The Best Fake Bands of All Time

PAST 10s: A Top 10 Time Machine

Dave and Milt crank the amp to 11 and count down the greatest fake bands of all time. That's right—no chart-toppers, no world tours, no actual existence. Just the fictional bands that somehow managed to rock harder than most real ones. We open with a little School of Rock, because if Jack Black doesn't make your fake band list, you're doing life wrong. From there, it's a nostalgic jam session through cinematic and small-screen legends like The Commitments, The Blues Brothers, The Wonders, and—of course—the loudest band in England that's not actually from England: Spinal Tap. Along the way, we unpack listener mail (someone really had feelings about Dr. Teeth), share stories of interns who may or may not be trapped in a basement recording kazoo solos, and ask the big questions—like how many blues brothers is too many? And is Stillwater the best band that never opened for The Allman Brothers? You'll hear music clips, trivia drops, obscure references (you're welcome, Christopher Guest fans), and—brace yourselves—a tease for the new Spinal Tap movie. Yes, it's happening. No, we don't fully understand it either. So if you've ever air-guitared to That Thing You Do, quoted A Mighty Wind unprompted, or shouted "Shama-lama-ding-dong" in polite company… this one's for you. Timestamps (for those who prefer structure in their musical mayhem): 00:00 – Welcome to Past Tens: We're faking it today 01:25 – Listener mail: Love, hate, and one impassioned defense of Jem and the Holograms 03:38 – The countdown begins (cue dramatic VH1 voiceover) 10:25 – #10: School of Rock – Let's rock, let's rock… today 18:42 – #9: The Folksmen – Three-part harmony, one-part folk satire 25:06 – #8: Stillwater – It's all happening (and surprisingly soulful) 33:11 – #7: Dr. Teeth & the Electric Mayhem – Muppets who shred 38:26 – #6: Otis Day & the Knights – Oh yes, we do mind if you dance with our dates 45:19 – #5: The Commitments – Soul power straight outta Dublin 48:19 – Intern tales & unlicensed musical ambition 49:08 – The Commitments, part deux – We really liked this one 52:15 – Flight of the Conchords – New Zealand's 4th most popular parody folk duo 58:20 – The Wonders – That thing they did? Still slaps 01:06:59 – The Blues Brothers – Suited up and still cool 01:11:50 – Honorable mentions: yes, Jesse & the Rippers made the cut 01:26:13 – Spinal Tap – Stonehenge, baby.

The beloved Blues Brothers universe will come roaring back to life over the next few years with forays into television, film, live events, music and much more with the first IP offering being a brand new original Graphic Novel: THE BLUES BROTHERS: THE ESCAPE OF JOLIET JAKE. Written by Stella Aykroyd, Luke Pisano and James Werner with artist Felipe Sobriero, The Blues Brothers: The Escape of Joliet Jake is both a love letter and sequel to the original Blues Brothers film. With editorial oversight by Dan Aykroyd, the utmost care has been taken to ensure this new chapter is true to the classic skits, legendary film, and iconic albums. The result is a wild and entertaining ride for both the longtime fans, and those new to the world of Jake and Elwood Blues. This project was originally conceived with the architect of The Blues Brothers, Judy Belushi Pisano, who sadly passed away during this book's production.Luke Pisano shares "The Blues Brothers weren't just a SNL act or movie, they were real musicians, in awe of the legends who came before them. This book is a continuation of that labor of love. This book is dedicated to my mother, Judy Belushi Pisano - the widow of John Belushi and the fierce, loving steward of the Blues Brothers legacy for over 40 years. After John's passing, she didn't just preserve the story-she expanded it. With the team at Z2, and with the talents of Stella and James, we finally found the right partners to make that dream turn reality. I am proud-and humbled-to continue her work in expanding this world of fun, music, and mischievousness.""It makes complete sense to me that the new generation of Blues Brothers will begin in comic book form, where the possibilities for destroying police cars is infinite, physics have no bounds, and the potential for jam partners is off the charts." James Werner points out. "The Blues Brothers universe is full of music and absurdity. Jake and Elwood are FINALLY reuniting , and I am forever grateful that Luke and Stella have asked me to join the band."Stella Aykroyd adds "Elwood and Jake are precious to me, in fact, one of them is actually my Dad. I've helped him sharpie ELWOOD onto his knuckles before Blues Brothers shows with 'Brother Zee', I've walked behind him as he's made his way through a sea of fans dressed as Elwood and Jake all over the world and I've been his co-pilot on the road, where he's explained to me the proper way to T-bone a car. Now, with Elwood, and the one and only 'Sister Zee', Judy Belushi's blessing, Luke, James, and I take the wheel and swerve into the endless possibilities that Z2, Felipe Sobreiro, and the comic book world provide for Jake and Elwood. In many ways the antics we've seen from the Blues Brothers have always been perfectly suited for the comic strip; flying cars, supernatural nuns, dusting an entire apartment building worth of bricks off your shoulders, and now Felipe Sobreiro's illustrations bring them to life once again. Our development process was guided and inspired by the stories and real life occurrences from the lives of Judy, John, and Dan and their process of conception of the Blues Brothers and using it not only for easter eggs but for plot points. I am so excited to share this whole new story with all our music loving anarchists."Lastly, Z2 President, Josh Bernstein adds "The Blues Brothers are comedy, pop-culture and musical royalty. Z2 is proud to expand the creative universe built by Dan Akyroyd, John and Judy Belushi-Pisano and welcome new band members: Luke, Stella and James. When you mix their story with the art of Brazilian Blues Brother, Felipe Sobreiro, fans of all ages will be delighted with the epic return of Jake & Elwood Blues. (We apologize in advance to the fine men and women of the Chicago Police Department.)"THE BLUES BROTHERS: THE SCAPE OF JOLIET JAKE will be available for pre-order via Amazon, Barnes and Noble, as well as many other fine independent book, comic, and record stores.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

