How about the rumor that Ozzy shot all of his first wife’s 30+ cats with a shotgun…in their living room?

Ayn Rand | 4/2/2007, 7:09 pm EST

Biggest untrue rumor of all: James Blunt is talented.

S.O. | 4/2/2007, 7:24 pm EST

Richard Gere took a gerbil & shoved it up his butt. Oh that’s right, he’s not a musician. It’s a huge rumor till this day thought.

Keith Moon SAID he drove a car into a holiday inn pool. In an interview. WITH ROLLING STONE.

Schraminator | 4/2/2007, 8:51 pm EST

I would agree with #1 that Paul is Dead rumor, but I would put #2 Dark Side of the Moon goes simutameously with Alice in Wonderland. Also “Stairway to Heaven” backwards is about Hell and Satan.

Gremlin | 4/2/2007, 8:56 pm EST

How about: Ronnie Van Zant (Lynyrd Skynyrd) was buried in a Neil Diamond t-shirt.

Gremlin | 4/2/2007, 9:05 pm EST

exuse me, it was a neil young t-shirt

Anonymous | 4/2/2007, 9:06 pm EST

Bill Brasky once named the group Sha-Na-Na. They did NOT want to be called that.

www.cafepress.com/lecc66 | 4/2/2007, 9:06 pm EST

paul mccartney harassed me here in north adelaide yesterday. let me tell you the paul is dead and we replaced him story from the 60s was right; looked fine, and was driving one of thos SUVs and later on I explained to a native local why the PLO flag was flying in the area. She replied, Oh it’s like high school then? Incidentally, the UK band which did the song about this boat is sinking? Taken from that mss I did in 1980, where I’m washing spotlessly clean glasses in the basement of the London hare krishna temple? At the sink there? The guy is a doctor here and used my birthdate toopen a small clinic. A liberal MP named Armitage officially opened it on my birthday. That’s why US also had an Armitage. But lyrics were plagiarised and then they made hare krishna illegal here just like in Ukraine and USSR.

danno | 4/2/2007, 9:43 pm EST

Guns n’ Roses (Axl Rose) will release an album titled Chinese Democracy — yeah right!!!!

Geoff | 4/2/2007, 9:56 pm EST

The Marianne Faithfull one happened at Keith’s place, not Mick’s.

AHA | 4/2/2007, 9:58 pm EST

I can say the Frank Zappa, Alice Cooper thing in untrue according to Zappa and Cooper. The Led Zeppelin fish thing was a rumor started by a roadie. There is a Zappa song about this on Mothers Live at the Fillmore, he says he heard the rumor from the Vanilla Fudge. If McCartney did die they did a great job of replacing him. He not only looks like Paul, but he sounds like him and is a hell of a song writer. No one cares if Elvis, Morrison or Cobain are alive. I have seen pictures of M. Jackson when he was black. According R Van Zants widow he is buried in a suit. Dylan is not the devil but I think the new pope may be the anti-christ. One last thing w0nderwall put the pipe down and get your head out of your A** Oasis has to be the most overated band since ASIA (Who you ask… EXACTLY)

Danny | 4/2/2007, 10:37 pm EST

The Marilyn manson one is the best.

Band with the runs... | 4/2/2007, 11:22 pm EST

Yeah, so Paul McCartney didn’t die… But it must be hell going through life with everyone thinking “Someone killed the wrong Beatle……! But Paul’s doing ok, he is now on the STARBUCK’S label! God could Lennon write a song about that!
How do you sleep?

J | 4/2/2007, 11:42 pm EST

The Robert Johnson one is definitely true.

Andrew | 4/2/2007, 11:51 pm EST

Carmine Appice from Vanilla Fudge claims the mudshark and groupie was his, and Plant and Page watched.

Steven | 4/3/2007, 12:07 am EST

26. Tupac was raped while in prison.

lik roper | 4/3/2007, 12:39 am EST

GNR sold musical equipment they bought with their first record company advance money and bought drugs…

Lono | 4/3/2007, 12:41 am EST

To Bill Brasky!

About half of these are true, and I would encourage all to visit the great snopes.com for details.

Oh, this one wasn’t there… and I regard it as one of the greats.

James Taylor’s Fire & Rain was written about Taylor’s girlfriend (Susanne) being flown from the East Coast to visit him in LA. Problem is, the plane crashed and she died.

* while that would be a near literal interpretation, it isn’t true at all. Taylor said that song was written over the course of years, and is three mini stories. ‘flying machines in pieces on the ground’ is a refernce to a band Taylor was in with this brother.

Oh, and I heard when I was a kid that Ozzy used to:

1. pass around a bucket for people to piss in and he would drink it before the show

2. passed out puppies to the crowd and would not start the show until the audience killed them and passed them back up front.

also total BS. Ozzy is probably a better Christian that I am

Bobby of course... | 4/3/2007, 2:01 am EST

Mister Dylan it’s himself the biggest and most misterious mith and rumour in the story of rock and roll, with no doubt he could be reunite all of their fantastic stories that you heard…and never get so high like Dylan increidible and rumored stories

coemgen | 4/3/2007, 2:04 am EST

Isn’t this kind of a pointless list? I mean, can’t we just make up crap that tops others on the list?

