Yes, that's right the Rutles first burst upon the music scene 30 years ago with the airing of the classic mockumentary "All You Need is Cash". The members of the Pre-Fab Four---Ron Nasty, Dirk McQuickly, Barry Wom and Stig O'Hara---made a massive impact upon the parody music and mockumentary realms due to their quick wits, adorable music and their trousers. And they still have legions of loyal, rabid fans called "Rutlemaniacs". In 2002, another film was produced "The Rutles 2: Can't Buy Me Lunch". The masterminds behind Rutlemania are two very funny and talented human beings, Eric Idle and Neil Innes. Both films feature hilarious cameos from comedy heavyweights with SNL pedigrees. www.rutles.org
