1. …that Paul Hewson (a.k.a. Sting from the Police) can maintain sex for up to 15 minutes?

2. …that Rod Ocasek, the guy from the Cars, doesn’t know how to drive a car?

3. …that Neil Young’s coke booger was rotoscoped (an early form of CGI [CGI is computer-generated-imagery {computer-generated-imagery is what you see in that movie UP that people won't shut UP about. Why are you going on endlessly about how good a kid's movie is? Grow up}]) out of the film The Last Waltz at the request of Young’s manager, making it the most expensive movie ever made? On the Criterion edition, it was put back in his nose and it cost an additional 10 million dollars to find it again.

4. …that Bill Oldham (a.k.a. Bonnie Prince Billie) got his start as an street urchin in Jim Belushi’s classic Curly Sue, which is where he developed the ideas for his hair style?

5. …that Ringo Starr invented rock drumming? (Look it up.)

  3. U2 will be Stung Says:

    I am ashamed to know this, but Paul Hewson is Bono, not Sting, who is Gordon Sumner.


  4. U2 will be Stung Says:

    That Sting joke was the most pathetic thing you have written

    Ohh, and who the fuck DOESN’T know about that Neil Young coke thing? I hope your band is better than your writing, but I’m not going to take the chance


  5. Jamie T Says:

    I think that even if you posted a link to a site where everyone could download a blowjob, people would still talk shit about you on here. What did you do Nick? Did you fuck the internet’s girlfriend or something? Why are they so pissed off?

    Did you guys know that Joey Ramone’s last name isn’t really Ramone!!!1


  10. Mike Says:

    Todd Rundgren was the first man to resemble an old lesbian, in 1978. Prove me wrong.


  11. Jamie T Says:

    I guess U2 must be stung is either sting or Bono. Still, I find that Nick takes more lumps on this site than most.


  12. Bitch Made Says:

    Nick “takes lumps” b/c he posts under a column entitled “Did you know…..” and the answer is always a resounding “Doye”

    Seriously, I could lend my dog my old copy of “Crazy Rock ‘n Roll” stories (or whatever) and he could produce similar drivel


  13. Dork Says:

    Todd Rundgren was hawt in 1978. Also, his sons are professional baseball players. Cool, huh?


  14. yeah Says:

    i think it’s hilarious that if you look at the time the comments were posted, you can see u2 will be stung came back 52 minutes later to leave his second comment. what a baby.

There’s a certain look girls have where you can just tell her boyfriend sucks and you could probably sweep her off her feet.

Looks like Dora the Explorer is all growed up and ready to party!
