General Trivia thread (the more obscure the better)

The founding member of this innovative psychedelic rock folk band called innovative football coaching legend Clark Shaughnessy Grandpa on his mother's side.
 
Some timely parade trivia: What song was the marching band playing when Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper joined the parade in "Easy Rider?"
 
Oh, is this a quiz thread? Well, I'm not quizzing. I think this might be as obscure as it gets.

If you've watched the TV series Yellowstone, you've seen the references to "the train station" where they can dump bodies and get away with murder because there's no criminal jurisdiction whatsoever there. Sounds like something Taylor Sheridan made up, but it's real.
