Hereabouts, the canonical version of this story involves Marc Almond,
vocalist with early 'eighties synthpop duo Soft Cell, and the semen of
a horse.
In interviews, the horse has consistently refuted the story.

Indeed, this is the exact story I always heard - Marc Almond, horse,
stomach pumped. Heard it several times often in various mainstream
media. I think there may even have been a court case on the matter at
some stage in the 80's.
>In interviews, the horse has consistently refuted the story.
Whereas Marc Almond hasn't. I recall an episode of The Word (the
Channel 4 yoof-tv-show) where Marc Lamarr mentioned this story in an
interview with Almond, amidst much tittering. IIRC Almond made some
evasive remark, but most certainly did not deny the story outright.
Of course, that show was famous for self-promotion more-so than
anything else (ref. Dani Behr).

I heard it about Rod Stewart in the early '80's and more recently about
Alannis. BTW, Gwen's last name is Stefani.
Also:
- Alice Cooper drank a cup of spit filled by the audience
- Frank Zappa ate human feces on stage
- Ozzy Osbourne bit the head off a bat and fainted during a concert

Now for my contributions:
-One member of Marilynn Manson had a sex change operation so that
he/she/it could have vaginal intercourse with Manson himself.
Led Zepplinn's Jimmy Paige had sex with a pair of thirteen year old
identical twin girls he met after a concert, then gave them to Robert
Plant as a gift.
Michael Jackson owns a boarding school in Thailand.
Courtney Love used to take men/women from the audience and have sex with
them on stage.
Any more?

Also true, they have also been known to bring an apparently
pregnant fan on stage, cut her open and beat the foetus to death on the
stage (all done with latex suits).
>Courtney Love used to take men/women from the audience and have sex with

I heard she collaborated on an album by getting screwed in a
studio. This was of course taped and put at the beginnig of a song. She
also got wasted and spent the night outside Damon from Blur's house
shouting obscenities in the hope he would come down and talk to her.
needless to say, he didnt.

This is true. Weird as tits on a bishop, but true.
Just a temporary lapse. Frank later corrected the mistake and
removed one of the names from each child.

Frank Zappa once took exception when Terry Gross (Fresh Air) opined he
was weird. "Me weird? I've been married to the same woman for 25 years
and have brought up four children ... Michael Jackson wants to buy the
skeleton of the Elephant Man. That is weird."
Naming two of his children Moon Unit and Dweezil does seem a little
eccentric to me, however.

News to me. Dweezil performs with his band under that name and Moon
Zappa has acted as an adult with that name.

Dweezil Zappa was born on September 5, 1969, and "Weasels Ripped My
Flesh" was released in Aug 1970. Pretty precocious kid Frank had

During a performance in New York in 1970, Traffic hurled six five-gallon
buckets of live hamsters into the audience, then spread mayonnaise in
their hair.
Mitcho
So you are telling us that the names are Dweezil Moon Unit Zappa
and Moon Unit Dweezil Zappa?
Moon is the first name, Unit the middle name, and Zappa the last name.
Sometimes people use only their first name, sometimes they use their first
and middle names. It doesn't matter if the names are common or not, or, as
in this case, they happen to form a cohesive unit together.
I don't know whether Dweezil or Diva have middle names. I've certainly
never heard that they have. Ahmet, however, has Rodan as his middle name.
Anyway, Dweezil's original birth certificate name was Ian Donald Calvin
Euclid Zappa - the hospital didn't want to let them use "Dweezil" on the
birth certificate. It was legally changed to Dweezil when he was five or
six years old (according to Frank, at Dweezil's own request.).

kind of man could name a child OHMAN-ah? To me, it defies the logic."
How extremely silly. Surely it would have been easier to spread the
mayonnaise in the rodents' hair *before* hurling the buckets.

