The Blue Man Group does that now too! I went to see them in Las Vegas one time and they were EXCELLENT! Then I found out that their success meant that the original 3 had grown to over 20 and they wear the masks so you can't tell who is actually where.

No Faking In Florida: Bogus Rock Bands Outlawed

Bands Must Have At Least One Original Member To Use Name

Nostalgia Craze Led To Fake Groups, Angry Fans

Gov. Charlie Crist signed legislation Friday that makes it a misdemeanor for people to take the stage using the name of a band if they're not really the band who made the name famous, making it illegal in Florida to fake your way to fame by using another band's name.

Yeah but just saying they are the original guys without actually being the 'real original' guys could get them in trouble. Maybe they will all have to be on stage with the 'real original' group at some point to qualify.

No but the impetus was the group 'The Platters', the group being advertised as 'The Platters' had no one who had been in the original group nor were they ever associated with the group, but they play the groups original songs. They also demanded and got tons of money based on the groups name. Lots of people got mad when they showed up and they were just a bunch of people playing music from an old time group! It would be like you or I showing up, assuming either of us could play and sing because I certainly can't, and calling ourselves 'The Beatles' and playing Beatles songs, or the Monkeys and playing their songs. I know lots of groups play other groups songs, but they don't go around calling themselves the original group. The only difference in my examples and what 'The Platters' were doing, is that all the ORIGINAL Platters are now dead! So maybe Roy Rogers would be more appropriate? How about Hank Williams? Or ELVIS?!!
