No, it's not the name of some new progressive indie band. It's far worse. A study of 5,000 kids in the UK (aged between 6-15) has shown that 5% think that Bob Geldof discovered gravity. Sauce: The Telegraph Any other 'musicians' you reckon could have come up with world changing theories. I fancy Ian Brown could have come up with evolution myself.

Atomic Kitten discovering the Theory of Relativity? (as proposed by a guy over on the CLUAS Facebook page). Although I'd say a better chance it was Mick Jones of the Clash (during his time with Big Audio Dynamite...)

No way Big Tom was paying main dealer prices on that yoke.
