come and gone through its ranks since frontman David “Oderus Urungus” Brockie founded the group in 1984, but when he passed away in 2014, the band chose to continue, in part because the costumes ensured that no one knew who was onstage anyway. The band will start its next U.S. tour in June.
Iron Butterfly - Iron Butterfly was founded in the 1960s and is best known for the interminable “In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida,” which lasts for 17 minutes, almost enough time for your last toke of the sticky icky to wear off. Everyone in the original band has died, except for singer Doug Ingle, but you would be wrong if you’d expect him to come back for the touring income. Every current band member was drafted in the 2000s, except for singer Eric Barnett, who joined in 1991.
Canned Heat - Canned Heat is a blues rock band formed in 1965 that performed at Woodstock and is best known for the song “Going Up the Country.” Founding members Alan Wilson and Bob Hite both passed away decades ago and currently, the only member of the band who dates back to its olden days is drummer Fito De La Parra, who was not an original member but joined the group for its second album. This incarnation of the band will be touring Europe over the summer and then playing in Las Vegas, so buy your concert tickets and brown acid now.
