Fifteen Best...Fake Bands

As you'll soon notice, bands like Spinal Tap and Tenacious D aren't on this list. That's because they went on to perform, and became a real fake band. I only choose acts that haven't actually existed and, sadly, never will.

#15. The Shmenge Brothers from SCTV



#14. My Pretty Pony from Veronica Mars



#13. The Riverbottom Nightmare Band from Emmet Otter's Jug-Band Christmas



#12. Dingoes Ate My Baby from Buffy the Vampire Slayer



#11. Brick Springhorn and the Tenth Avenue Band from a random Transformers comic



#10. Stillwater from Almost Famous



#9. Sonic Death Monkey from High Fidelity (Also known as Barry Jive and the Uptown Five or Kathleen Turner Overdrive.)



#8. Drive Shaft from Lost



#7. Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem from The Muppet Show



#6. Timmy and the Lords of the Underworld/Faith Plus One/Fingerbang from South Park



#5. The Rutles from All You Need is Cash



#4. The Beets from Doug



#3. Dregs of Humanity from It's Your Move



#2. Dr. Funke's 100% Natural Good-Time Family Band Solution from Arrested Development (I couldn't get a picture of the "band," so instead here's one of Tobias' résumé)



#1. The Wonders (or the Oneders) from That Thing You Do! (Captain Geech and the Shrimp Shack Shooters, as well)



Honorable Mention: The Dangles from Rocko's Modern Life, who, of course, are a band that plays at a nudist colony. Why that show was never more popular, I have no idea.
