The show was in a slump at the time, so Rocket's indiscretion may only have been the straw that broke the camel's back.Rocket was not the only SNL performer to say fuck on-the-air. Other performers include Paul Shaffer in the late 1970's and Norm MacDonald in 1997. "Something got caught in my throat," says MacDonald in the book Live humourous From New York: humourous An Uncensored History of Saturday Night Live, "and I went, 'What the fuck was that?' If I hadn't brought attention humourous to it, I don't think anybody would have even heard it. I pointed it out, because I couldn't believe I said it."More recently, popular funk metal band System of a Down said the word while performing their song 'B.Y.O.B.' on SNL on Saturday, May 7, 2005. Near the end of their song, which had been heavily censored, guitarist Daron Malakian yelled "fuck yeah!"
