Buckaroo Banzai's (Peter Weller) rock band from the cult, 1984, comic-booky, over-the-top movie The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the Eighth Dimension. Brain surgeon, rocket scientist, rock musician- a true renaissance man! The rest o' the band is guitarist Perfect Tommy (Lewis Smith), saxophonist Reno Nevada (Pepe Serna), drummer Pecos, keyboardist New Jersey (Jeff Goldblum) and guitarist Pinky Carruthers (Billy Vera of real band Billy Vera and the Beaters). The DVD re-release of the movie gave the band a full discography as a bonus feature: Native Texan (But a Rising Son), Your Place or Mayan?, Echo Location, Progress Over Protocol, and Live at Artie's Artery.
