* [[The Who|Keith Moon]]: Perhaps one of the pure concentration of [[Crazy Awesome]] in real life.
* [[The Protomen (Music)|The Protomen]] are somewhere between this and [[Shrouded in Myth]]. With the band's facepaint, codenames, and some if not all members being robots, it's [[Justified]].
** Panther's singing can melt faces off.
* [[Megadeth (Music)|Shawn Drover]] muffles his bass drum with SOULS.
* God created Earth. Chuck Norris created God. Rick Wakeman composed Chuck Norris while drunk out of his skull. His website has a number of good Rick Wakeman facts. (Got everyone in the studio to drink all day, barricaded the bathroom, then mic'd a echo chamber and got people to piss in it at the same time.)
** Of course, Don Francisco taught Rick Wakeman everything he knew...
*** And Don Francisco was created because Earth Herself was bored...
* It's scientifically verifiable fact that [[JAM Project]] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8xqskiIehfk can make anything awesome].
* [[Motorhead (Music)|Lemmy]]
* MOTHERFUCKING [[Slayer (Music)|Slayer]] is the most badass band this side of Venom!
* It's a scientifically-proven fact that [[Queen|Freddie Mercury]] didn't die of AIDS. Pure epic power simply overwhelmed his body and he ascended back to the higher plane of existence from whence he came.
* King of the ocean! Master of the universe! Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No! It's Clarence Clemons!
* [["Weird Al" Yankovic]]'s 2009 single ''CNR'' is all about telling the badass traits of... [[Match Game|Charles Nelson Reilly]].
** And to purposefully one-up Chuck Norris, the music video displays CNR's trophy room, complete with the mounted head of everyone's favorite Texas Ranger.
* [[David Bowie]].
* [[Frank Zappa|Studebaker Hoch]], superhero of the modern economic slump. Unfortunately for him, he forgot an important fact: {{spoiler|you don't fuck with Billy the Mountain}}.
* On the [[Iron Maiden (Music)|Iron Maiden]] forum Maidenfans, they even founded the [http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Holy-Church-of-Adrian-Smith/111817128839149 Holy Church of Adrian Smith]. (note: he's the guitarist)
* [[Snoop Dogg]]
* [[Dragon Force (video game)|Herman Li.]]
* [[Helloween (Music)|Michael Kiske]], for Helloween fans. [http://www.helloweenboard.com/topic/3292-michael-kiske-facts/ He's on his way to become one]{{Dead link}}.
* Mark Gormley. That is all.
* Most [[Dream Theater (Music)|Dream Theater]] videos on [[YouTube]] have exaggerated facts about their playing skills in the comments, but John Petrucci gets the most, partially due to the popularity of the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bD7ZnJdi2rY John Petrucci Psycho Exercises] videos.
* Angela Gossow of Arch Enemy has this reputation, and to a lesser extent, so do all female artists who scream or growl in metal and metalcore bands (see the vocalists for [[The Agonist]], Otep, Walls of Jericho, and Straight Line Stitch for more examples.)
