I second Sex Bob-Omb. And BatP is a close second.

Not sure if The Lonely Island is considered a band or comedy troupe, but their songs are funny.
Spinal Tap held the record the longest.

I consider Lonely Island, Spinal Tap, and BatP all full-fledged "real" bands, even if the first two are primarily purveyors of parody.

I agree with Den and Rone. That show was quite enjoyable.
