How sad. How very, very sad:

And the reason I referred to the band as semi-fictional is that they were created for the show and never played any gigs, but are actually real people who recorded real songs to be used in the show.

and we don't have nickelodeon...

You missed out on what was seriously one of the most creative "kids" shows of the '90s. Watch a full episode here:

Seasons 1 and 2 came out on DVD but then Nickelodeon put the halt on the 3rd and final season, so no one knows if/when it will ever come out.

what were we talking about?

oh yeah, polaris.

That was name of the semi-fictional band who recorded all the music for The Adventures Of Pete & Pete. True story.

I completely forgot about that fact and show.

i would've never known. was that iggy pop on that show??

Iggy Pop was indeed on that show. He was Nona Mecklenberg's dad. Michael Stipe from R.E.M. made a guest appearance in one episode as an ice cream salesman, and Luscious Jackson actually performed in another. Most episodes had background music from the Magnetic Fields, too. I'm pretty sure Pete & Pete got me into indie rock without me even knowing it.
