* The intro to "Still Life" is completely unrelated to the song, featuring some backmasked talking. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZvIWcZnOjw When it is reversed]], instead of subliminal satanic messages you find one drunken flat-nosed drummer impersonating Idi ~~Amin.~~Amin.
* In his memoir, Bruce revealed that Steve writes songs by whistling into a tape recorder and transposing it later. He claims the whistling version of "The Trooper" sounded like, "A cheerful postman walking up the garden path to deliver the mail."

* In a concert at Brazil, a banner reading "Play 'Alexander the Great'" was thrown at the stage. Bruce's response? [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vEIgAJm03ZM This]]. Hard to pick what's funnier: an EpicRocking song played in the ''kazoo'', or [[AudienceParticipationFailure the crowd showing they don't know the lyrics.]]
