Best recreated rock star?


They've done a good job with their rock star cameos throughout the season in my opinion. I can't think of all of them off hand, but I particularly enjoyed David Bowie. They did Alice Cooper, Bo Diddley, John Lennon, Lou Reed, Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, Robert Plant, John Bonham, Gram Parsons and of course Elvis.

New York Dolls watching off stage and the Ramones watching from the crowd during the season finale.

I don't need an army. I need 20 good men.

reply

I agree. The Dolls looked the most authentic to me.

Yup.
The (acting) "DOLLS" looked good!

Agreed. Yeah, the guy portraying Bo Diddley was good, as was Eddie Cochran and Buddy Holly.

The NY Dolls were great, that's one of the best scenes of the season. That guy looks a lot like David Johansen. Bo Diddley was spot on also.

Elvis and Alice Cooper.

Elvis and Alice Cooper.

cameo of the Ramones

David Bowie.

Now I have to rewatch, how did I miss the Ramones?

reply

Alice Cooper (spookily he still looks like that today just with more wrinkles and slightly greying hair)
David Bowie (which was a nice touch and they didn't portray him in a derogatory way)
Elvis
Lou Reed

reply

Alice Cooper was probably the best.
Looked and sounded the part.
The guy who played Plant... not so much...

reply

ELVIS BECAUSE THEY MADE HIM DUMB AS DIRT.

Ladies and gentlemen, here he is Mr. Warmth himself, the one, the only - Mr. Don Rickles!

reply

That's true. All the others they made smart but not him.

No! That's not true at all, Elvis takes 50% of everything I earn!
