FAKE PUNK BANDS: S/D

I wasn't really talking about "authenticity" as such, or about bands being "poseurs" or whatever, so bands like the Vibrators or those on Epitaph aren't what this thread is about.

In Dr C's list only types 2 and 4 would be what I'm looking for. I guess the Pork Dukes would be a good example of type 4?

How about:

5. They were essentially a comedy act creating a parody of punk(Alberto Y Lost Trios Paranoias).

Not sure whether The Pork Dukes belong under 2. or 4.

(x-post)

I guess my point is that I don't really recognize the term 'fake' here, except for category 2.

What about some of Ian Dury's more obv. punk numbers: "Plaistow Patricia", "Blockheads"

not punk, but i've just learned about this.
