The confusion is understandable since they did play {{Grunge}} (also known as the "Seattle Sound"), they were based in Seattle after making it big, and they were responsible for Seattle becoming well-known in mainstream popular culture.

* Everybody knows that Music/PinkFloyd is '''''the''''' PsychedelicRock band. Which is true...if you're talking about their [[EarlyInstallmentWeirdness first two albums]], released in the late 1960s. But by the time they had become internationally known in the early 1970s with ''Music/TheDarkSideOfTheMoon'', they had pretty firmly transitioned to ProgressiveRock. And despite the generally stereotype that their fans tend to be [[TheStoner stoners]], their songs seldom (if ever) mention drugs, and essentially '''never''' portray drug use positively--which is rather understandable, considering [[Music/SydBarrett their first leader]] was forced to leave the band due to a tragic mental breakdown brought about (in part) by LSD use. On the whole, their music catalogue tends to explore political and literary themes far more often than anything related to drugs.

** Speaking of politics, it's commonly believed (especially by Americans) that the line "Hey you Whitehouse!" from "[[Music/Animals1977 Pigs (Three Different Ones)]]" is a reference to the POTUS (UsefulNotes/JimmyCarter when the album was released but UsefulNotes/GeraldFord while the album was being recorded) or the U.S. government in general. It's actually a reference to English MoralGuardian [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Whitehouse Mary Whitehouse]], though this is an understandable mistake to make as no one outside of the U.K. has really heard of her (outside of being mentioned in this song) and the words "White House" obviously means something else to Americans.

* Music/SmashMouth's "All Star" was not written for the ''WesternAnimation/Shrek1'' soundtrack, as MemeticMutation would suggest. The song actually debuted in 1999 (''Shrek'' came out in 2001), and it was featured in the soundtracks of multiple films before ''Shrek'', including ''Film/InspectorGadget1999'', ''Film/MysteryMen'', and ''Anime/DigimonTheMovie''. Ironically: despite being most commonly associated with ''Shrek'', its [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_jWHffIx5E official music video]] is a direct tie-in with ''Mystery Men''. However, their cover of "[[Music/TheMonkees I'm a Believer]]" ''was'' recorded for the ''Shrek'' soundtrack, which may have contributed to the misconception.

* People who are fans of neither DeathMetal nor Music/{{Slayer}} will often say that Slayer plays death metal. Their actual genre is ThrashMetal: they're even known as one of the "Big Four" of thrash. The key distinction is that Slayer's music lacks the HarshVocals that define the death metal genre. This mistake was notably made in an episode of ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'', where Cartman plays "Raining Blood" to scare off hippies because they "can't stand death metal".

** To the extent that any band's performance can be considered a precipitating cause of the riots - a dubious proposition, given the structural issues mentioned above - that would be festival closers Music/RedHotChiliPeppers. And even then, it's less "precipitating cause" and more "pile-up of horrible coincidences": given that UsefulNotes/{{Columbine}} had happened not long before, the decision had been made to make anti-gun violence a major theme of the festival. Despite the disturbances of the previous days as well as internal opposition from the production team, organizers went ahead with the distribution of hundreds of thousands of candles meant for a vigil, which indeed [[HopeSpot created a beautiful tableau of a sea of lights]] backdropping "Under the Bridge." However, by the time RHCP came back on for their encore, those candles had been used to [[FromBadToWorse light the first bonfires]] that would eventually blaze out of control were appearing in the crowd (which led to Anthony Keidas's bemused observation "holy shit, it's ''Film/{{Apocalypse Now}} ''out there"). The band's choice for an encore? A cover of Music/{{Jimi Hendrix}}'s "Fire" at the request of Hendrix's sister. That just set things up for the matches-in-the-sawdust-filled-room moment that followed; attendees had been vaguely promised a major capstone performance, perhaps reprising an act from the original Woodstock, and were indeed given one...in the form of ''archival footage ''of Hendrix's '69 Woodstock performance as Peter Lang [[AntiClimax thanked everyone for attending]]. After a weekend of price-gouging and substandard facilities, attendees were ''not ''feeling charitable, and the now-infamous riots kicked off.

The first F-bomb doesn't appear until the second chorus and the second occurs shortly before the song wraps up, but a lot of people immediately sing "Who the fuck are you, who who, who who, who the fuck are you, who who, who who..." etc. when singing it.
