Mine:
Aldous Snow and Infinite Sorrow (Forgetting Sarah Marshall)
The Honey Bees (Gilligan’s Island)
The Standell’s (The Munsters)
Serena (Bewitched)
There’s probably more but that’s all I can think of at the moment.
Dethklok.
Hotblack Desiato & Disaster Area
The Now-Tones
Stillwater (Almost Famous)
Are they really fictional since they have toured?
Not to mention they have at least three if not four albums.
VERY good albums I should say.
Who else but The Sacred Cows (Get Smart)?
Lancelot Link and the Evolution Revolution
BTW, the Standells were a real band, from Boston. Their big hit was “Dirty Water.”
There’s no reason we couldn’t make t-shirts or gig posters for these bands… or get someone more versed in screenprinting to do it for us.
Mine would be for Drimble Wedge and the Vegetation.
Peter Cook’s character in the original ‘Bedazzled’ ('67). Dudley Moore wishes himself into a flamboyant, wild rock star to
get the girl. Peter Cook outdoes him with weaponized ennui… “I don’t want you… You fill me with inertia.”
I don’t think the Standells were “fictional”.

[/QUOTE]Heee! How can I have never seen that episode!? That is great, including 99’s dancing.
Also, I did not know The Standell’s were a real band!
Also, also, Aldous Snow’s band is *Infant *Sorrow. No idea why I typed “infinite” :smack:
Fish Taco (My Name is Earl)
The Silver Platters (Brady Bunch)
I’d like to own T shirts for both the Rutles and Spinal Tap.
Ziggy Stardust & The Spiders From Mars
Any/all of Andy’sband names. (Park and Rec)
The Standell’s were from LA. None of the band members had ever visited Boston when they recorded “Dirty Water”.
Dingoes Ate My Baby - from “Buffy the Vampire Slayer”
Dazzler (from the Marvel comics character of the same name)
Buckaroo Banzai and the Hong Kong Cavaliers (from The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension)
The Nazgûl - from George R.R. Martin’s “Armageddon Rag”. Specifically, a t-shirt featuring the West Mesa NM concert poster.
When I was a teenager in Green Bay in the late 1970s, “Nazgûl” was, in fact, the name of a local jazz-fusion band (now long since defunct, I think). As far as I was able to figure out, they didn’t play any music inspired by Tolkien; they just liked the name.