Check out their thoughts on this classic episode when Case sat down with Geoff Moonen and chatted about Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back!   Overview Episode dedicated to Kevin Smith's influence following his recent heart attack, underscoring the importance of his work in nerd culture. View Askewniverse detailed as an interconnected film universe that began with Mallrats and culminated in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. Jason Mewes faced significant personal challenges during filming, impacting production due to substance abuse issues. Film characterized as having a weak overall plot with awkward transitions, relying on 'and then' storytelling. Subplot regarding animal rights deemed problematic and outdated, particularly in post-9/11 context. Noted lack of diversity in casting and representation, with a predominantly white male ensemble. Humor criticized for not aging well, featuring outdated jokes and problematic themes reminiscent of early 2000s comedy. Suggested structural improvements include framing devices and varying visual styles to enrich storytelling. Interview with Sam introduced new perspectives while affirming original hosts' critiques of structural flaws in the film. Overall legacy reflects a blend of quotability and cultural relevance, highlighting Kevin Smith's early comedy style compared to current film pacing.   Notes Episode Context & Background (00:05 - 07:17) Another Pass at Another Pass podcast episode featuring hosts discussing a previous episode about Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. Episode prompted by Kevin Smith's recent heart attack, wanting to honor his work and influence on nerd culture. 49-minute brisk episode with good audio quality featuring Case Aiken and Jeff Moonan discussing Kevin Smith's filmography. Discussion positioned as 'most meta episodes' - an episode about an episode about a movie that references many other movies. Kevin Smith Universe Analysis (08:40 - 19:26) View Askewniverse explained as interconnected reality starting accidentally with Mallrats, tying together story elements from previous films. Movie served as intended conclusion to the View Askewniverse with Jay and Silent Bob as main characters after being minor characters in Clerks. Jason Mewes struggled with substance issues during filming, drinking heavily while trying to get off drugs, making production difficult. Film positioned as 'greatest disc two of some other movie ever made' - ultimate bonus feature content rather than standalone film. Film Structure & Content Issues (21:58 - 48:37) Movie suffers from awkward transitions and 'and then' storytelling rather than consequential plot progression. Light plot structure with random elements, particularly weak animal rights terrorist subplot that feels dated post-9/11. Racial and gender representation problems - almost exclusively white cast with limited female characters in meaningful roles. Film's humor hasn't aged well with numerous gay jokes, misogynistic elements, and dated comedy style reminiscent of Austin Powers era. Proposed Improvements (24:51 - 42:01) Restructure with framing device - open with Jay and Silent Bob at diner with Suzanne the orangutan, telling story in flashback. Jay as unreliable narrator would allow for cutting awkward transitions and explaining absurd elements as his perspective. Blues Brothers structure suggested - characters piss off everyone along the way, leading to massive chase sequence at climax. Different visual styles for Jay's version vs. Bob's version vs. reality to distinguish narrative perspectives. Kevin Smith's Evolution as Filmmaker (12:18 - 42:01) Smith writes about his current life experiences - Clerks while working retail, Mallrats about studio experience, Chasing Amy about creative ownership. Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back represents Smith dealing with internet trolls and fan expectations in nascent online era. Zack and Miri Make a Porno mentioned as better examination of filmmaking process, with Jason Mewes delivering strong performance. Smith's limitation as visual director acknowledged - focuses on dialogue and character interactions over cinematography. Cultural Context & Legacy (07:17 - 17:45) Film represents early 2000s comedy style with extended gags and slower pacing compared to modern rapid-fire editing. Miramax studio system comparison made to classic Hollywood, allowing for cross-pollination of actors and characters. Movie's quotability exceeds its actual quality as a complete film experience. Clerks cartoon praised as superior Kevin Smith work with only six episodes but high quality content. ️ Sam's Perspective (New Co-host) (58:03 - 01:02:25) Sam agrees with original hosts' assessment - movie is quotable and fun but structurally flawed. Acknowledges problematic elements while noting they're not mean-spirited but reflect era's comedy standards. Harold and Kumar comparison resonates - better execution of similar stoner road trip concept. Kevin Smith's wife's involvement in diamond thief subplot makes misogynistic elements slightly less problematic but still problematic.

