Ok, clue time.

The people in question are not professional musicians.  In other words, 
they're not folks who would have experienced the acoustical degradation 
from onstage.

Milli Vanilli?  ;)

Who are Dolby Laboratories?

The people in question are only associated with each other by virtue of a 
common profession, but were not employed by the same company.

Who are the local music critics?

Who are the Sopranos?

Scott has it.  (Did the last clue give it away?)
scott
response 559 of 644: Mark Unseen   Jan 9 22:41 UTC 2001

I'd vaguely heard the story before, but the clue helped.


Umm......

uhhh......

OK, an easy one:

This the failure of this Who project resulted in a nervous breakdown for Pete
Townshend.

quadrophenia what it is?
scott
response 561 of 644: Mark Unseen   Jan 10 12:29 UTC 2001

Nope, not Quadrophenia.  What the heck are you smoking?  That's one of their
best albums and it was a movie as well.

What is that _Lighthouse_ thing that Scott's been babbling about lately? :)
brighn
response 563 of 644: Mark Unseen   Jan 10 20:06 UTC 2001

Actually, it's called Lifehouse.
But I say give it to Ori, since I only know that from scamming it off CDNow's
biography. ;}

response 564 of 644: Mark Unseen   Jan 10 21:01 UTC 2001

Orinoco is close enough.  "Lifehouse" is correct.  I figured somebody would
put the rather obvious pieces together.

response 565 of 644: Mark Unseen   Jan 11 18:05 UTC 2001

That's all right, I only know my bit from scamming it off Scott's recent
conversation.... :)

Ah well.  I'll have an answer later this evening for y'all.

yeah, but yours indicates you're paying attention. Mine just indicates I'm
showing off.

response 567 of 644: Mark Unseen   Jan 12 20:18 UTC 2001

Um, this one's a little hard to phrase as an answer, but here goes....

This band is only one degree of separation away from both Jessica Rabbit and
Marilyn Manson.
raven
response 568 of 644: Mark Unseen   Jan 26 20:11 UTC 2001

Who is Jessica Rabbit?
orinoco
response 569 of 644: Mark Unseen   Jan 28 00:34 UTC 2001

As in, the female lead in Who Framed Roger Rabbit.

Hint:  The band in question has collaborated with Marilyn Manson, and has
recorded a version of Ms Rabbit's signature song.

Nine Inch Nails?

response 571 of 644: Mark Unseen   Jan 28 23:12 UTC 2001

Who is Rasputina?
(The song being "Why Don't You do Right?")

Thank you Paul!
(although I would _love_ to hear the esteemed Mr. Reznor do the same song...)

There's a NIN link there, too, not surprisingly: Chris Vrenna did drums on
their second full-length album.

Why do I always come across interesting factoids when it's not my turn to ask,
and forget them when it is? Bother. I had a really cool one, but I've
forgotten it. 

Anyway... here's a complex 80s cult question:
The group mentioned in Camper van Beethoven's "Where the Hell is Bill?" play
a lounge act in a cult classic movie executive produced by this son of an
office supplies magnate.

(Name the son, and for full credit, name the lounge act and the movie.)

  Wild guess:  

     lounge act -- Circle Jerks
     director   -- Alex Cox
     cult movie -- Repo Man
