Gene Simmons vs. Carlos Santana
-Heavy metal vs. Latin
-Carlos Santana made some anti-Kiss remarks. Santana, back in 2005 said "He's not a musician, he's an entertainer. Kiss is Las Vegas entertainment, so he wouldn't know what music is anyway. That's why he wears all that stuff."

Oasis vs. Blur
-British rock legends squaring off
-Blur is a group of middle class suburban London art school guys whereas Oasis consists of hard drinking, working class, blue collar Manchester men who picked fights.

Pavement vs. Smashing Pumpkins
-Pavement's front man Stephen Malkmus was quoted as saying "Out on tour with The Smashing Pumpkins/Nature's Kids, they have no function. I don't understand what they mean, and I could really give a f---". Smashing Pumpkins front man Billy Corgan took thgis offensively and said "I think it's rooted in jealousy. People don't fall in love to Pavement... they put on Smashing Pumpkins or Hole or Nirvana, because these bands actually mean something to them"

Mick Jagger vs. Keith Richards
-Stone against Stone
-These 2 have fought time and time again. It started in 1975 and got progressively worse during the 1980s and was made worse when Richards found out that Jagger was going on a solo tour and doing solo stuff. When Richards wanted to tour the Stones' Dirty Work album, Mick thought that it was not a good idea and this increased the distance between the two. Acting as a middle man between the two was Stones newbie Ronnie Wood. Jagger and Richards would not come together to do anything until 1989, when it came time to record The Stones' Steel Wheels album
Courtney Love vs. Ryan Adams
-She accused him of stealing $858,000 from her daughter Francis Bean's trust fund
-In 2009, Adams claimed he never touched Francis Cobain's money.

Metallica vs. Dave Mustaine
-Metallica against it's former lead singer Dave Mustaine
-Mustaine was kicked out of Metallica in 1983 for alcohol and drug abuse. This led Mustaine to form Megadeth. This then led to a bad reunion with Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich

Axl Rose vs. Nirvana
-At the 1992 MTV Video Music Awards, a fight began, starting with the drug addict girlfriend of Kurt Cobain, Courtney Love. According to Nirvana bassist Krist Novocelic, Axl Rose was going past Love, Kurt Cobain and the couple's baby daughter when the front woman for Hole, aka Courtney Love shouted "Axl, Axl, you're the godfather!" This led to Axl telling Cobain to keep his woman in line
