Dan Band: You Oughta Know

Posted: August 19th, 2009 | Author: Drunkist | Filed under: Videos | Tags: , , | 1 Comment »

Remember the wedding band from Old School? The one that sang a profanity-laced version of Total Eclipse of the Heart? They’re an honest-to-goodness act called The Dan Band, and they’ve showed up in a few movies since then (pretty sure they were featured in the Hangover recently too). They’re not only a movie band, though – back on 06 (that’s ought six to you youngsters) they did a cover of Alanis Morisette’s classic hate song to Dave Coulier for a Dan Band special. And they fucking nailed it!

Science Fair: Homemade Phantom Zone

An oldie but a goodie from a Something Awful photoshop phriday called “A Day at the Science Fair.” Other notable projects include “Birds: They’re Fucking Everywhere” and “The Wonders of Cocaine.” There are hits and misses, but it’s definitely worth going back to this well.

Ladies and Gentlemens, Patrick Muthafuggin Duffy. Did you hear me? This is the greatest Duffy-related piece of film to hit the…filmwaves…since Knot’s Landing, or whatever TV show he used to be on before Step by Step.

Hurra Torpedo: Total Eclipse of the Heart

This video is a go-to for me whenever I want to watch Norwegians in track suits play cover songs using appliances for instruments.  Happens more often than you think, actually.

If that one’s not enough, check it out when they play the same song at little Jennifer’s birthday party. Lucky little bitch.

“Nobody loves you, like your mama loves you. But who’s loving your mama? I am.” A classic of its form.
