POND POLL 2: BEST FAKE BAND(S)

Monday night on CBC's The Hour, they had a list of the 'top 5 fake bands'. These included the Blues Brothers, Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem, the Partridge Family, and two others I'd never even heard of. Obviously there are several glaring omissions, the most puzzling one being Spinal Tap since Harry Shearer was a guest earlier in the hour!

So I began compiling a list of glaring omissions...I ended up with dozens. I narrowed the choices down to 20 and created a new Pond Poll. (I had to use a new poll host, since the old one, Freepolls, flagged "Josie and the Pussycats" as inappropriate language. Freepolls sucks. Oh, and thanks again, Janet Jackson, you dumb cunt.)

I'll tell you my rankings later. For now, here's the new Pond Poll. Have fun!

(BTW, you can vote for as many as you want)

ERNIE KOVACS' "NAIROBI TRIO"

Happy Mother's Day! To celebrate I am reposting the Nairobi Trio clip as it was one of my mom's favorites.



See, THIS is the sort of thing the internet was meant for: preserving classics like these for all to be able to access and enjoy. YouTube RULES!
