Just for fun, who is the best fictional band? Please give a vote and share your vote and reason.

The choices:

The School of Rock (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04hps_oetQ8)

Wyld Stallyns (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1cEdqWZi13I)

Dingos Ate My Baby (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nbm4SVwes9Q)

Drive (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kuQba4inleQ) Shaft (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wr4oAUM9anI)

Sonic Death Monkey/Barry Jive and the Uptown Five (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L2m1iSwbMp8)

Spinal Tap (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qDgCmzh5ao)

The Wonders (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPMLG8mnCRM)

Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D43clDUzU6A)

The Blues Brothers (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EHV0zs0kVGg)




This really, really is tough, but I'm going with Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem. They're amazing, simply put. Admit it, if you had to hire a band for a party, The Electric Mayhem are first, Parliament second, everyone else third or worse.

My second place would be The Wonders (they actually all could play and it was a "real" fictional band; they played shows!). Third would be The School of Rock.

I picked "other" for The Rutles, a Monty Python invention well known for their Beatles parodies. Don't know how you forgot them , spaz.

How about Foreskin. :rockband:

I just made that one up.

Can't get more fictional than that.

The manager behind that band is a real p***k. :)

The Blues Brothers were also a real band, with several different line-ups after Belushi passed.

And they were on a mission for God. How could that be fictional. :dunno:

My "other" vote goes to "NO" - the band Peter Banks wanted to start.
