Music Trivia
by dennis

The Rolling Stones
The Rolling Stones made up exactly one third of the total viewing audience of the short-lived 1999 television bomb "Work with Me", starring Kevin Pollack and Nancy Travis.

The 1968 album Beggars Banquet originally included a version of the eventual J-Lo hit "Jenny from the Block."

Keith Richards is a social smoker.

The Rolling Stones played their first show under the name The Information Superhighways. The boys abandoned the name after David Bowie said that he thought it made them sound like "double-decker dweeb burger supremes."

The Beach Boys
Brian Wilson has said that most of his songs rip off the "My Three Sons" theme music in one way or another.

Dennis Wilson once described legendary producer Phil Spector as “a nice, non-murdering dude.”

Today, the Beach Boys still tour with Mike Love serving as their front man. Al Jardine leads his own incarnation of the group, The Shitty Beach Boys.

New information suggests that The Beach Boys unfinished masterpiece Smile was never completed because Brian Wilson could not find the right camel to harmonize with a table leg for the album's opening track.

Mike Love’s real name is Mike Mike. He changed it after David Bowie told him that only twerps have the same first and last name.

Chuck Berry
Chuck Berry claims to be a better sandal repairman than a breakthrough rock & roll artist.

T-Bone Walker once called Berry "the Bob Mould of his generation."

It has been said that without Chuck Berry there would be no Peabo Bryson. Unfortunately, Rupert Holmes would still exist.

During a 1964 performance of "Johnny B. Goode," Berry accidentally crooned that Johnny could "play the guitar like he was waxing a car." He was immediately booed off the stage.

Chuck Berry’s real name is David Bowie. David Bowie was all, "change your fuckin' name, mo-fo!"
