* BigNameFan: Music/DaveGrohl of Music/{{Nirvana}} and Music/FooFighters included "It's Catching Up" from ''Wrong'' on his "Top 10 of All Time" playlist for ''Magazine/RollingStone'' in 2010. His old hardcore band Scream opened for Nomeansno in 1987, and he said in a 2007 interview that the Foo Fighters album ''Echoes, Silence, Patience and Grace'' was meant to combine the sounds of Nomeansno and Music/SteelyDan. He says John Wright's drumming was particularly influential on him.
