Another entry we admit we had no real business putting on the ballot, Burned Beyond Recognition was never seen, nor heard but were the focus of a Married With Children episode where the two sibling Bud and Kelly waited in line to purchase tickets for. We know this about the group; that they were a Heavy Metal band who urinate on their audience members.
As true with this show, the Bundy children fail to get a ticket (the person in front of them got the last one) and their parents (Al & Peg) go to the concert after winning them from the Rick Dees Radio show.
The Bullet Points: TV Show Appeared: Married with Children (1994)
Actors: None
Songs you might remember: None
Why you should vote for them: Is urinating on the crowd a reason?
Why you should not vote for them: You never did see them….or hear them!
A somewhat bizarre creation from the Sid and Marty Kroft (though weren’t they all?), the Bugaloos were a seventeen episode series that featured a musical group who lived in “Tranquility Forest”. They wore insect themed outfits and had the ability to fly, which means….well, we have no idea. Either way, this was hot for a brief moment, which is enough to get them on our ballot.
The Bullet Points: TV Show Appeared: The Bugaloos (1970-72)
Actors: Wayne Laryea (Harmony, a Bumblebee) John Philpott (Courage, a Ladybug) Caroline Ellis (Joy, a Butterfly) John McIndoe (I.Q., a Grasshopper)
Songs you might remember: If you become a Bugaloo
Why you should vote for them: Only, if you were a devotee of the show.
Why you should not vote for them: This was a very strange show.
Seriously, this was drive in camp at its best. In “Wild Guitar” we had Bud Eagle who arrived in Hollywood with his pompadour, a guitar and attitude, looking for a break in the music industry. With illogical plots and cheesy dialogue, that is what happens, but sometimes a film is so corny you can’t help but watch, and that is what we have here.
The Bullet Points: Movie Appeared: Wild Guitar (1962)
Actor: Arch Hall Jr.
Songs you might remember: Vickie
Why you should vote for him: This is B-Movie best.
Why you should not vote for him: B-Movie best may not be what is worth looking for here.
A film that crossed multiple genres, Buckaroo Banzai (as it is commonly known) featured a hero who was the ultimate Renaissance man. Of his many skills, “Rock Star” was one, and his multi-talented associates were his backup band. Music was part of the film, but that was not necessarily what was remembered the most in this quirky cult film.
The Bullet Points: Movies Appeared: The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension (1984)
Actors: Peter Weller (Buckaroo Banzai) Clancy Brown (Rawhide) Pepe Serna (Reno Nevada) Lewis Smith (Perfect Tommy) Jeff Goldblum (Dr. Sidney Zweibel) Billy Vera (Pinky Carruthers)
Songs you might remember: Since I Don’t Have You
Why you should vote for them: This cult film does have its share of fans.
Why you should not vote for them: The film was memorable, but is the music amongst the first things you think about?
