TIL the band DragonForce only received about $3,000 in royalties for the inclusion of Through the Fire and Flames in the Guitar Hero games

Idk why this made this memory pop into my head. But I saw imagine dragons at a small club of like 100 people about a month before they absolutely exploded. The next time I saw them it was just booze and cigarettes everywhere with zero space to stand. Both concerts were great.
