assuming Spinal Tap doesn't count
what was Justine Bateman's band called in Smithereens?
oh, and the Misfits from the Jem cartoon.
and the band from Trick or Treat. Or was that a solo act? It was a solo act. Man that movie was funny.

The Shunned were a fictional band in my city during late seventies punk days. Posters use to appear for their shows that were to be at vague local locations (ex. - "at the Shoe Store"). Many locals believed them to be real for a while, and were intrigued. They even had fictional members (Dick Chocolate, Jet Yellow, Doomy Number).

My favouritey band is of course one which I made up- with my cranium!!!!! In the naughty nineties!!!! The beat combo's nomenclature was Vigilante Shipbuilders, and they were as Seventies type might sat, a power trio supergroup: of Missy Elliot (Lead vocals, beats, production), Danny MacNamara from Embrace (Vocals, guitars, and friend of Paul Weller- very important in the 90's!!!!!!), and Danbert Nobacon (Vocals, Political Strategist) fromChumbawumba!!!!!!!
If they existed, they would have packed out stadiums!!!!!!
