How about Tim Curry in the previously mentioned Rocky Horror??

In Ahnold's Running Man you get both Mick Fleetwood and Dweezil Zappa...

Didn't know Tim Curry sang. Well, apart from the songs in the RHPS.

That's like saying 'if you accept a piece of toast as being hot bread'. Meat Loaf is music, man. My vote is always with him.

Dwight Yokam was fantastic in SlingBlade.
(I'm not mentioning Billy Bob, his music is lame,
well I'm not sure I enjoy Mr.Yokam's tunes either but...)

What about Dancer in the Dark? I thought Bjork was very good.

"It's Pat" with Dean and Gene Ween, even though they're playing themselves.

The first movie that came to mind when I saw the title of this thread was Down By Law, and I can see I wasn't the only one who had that happen. I actually liked 8 Mile, I thought Eminem was great in that. I also think that Ice Cube's performance in Boyz In the Hood is excellent.

Signature's are kind of like bumper stickers, only less sticky.

I clearly said "if you accept". He is the Man. Mmmm... I've already given this award...

Also check out Jim Jarmusch's new film 'coffee and cigarettes.' It features a vignette with Tom Waits and Iggy Pop struggling to conduct a coherent conversation - Priceless! This definitely gets my vote.

Gene Simmons in that Tom Selleck movie with the robot insects. I'm sure that piece of info is occupying a part of my brain that could have something worthwhile in it.

Moving from the clown to the jester will mean moving from similar to same, from alike to identical, from comparable to analogous. Though applied differently, the colours used on one can be used on another, and a couple of changes of costume will rapidly transform the jester into a clown and the clown into a jester. Strictly speaking, they almost duplicate each other as regards clothes and function, the only difference between them, from a social point of view, is that clowns do not usually visit the palaces of kings.

It's gotta be a Tom Waits movie, and I'm going to say it's pretty close between Short Cuts and Down by Law.

Speaking of Down by Law-- what about John Lurie? He's a musician. He was also great in Stranger Than Paradise.

No no no. Tom Waits' best movie is Mystery Men.

Yeah, I agree on that. I found the episode with the White Stripes a bit disappointing, though.

Jason Schwarzman from Phantom Planet.

I guess you could say Donnie Darko, too, since the lead singer of Phantom Planet is in that.

Blue in the Face (w/ Lou Reed) - he tells some very nice stories in it. But then Maddona made an awful appearance.

But does this work conversly? Johnny Depp or Russell Crow would surely get the votes. Gallagher was complementing Depp as being a very good guitar player and he actually contributed to the soundtrack of Chocolat.

Is Sean Penn in a band? He really impressed me as that jazz guitarist in Woody Allen's Sweet and Lowdown.
