It is a little known fact that all of these musicians have a tattoo on the small of their back. The tattoos are identical--they show a mama penguin feeding fish to a baby penguin. The one difference is that Beck also included some colours above his penguins to represent the Northern Lights .

That's very, very nearly there - but there's something special about those accidents. This is open to Gary (Cord) for 12 hours to clarify his answer before throwing it open to the forum. ;)

Yes, that's correct. :)

James Hetfield was badly burned by pyrotechnics in 1992.

Beck was being held in the air by his bassist at the end of a concert in 2001. The bassist let him down with a thump on his bass, causing internal bruising.

In 1971, Frank Zappa was pushed from the stage by a crazed fan. His larynx was crushed and his spine damaged, keeping him in a wheelchair for almost a year.

Alice Cooper was knocked off stage by a giant toybox in 1975. He broke several ribs and needed stitches in his head.

Pete Townshend impaled his hand on his guitar's tremolo arm at a gig in the late '80s. Ouch.

Bono slipped on a wet stage in 1987 and damaged his ego. Sorry, I meant his shoulder, which he dislocated.

The point goes to Gary! ^_^

Jasper Carrott and Serge Gainsbourg

You got me---I don't even know who these two are.
I took my brains out and stretched 'em on a rack
Now I'm not so sure I'm ever gonna get 'em back
