Suburban Funk
It is hard to imagine DJ Qualls playing anything remotely tough, but that is what he did in the “New Guy” where he went from a zero to a hero and reinvented himself as a tough guy from the wrong side of the tracks. Before Qualls (whose character name was Dizzy, became Gil Harris) he was part of a Funk band, who made an appearance at the end of the film joining the former Dizzy. The film did well, though the fact that they were in a Funk band (that only did covers) was not really relevant other than (we think) a plot device to get the Zooey Deschanel more scenes.

Why you should vote for them:
They weren’t that bad.
Why you should not vote for them:
Playing covers and not exactly being relevant to the plot doesn’t help the cause.
