2023 Fictitious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame -- Round 1

The Rats

Contest: 2023 Fictitious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame -- Round 1
From Velvet Goldmine, we have the Rats; who were basically the Stooges. With all due respect to the backing band, the star here was Curt Wild (Ewan McGregor) who was modeled after Iggy Pop. Wild was the lover of the main star of the film (who was modeled after David Bowie) and his on stage antics was certainly worth remembering. Had this gained a bigger audience, we think this would really be a dark horse candidate. Hey, this is Obi-Wan Kenobi after all.
TV Show/Movie Appeared: Velvet Goldmine (1998)
Actors: Ewan McGregor (Curt Wild, Lead Singer)
Alan Fordham (Bass Guitar)
Jono McGrath (Lead Guitar)
Perry Clayton (Drums)
Songs you may remember: T.V. Eye
Gimme Danger
Why you should vote:: McGregor was great here, and did not come off as a parody of Iggy Pop.
Why you should not vote:: Obi Wan was seen a lot more as...Obi Wan.
