more alsoer, while billed as JV and the NS, Jonny actually performs solo right?

Yeah. That name comes with a conceptual Performance Art idea behind it.

The curtain opens and the spotlights hit the stage which is rigged with a full band set-up;Mikes, guitars. bass, etc. The lone human on the stage is Jonny who is passed out, slumped against an amp, surrounded by empty bottles and with puke streaming down his chest into his lap. Things continue this way until Jonny wakes up and shouts obcenely at the audience. The curtain closes and the show is over.
This would be a huge hit with the big city artsy-fartsy boho crowd, but not so much with real people. The soundtrack CD would be a hard sell also, since it would be about 70 minutes of silence followed by a drunken shout of something like, "Who the hell are you people? Get the fuck outta my house!"
Like I said, not for real people.

Oh yeah. Since no one else seems willing to venture there, I'll offer:

Billy G and the Cyberpunks.

Someone had to say it.

Oddly enough, given my supposed diet, exploding heads have never influenced anything I've posted. Doesn't mean I don't enjoy a good pop now and then though.

And Lithos: "Yo Yo Taco" is not original, it's a Veronica Mars in-joke (hence the exclamation mark). Wallace had trouble remembering YO LA TENGO...
