It has long been known Stevie Nicks is really a male cleptomaniac.

Route 66 was built by the Romans because they could no longer get their kicks from debauchery and over-indulgence.

Irish pillock Elvis Costello always refers lovingly to the two superstars he pays homage to in his stagename.
 
 
Sadly for us, the Lou Presley twins are no longer here to verify his story.

At a recent seance, Thin Lizzy frontman Phil Lynott is reported to have instructed the Ouija Board to spell out "Leslie Crowther - Come On Down!".
 
This was later refuted by "The Price Is Right" afficionadas as they say that Crowther has disqualified himself from contention by bidding above the price of the prize on offer - Sting's fretless harmonica.

10CC conveniently forgot to mention that that their sexually crude eponymous band name refers to all of them - at least twice.

(Now this one is 100% fact).....
 
 
Dear old 'queen' Freddie Mercury once went to his doctor to find out why he was feeling so poorly.
 
"Well Fred" said his physician, "There's no easy way to break this bad news to you so I'll just come straight out with it - you've got AIDS"
 
"Sheesh" said Freddie "Is there anything you can do?"
 
"Actually there is Fred - tommorow I want you to get up early and eat devilled mushrooms with garlic and sprout stuffing on wholemeal toast for breakfast. Then, for lunch I want you to go to the pub and sink seven pints of Guinness and eat Chili Con Carne, the hotter the better. At about five in the evening, I want you to go to your local curry house and order a Chicken Vindaloo extra spicy with added green chillies. Make certain you sup a few pints of fizzy lager during the meal. After that, I want you to spend the night dancing in your favourite club, but make certain you drink at least ten pints of rough cider and six pints of Banks's mild ale. On the way home, I'd advise that you eat a couple of undercooked cheeseburgers sold from a van owned by an unshaven sweaty illegal Turkish immigrant. Finally, make certain you eat a dodgy Greek doner kebab - no salad, extra chilli sauce - before heading home".
 
"Wow Doc" said Fred, "Will that cure me?"
 
"Sadly no" replied the doctor. "But it sure will teach you what your azzhole is really for".
 
 
   


Dangit Strummy, I need to breathe sometime in the next two jokes....

Pardon me while I attempt to regain some degree of respiration and verbal control... 

Oh my... and it's only Monday...

No problem Russell...
 
 
Following the worldwide success of Dave Grohl's post Nirvana band, USAF top brass involved with Project 'Blue Book' have since reclassified high atmosphere unidentified pheneomena as 'Food Fighters'.
 
However, since this directive has taken effect, the throwing of solid nutitional comestibles in Air Force canteens has been banned.

Tedious Canadian rockers "Rush" were so named at their first recording session when their one-time manager and producer Hermann 'Hurry Up" Goebbels implored the guys to hurry up or 'rush' to finish a three bar bridge part that had so far taken nearly four years to lay down on tape.

Marillion singer 'Fish' once explained that his piscean pseudonym was chosen simply on the toss of a coin....
 
 
He is, however, quite pleased that now he is not referred to as "Wiv chips, mushy peas, and a dollop of scratchings, dollop of vinegar plenty of salt".

"Metallica" are the last band ever to be "Periodic Table" associatedly-named in the so-called 'Plastic' era.
 
Thankfully, "Bakelite Maiden" and "Polypropylene Zeppelin" changed their names just in time.

None of the band 'Asia' were in fact born on that continent.
 
However, their manager Ghenghis Gaddafi did once visit Hong Kong as a student on a cultural exchange trip.
 
On his return he explained to the guys that if they wanted to rebrand themselves, their world globe did in fact spin on its axis, should all the residual drug paraphernalia be removed, before they stuck a pin in it.

Longtime firearm user and NRA member Ted Nugent is, in fact, an anagram of 'Ed Gun Tent'.

Paul Weller's seminal punk/mod fusion band The Jam was so named because he couldn't spell 'peanut butter'.

#7 (revisted) - Although it appears to be painfully obvious to most, Keith Richards died over 10 years ago.  Thing is, nobody thought to inform Keith...

27. Planet hugger Sting owns 1,283 Fender 'fretted' basses all made of 'fair-trade' timber from sustainable forests. But he only appears in videos with his one single 'fretless' model because he is a twat.
