• Lyric mayhem: Think you know the words to "Louie Louie" or "Informer"? Think again. We try to make sense of famous mumblers.

• Truth or lie?: Rock star legends are wild - but some are just made up. Ozzy, Bowie, and Hendrix all feature in this ridiculous round.

From stitched-up goon bags in orange juice boxes to goon taps in trousers, this episode reveals the lengths people will go to sneak booze (and more) into events.