Hmmm. Would that [1] have been in _The Real Frank Zappa Book_ (by Frank
Zappa with Peter Ochiogrosso, Poseidon Press, 1989, ISBN 0-671-63870-X?)
If so, you probably read something like this:
"The nurse pleaded and pleaded with us not to name the child Dweezil.
Labor pains and all, she was going to make Gail stand there unless we
gave her another name to put on the form. I couldn't see letting Gail
suffer just to argue the point, so I rattled off an assortment of first
names of guys we knew: IAN (Underwood) DONALD (Van Vliet) CALVIN (Schenkel)
EUCLID (James "Motorhead" Sherwood). As a result, Dweezil's original
birth certificate name was Ian Donald Calvin Euclid Zappa. The nurse
seemed to think that was okay.
"In spite of this harrowing experience, we always called him Dweezil.
He was five years old when he discovered the *real names* on his birth
certificate. ...
"Dweezil was very upset, and demanded that steps be taken to rectify
this tragedy. We hired an attorney and had his name legally changed to
Dweezil.
"That may have seemed like an unusual kind of demand for a five-year-
old, but Dweezil was a very unusual child."
So yes, Dweezil Zappa was originally named something else, but no, his parents
had his name legally changed to "Dweezil" when he was five - he didn't do it
himself when he turned 18 (the age you can legally change your own name in
most of the United States.)
By the way, Zappa begins the book by denying two other legends,
namely that:
1) he's the son of the guy who played Mr. Green Jeans on Captain Kangaroo;
and
2) that he ever ate shit on stage.
Larry "make friends with a librarian and get lots of free books!" Doering
The name has not been "removed," however. In an interview with Cindy
Pearlman published in the Sunday, October 12 Chicago _Sun-Times_ Zappa
stated, when asked, that "I use the full name. The name has been very
good to me."

>Naming two of his children Moon Unit and Dweezil does seem a little

I read somewhere once upon a time [1] that Dweezil's real
name was something fairly pedestrian because whoever was in
charge of such things at the hospital where he [2] was born
refused to write "Dweezil" on the birth certificate.
Dweezil found this out and had his name legally changed [3]
when he reached the age at which he could do so. - Tony (who

I wonder what about consuming a large amount of jism wouls require

in the house who might have something to say about this?
I have also on ocasion heard references to stray drops of semen in
the eyes causing blindness. Where does this notion come from?
Aside from causing pregnancy and perhaps vectoring some disease it

Aside from perhaps conditions of probation, is it even possible in the
USA to be banned from a community?
You may be saying that he is banned from performing there, which is
different (and would, I assume, depend on the local entertainment
licensing type laws).
Since communities cannot ban released criminals (and thus, Megans Law),
I doubt that they can ban unentertaining performers.

I saw him on a TV interview this year in which he told the story of
being caught doing this. He did not say that he was banned from the
town though.

That's a different situation. The whole deal with Megan's Law was
_adding_ punishment that was not part of the sentence for the crime. If
part of his sentence for breaking the law was that he not set foot in
town again, then I see no problem with it.
Wasn't the Alamo he pissed on -- it was the memorial cenetaph in Alamo
Plaza, IIRC. Wasn't banned from SA, per se, but didn't attempt to book a
concert there for years. That of course was a slight financial blow for
his Texas concert tours, San Antonio being the heavy metal/hard rock
capital of Texas (Its also the Tejano/Conjunto capital, FWIW). He played
at the Alamodome a few years back only after making a formal apology and
giving a quite substantial donation the Daughters of the Republic of
Texas, the caretakers of the Alamo.

Well, according to the Semen Home Page (I couldn't believe it either!),
at http://www.ibmpcug.co.uk/~amba/txt/semen.htm, semen contains several
different acids; I'd guess that it's somewhat more acidic than tears
(which, I believe are slightly alkaline).
Not mentioned on the semen page is hyaluronic acid, which turned up
in a "News of the Weird" story several years back -- some haircare
products contain it, but in very small quantities. Evidently, they
get the hyaluronic acid from human semen, which costs something many
thousands of dollars per liter.
Also, the hyaluronic acid molecule is featured in a molecular diagram
JavaBean applet provided in Sun's JDK.

I have to ask. Are those some sort of specialty haircare
products....say, used only for palm hair?

He is no longer banned from San Antonio, but that was true for a time,
and Ozzy publically apologized for it. He talks about the bat thing and
