I really enjoyed [PoP!](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jeCT6YIlhg) from _Music and Lyrics_.

They also appeared on _The Patty Duke Show_ as “Nigel and Patrick.”

The [real thing](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J552DdJBeJQ) is [much](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mgtebb0FcL8) [better](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O8o7wKv47bI&feature=related).

I shoot video of the Kansas City School of Rock, and the most average kids in that are better than the kids in the Hollywood cash-in. And the real story is [a much more entertaining film](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0436727/).

I wonder whatever happened to the O’Needers?