“Uh, Sam Kennison, Rick James and the guy from Mili Vanili are coming back from the dead to form a band called “Tom Cruise Snorts Prozac” It’s true, I swear.”

Socks the Cat | 4/3/2007, 2:17 am EST

During a puppies concert, the band passed out Marlyn Manson & Ozzy to the crowd and would not start the show until the audience killed them and passed them back up fron

Forget where exactly I read it, but picked up a story that a rock journalist in the late 60’s interviewed an elderly homeless man who claimed he had invented rock back in 1910. Probably 99.9% untrue, but still….

java face | 4/3/2007, 6:55 am EST

Gerard Way (my chemical romance frontman) is actually Billy Corgan (Smashing pumpkins frontman).

jatryme | 4/3/2007, 8:07 am EST

that there have been three bob dylans: the first died in a motorcycle accident and was replaced by a look/sound a like the record companies found. the second was so poorly recieved by the fans that he was killed by the label. the third is the dylan we have today

it seems much more funny to me that Van Zant might be buried wearing a Neil Diamond t-shirt.

Dirk Neptune | 4/3/2007, 12:31 pm EST

Sean doesn’t believe Mark David Chapman was simply a ‘deranged fan’. If Sean believes that, it seems to follow that Yoko does too. I don’t know what the truth is, but I’d love if someone could ‘give me some…’

Billy Corgan played Vicki the robot’s older brother on the 80’s hit show ‘Small Wonder’

Jame | 4/3/2007, 3:12 pm EST

I have to agree with Pope Judas Chad Smith and Will Ferrell look identical. They at least have to be twins if not the same person.

Helpless Dancer | 4/3/2007, 3:15 pm EST

Woohoo! my rumor about keith moon made the list! yay!

Matt A. | 4/3/2007, 5:36 pm EST

Also. The dude who played Paul Pfeifer on the Wonder Years is now a lawyer in New York City and his name is not Marilyn Manson.

And, the Pearl Jam one is true. They did name the band after Eddy’s grandmothers homemade jam.

alan | 4/3/2007, 5:52 pm EST

Mark David Chapman *was* a programmed assassin. See http://www.ciakilledlennon.blogspot.c om

Terry | 4/3/2007, 6:55 pm EST

Pearl Jam was named after Earl “The Pearl” Monroe the story about the jam was made up to mess with the press.

SundaeG1rl | 4/3/2007, 8:03 pm EST

I believe Debbie Harry herself tells the story of the Ted Bundy incident. Straight from the horse’s mouth has gotta be true! (not saying that Debbie’s a horse, mind)

Anonymous | 4/3/2007, 8:04 pm EST

pj was named after seeing neil young played.

SundaeG1rl | 4/3/2007, 8:05 pm EST

Oh, and Pearl Jam is a blatant euphemism for spunk, jism or whatever you call the stuff that springs forth from your porridge gun in your part of the world. They’re having you all on, just as Musical Youth with the Dutchie/cooking pot story…

JIMBO | 4/3/2007, 8:14 pm EST

I agree with java face MCR(and most of the alternative scene) sure as hell copy The Smashing Pumpkins

SanDiego | 4/3/2007, 8:27 pm EST

Debbie Harry confirmed the Ted Bundy rumour in NME’s 2006 ‘rock and roll yearbook’.

Take Five | 4/3/2007, 9:44 pm EST

Roger Daltrey very recently insisted that Keith Moon drove a car into a pool. I’m not sure about the location but it seems like he said it cost the band $50,000.

Acording to the rumor, the song talk about an old girlfriend who was buried alive…

That´s the best one I know

Huh? | 4/4/2007, 1:50 pm EST

16. Then didn’t Phil Collins let him drown too?

jojo | 4/4/2007, 2:43 pm EST

FZappa recalled the fish incident in the album Fillmore East, June 1971. (Much of this album is given to an oral, so to speak, history of good old rock’n'roll decadence by Professors Flo & Eddie. It’s the story of an Unnamed Rock Band, the Edgewater Inn, the young ladies they find there and an unsuspecting saltwater creature — that’s right, you heard right, the secret word was “Mud Shark”.)

Dan | 4/4/2007, 3:49 pm EST

Charles Manson did not audition for the Monkees. Not only was he in his 30’s and ugly, while the studio was looking for 17-21 year old male models, but he was also in prison from 1961-’67.

Moonie | 4/4/2007, 5:04 pm EST

Gerard Way is the bastard love child of Billy Corgan and Liza Minelli.

“You are my new baby, whom I adore”—Liza

“I fathered a child, and since he is now so successful as the singer of my chemical romance, I want to rock out with my son.”

True story. Corgan was ten.

redd | 4/5/2007, 12:38 pm EST

Ronnie VanZant was buried in a flannel shirt and jeans, his wife stated in their “Behind the Music”

Reader | 4/6/2007, 2:28 am EST

The CIA was engaged in a massive and well-documented mind-control program called MKULTRA. Mark David Chapman was very likely among their many subjects. To lump likely CIA operations in with patently bogus nonsense is the most insidious sort of disinformation.

