The Bloodhound Gang

-- although They Might be Giants probably runs a close second.

And there's Weird Al.

Ohmigod, yes, Weird Al.

Unless that's more "geek" than nerd, and unless you want a full band instead of a singer, I'd say Weird Al hands down.

I know of a couple of die-hard Creed fans.....





And yes, loser applies.

Not a band, but a singer... I think Elvis Costello would be up there.

ummmm.....HELL NO. Just cause he dresses on the geeky side, definitely doesn't mean he is a geek.

LOL Bloodhound Gang. The guy I dated last winter was nuts about them.

And as for Rush, all I can say is I went to see them with ex-Mr 33 and his best friend, and there were like 4 guys for every girl there. Then again, this may be another case of "the odds are good, but the goods are odd."

I'd have to say Frank Zappa.

Along with TMBG and Weird Al, he's the only other music that is universally accepted by my (very nerdy) group of friends.

Co-Sign....

And also the soundtracks to video games...

You people obviously never roomed with a total nerd in college.

Nerds like Rush. The worst band ever!

Pink Floyd

Pink Floyd has a rather large nerd base. I attended a concert in Tampa, about 15 years ago, where everyone remained seated.

Pink Floyd's shows are more theatrical. I couldn't imagine standing and doing whatever at a concert like that.
