3. Tenacious D
• Tenacious D are a combination of a live
show/story and a band. They made a film
titled “Tenacious D in the Pick of Destiny”.
Which was possibly one of the worst films I’ve
ever seen. But equally one of the funniest,
because, “it’s so bad it’s good!” With scenes
like this…

• Yes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_lK4cX5xGiQ&ob=av2e
5. Hypereality
• They use this in their live shows. As people believe that they
are seeing the band performing live. Yet on a great deal of
their songs they are in fact miming.
