"We'd just played Atlanta. Backstage there's girls parading around topless. So we round everybody up for an orgy. An orgy of theatrical tragedy, that is. We passed out scripts and had everybody perform Antigone. It's my favorite of Sophocles' Theban cycle and, you know what? For a bunch of half-naked amateurs, we knocked it out of the park." - Jimmy Page

"New York City is home to the sexiest girls on the planet. And they know how to party. God, do they know how to party! But what they don't know is how to plan out their 401(k) contributions to adequately prepare for retirement. Luckily, Winston is a guru with that stuff. After a show in June, he hooked some groupies up with a sick, tax-advantageous savings plan." - Marcus Mumford

"We're in Arizona and there's this guy backstage called Ozone. Long hair, crazy eyes, invites us to a firing range he owns. So we hop in our bus, like, 'Let's shoot some guns!' When we get there, we have a change of heart. So we melt down all of his rifles and turn them into trophies for underprivileged kids." - Nate Ruess