When blues powerhouse Albert Castiglia crossed paths with Bill Murray, neither could have predicted the musical partnership that would follow. In this captivating conversation with Greg Koch, Castiglia pulls back the curtain on how a Hollywood legend became his unexpected bandmate through a series of serendipitous connections that began with Murray's brother John."If Bill Murray wants to play in your band, you let him in your band," Castiglia remarks with characteristic humor. But beneath the celebrity factor lies a genuine musical connection that has taken them from intimate clubs to prestigious venues like Red Rocks. Far from seeking the spotlight, Murray approaches their collaboration with refreshing humility, insisting on equal billing and content to play percussion while occasionally stepping forward for a song. The audience response has been electric, with fans sometimes appearing in Ghostbusters costumes, moved to tears by Murray's magnetic stage presence.Castiglia's own journey through the blues landscape reveals the persistence required to build a sustainable career. From his early influences (discovering blues through Clapton and Johnny Winter's productions with Muddy Waters) to navigating the catch-22 of needing both a record deal and booking agent simultaneously, he speaks candidly about industry challenges. After cycling through five agencies, finding the right representation finally allowed him to expand from 100 shows annually to between 150-200 performances a year.The conversation touches on deeper themes of artistic growth, with Castiglia recently incorporating Coltrane's "Afro Blue" into his setlists after being inspired by Derek Trucks. He also reflects on lifestyle changes that have sustained his longevity, embracing sobriety after COVID and taking up boxing and Kung Fu to maintain his energy for grueling tour schedules. "I do this for the memories," he explains, capturing the essence of why musicians endure the hardships of the road.Ready to experience a genuine conversation between two musicians who've weathered decades in the business?

In 1978, T Bear signed with RCA Records and released Red, Hot & Blue that featured Les Dudek, Billy Squier, and the Brecker Brothers. He has shared the stage with Richie Havens, Odetta, The Doobie Brothers and Jeff Beck. Domestic responsibilities and a struggle to regain his sobriety, which he did in 1983, forced him to put his music career on hold. He became instrumental in developing the Musicians Picnic, serving on its board of directors, which led to the creation of Musicians Assistance Program, now part of MusiCares Foundation. T Bear credits his late wife for encouraging his comeback.After a self-imposed hiatus from the music industry that lasted nearly three decades, T Bear, aka Richard T Bear, keyboardist, vocalist, songwriter, returns with a new album, Fresh Bear Tracks, released on Quarto Valley Records.

Co-opting a famous phrase from the 1980 John Belushi-Dan Aykroyd classic The Blues Brothers, Donald Trump posted a cryptic meme on Wednesday night declaring that he is “on a mission from God” which also features an alt-right symbol in the background. Showing the president walking down a dark city street, the image includes the caption “nothing can stop what is coming.” Guess what? Trump is actually 100% accurate but has no idea what God is actually using him for. That's the memo.“And now have I given all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant; and the beasts of the field have I given him also to serve him.” Jeremiah 27:6 (KJB)On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, Donald Trump the second time around bears little to no resemblance to first term Donald Trump, the differences are that striking. This Trump has a completely different spirit, and seems almost maniacally possessed to carry out ‘the mission' which he says is from God. I believe it is from God, in much the same way that King Nebuchadnezzar had a mission from God, to destroy and captive Israel and the Jews. Everyone that Trump has installed in his cabinet are all highly suspect, and none of them are telling the truth. Remember when Jeffrey Epstein died and we were told repeatedly that there was no video tape from that night in his cell? Well, Dan Bongino and Kash Patel say they have that evidence we were told didn't exist, and it will show Epstein committed suicide. Trump's team has given us no Epstein files, no drone swarm answers, no auditing of Fort Knox, no UFO files, almost none of what was promised. Why not? On this episode, we will show you what we believe is the actual mission God has tasked Donald Trump with doing, and you won't like it.
