  Boy band (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.tamu.edu)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-09)
A boy band (American English) or boyband (British English) is a style of somewhat to mostly prefabricated pop group featuring between three and six young male singer/dancers, but normally five.
The Temptations, popular in the 1960s, may be considered a Boy band, while The Monkees certainly were prefabricated, and Latin Boy band Menudo was founded in 1977.
Some critics compare Boy band output to the "machine-generated" popular music popular in George Orwells novel, Nineteen Eighty-Four, noting that much of their music (as well as the bands compositions) is extremely formulaic.

Dr Joann Fletcher of the University of York in England and leader of the expedition, said her team may have unearthed Nefertiti from a secret chamber in tomb KV35 in Egypt's Valley of the Kings in Luxor.
Fletcher was drawn to the tomb again during an expedition in June 2002 after she identified a Nubian-style wig worn by royal women during Akhenaten's reign.

Prior to ATL, Austin served as executive producer and executive music producer on 2002’s Drumline, which was based on his own experiences in his native Atlanta and explored the rich tradition of marching bands on traditionally fl Southern campuses.

Music for ATL was coordinated by Austin, who views movies as a cultural extension of much of the music he’s produced while being based in Atlanta.

Fallout Boy tore through killer songs from Take This to Your Grave like “Dead on Arrival,” “Chicago is so Two Years Ago,” “Grand Theft Autumn/Where Is Your Boy” and “Saturday.” The most surprising thing about Fallout Boy’s performance was the hardcore screams from Wentz.

 Making the Band 3 | PopMatters Television Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-09)
The third season found legs by exploiting Da Band's interpersonal and personality defects, primarily the erratic behavior brought on by the illusion of their success.
His ego seemed in a confused and desperate flux, famously ordering his band to pick up and deliver a slice of Junior's cheesecake to prove their loyalty to him.
By season three, Da Band was all Bad Boy had, and Diddy played sitcom father to his gaggle of inconsiderate brats, fond of speechifying and delivering firm but fair discipline.

For all the guys who auditioned, and perhaps particularly for the eight who remain in the running, being in a boy band is the fulfillment of all their dreams.
In a telling scene in the third episode, the boys are late to a vocal practice because they've been goofing off and staying up too late.
In a moment of anger, their vocal coach lets loose a bald-faced truth that is rarely mentioned: that all these guys are replaceable, that if they aren't willing to put in the work, then someone else is, and that the final product won't be any worse for it.
