Not sure I remember what release it was, but at one point an easter egg was embedded into the GUI. The screen was a star wars style scrolling list of engineering team members with a backing track from Metallica. Why did we choose Metallica? God knows, but this was around the time Metallica was suing Napster and when the executive team got wind of it all hell broke loose...

Yep, that's the shirt.
this t-shirt, I think https://static.wixstatic.com/media/a27d24_b9178f1945c14e5d9ebef8507ad4f8f3~mv2.jpeg/v1/fill/w_1186,h_1326,al_c,q_85,enc_auto/a27d24_b9178f1945c14e5d9ebef8507ad4f8f3~mv2.jpeg
Haha, I definitely remember the scroll. I have no memory at all of it including Metallica. I remember a picture of one of the t-shirts in a different release.
I would just note that this site has 'em too
Very belated comment(s):
There were Easter eggs in the GUI in pretty much every release. I even stuck some in the doc library once or twice. Couldn't tell you where or how to find them anymore.
And, agreeing with Mark, if Metallica was in the GUI, there's a 99.999% chance it was Hilton.
I remember bringing that up during breaks in classes I taught.
If I had to guess, I’d say Hilton had something to do with the Metallica choice.
