Fighting - Oasis

Liam and Noel Gallagher had been fighting since forever, it seems like. A recording of one of their fights ("Wibbling Rivalry") reached the UK charts in 1995. Noel Gallagher's departure from the band (and the band's eventual breakup) stemmed from a fight backstage with Liam.

Catchy choreography in their online music videos - OK Go!

OK Go! became an internet sensation when they posted their (seemingly) low-budget music videos on YouTube and fans became so enthralled with the band's fancy footwork that a number of copycat videos soon popped up as well.

Tribute to Pink Floyd - The Orb

The Orb Live 93 has for its cover art a parody of the Pink Floyd "Animals" album. That album has a pink pig floating and coasting in a dark sky over a factory. The Orb's cover art features a plush sheep hovering near a refinery or some sort of industrial complex. A silvery sun adorns and shines in the lemon-lime sky. The upper right corner says "orb live 93". The picture on the rear cover shows the plush sheep from the rear, floating away from the complex. On the upper left corner of the picture are the words in reverse. It now reads as "bro evil 39".

Celebrating a Solar Eclipse - Ozzy Osbourne

In Cartersville, Illinois there was the Moonstock heavy metal festival. This region was in the path of totality for the solar eclipse of August 21, 2017. Moments before the moon started to eclipse the sun Ozzy got on stage and he and his band kicked off his hit 'Bark At the Moon'. During that song the sun got totally eclipsed by the moon and the daytime turned into 'night'. By the time the song ended the sun 'reappeared' and daylight returned. This was all preplanned ahead of eclipse totality time. A landmark of heavy metal history, rock'n'roll history, astronomy history, Ozzy's checkered life and more. I wish I was there but where I was the sun was 90% eclipsed and I ain't complaining on that.
