene in southern California collapsed when one band insisted on writing songs about beef pies and cakes of soap.