Awesome80s | 4/6/2007, 3:55 pm EST

Fall-out Boy and Panic! at The Disco are the same band and they both suck royally!

Kurt | 4/6/2007, 8:40 pm EST

The Keith Moon story is true. I was the pool boy at the Holiday Inn when it occured.

I was also working at the Edgewater when Carmine, Robert and Jimmy used the fish on the groupie.It was a Carp.

Stevie did have a friend blow coke up her ass. I was working backstage in concessions at the time and I provided the straw.

However, Paul McArtney and Bob Dylan are alive and are the originals. Elvis, Curt Cobain, Jim Morrison, Jimi, Mama Cass, Brian Jones and Keith Richards are all dead.

Dank Smoker | 4/6/2007, 8:49 pm EST

How about that Brian Jones was killed by the guy that was working on his house and that he admitted it on his deathbed but it’s been kept under wraps since.

“12. During a drug bust on Mick’s place Marianne Faithfull was …”
hey: the place where this never happened was Redlands, which was/is Keith’s residence, not Mick’s.

I personally always though that ronnie van zant being buried in a neil young t-shirt was always pretty funny.

Sir Edward Van Halen | 4/12/2007, 11:04 am EST

Have You heard this one?……
Van Halen has fucked everyone of their fans….numerous times!!!

Mili | 4/12/2007, 12:31 pm EST

Excuse me,I didn’t mean that Axl is not Axl,I meant,that he is changed now.And about the rumors…Will Slash go back to Axl and will there be Guns N’ Roses (real,I mean) again?

Angie Bowie told the David/Mick story on a talk show hosted by Joan Rivers.

That’s a first person account. Not a rumor

Plastow | 4/16/2007, 10:16 pm EST

Angie Bowie DID come home and find Mick on a bed with Bowie. But the truth was that they came home from somewhere absolutely F***ed and just crashed on the same bed.
They were ON the bed together not IN the bed.

26. KISS is actually an anagram for Knights In Satan’s Service

Geddoh | 7/7/2007, 10:41 am EST

4. Could be true. Angie Bowie claimed she caught her husband in bed with Mick Jagger on a daytime talk show. Later when David Bowie’s lawyers reviewed the terms of her alimony she backed away from the story.

6. The Led Zeppelin shark story was that the groupie was violently stuffed full of cutup shark pieces, however in the biography Hammer of the Gods, it was stated by their road manager that it was red snapper and that she loved it.

9. Keith Moon claimed, in a Rolling Stone interview, that, after running from what he mistakenly thought was a police raid on his birthday party, he hid in a parked car and accidentally disengaged the parking break and sent it rolling into the Flint Holiday Inn pool.

12. Keith Richards denied the Marianne Faithfull candy bar story, but strangely knew what brand it was lol.

18. Jack and Meg White are not brother and sister. This is a gimmick they use to this day. In fact they were married but are now divorced.

22. Charles Manson very well may have auditioned for the Monkees as he was actively seeking a recording career at that time. It is fairly well known that he was involved with Dennis Wilson of the Beach Boys and one of his songs is very similar to one of theirs.

24. Robert Johnson claimed that he sold his soul to the devil in exchange for his guitar-playing gifts. He also referred to it in several of his songs.

25. Roy Orbison was neither albino or blind. However, he did have extremely poor vision

1,001. rolling stone is a credible magazine about popular music and culture.

wackoman | 7/7/2007, 5:08 pm EST

Jimi Hendrix appeared on the tongiht show and gave props to Phil Keagy and on the dick cavett show and gave props to Billy Gibbons who later went on to play guitar for zz top.

(This was for the guy who mention jimi talking about SRV.

Smells Like Teen Armpits | 7/9/2007, 4:59 pm EST

That Kurt Cobain was a talented artist/musician…

nano | 7/11/2007, 4:43 pm EST

some I remember:

26. Peter Frampton was poisoned during a dinner (1978)
27. John Travolta was poisoned during a dinner (1978)
28. Peter Criss killed himself when a fan saw him without make-up (1980)
29. George Harrison is dead (70s)
30. Elvis is alive
31. Jim Morrison is alive
32. Gene Simmons killed little chicken onstage (1980)
33. Axl Rose didn’t want to “get my boots dirty walking on Argentine land” (before GN’R came to Argentina in 1992)
34. The Strokes are talented

Jack the KoRn fan | 7/12/2007, 1:54 pm EST

“Elvis is alive” no.34?!

dj | 7/16/2007, 11:43 pm EST

Please leave Michael Jackson alone! He’s just an unattractive, mixed up, poor little middle-aged white woman.

a big one for me is that courtney love killed/hired someone to kill/ coerssed kurt cobain into killing himself… i’ve gone back and forth on this one, a lot of evidence that someone killed him and other evidence that he killed himself… the whole two suicide notes thing all that
