Lame Band Night
One night in the SciFi days of Caption This!, it became a running gag to try to jam in as many references to lame, one hit wonder bands as one could to as many captions as one could. The more obscure lame band you could think of, the better, and it didn't hurt if you could reference the lame band's one hit as well. Years later, the lame band caps were compiled by Amon and dubbed 'Lame Band Night' at his caption gallery. Although the majority of the lame band caps occurred that one night, they still lingered around as a running gag afterwards.
Here is a sample of some of the lame bands we mocked: Johnny Hates Jazz, T'Pau, Livin' In A Box, Escape Club, Timbuk3, Mister Mister, Cutting Crew, Animotion, Mr. Big, Scritti Politti, Men Without Hats, Musical Youth, Dexy's Midnight Runners, The Motels, Scandal, Quarterflash, The Hooters, The Outfield, Billy Vera & The Beaters, John Cafferty & The Beaver Brown Band... notice the bevy of material to work with?
