I really like the Amazon Prime TV show “Daisy Jones & The Six,” and I like the music made by the fictional band even more. I’m not alone — apparently the songs from their fake album are doing quite well on the charts at the moment.
If the band actually did go on tour, it would not be the first time that a fake band did real gigs — The Monkeys being a prime example of this tradition in rock n roll. But from what I can tell, I have a feeling the actors involved in the show aren’t exactly thrilled to go on tour, despite their music’s success.
This is pure speculation on my part, but I think they might be a little nervous that they’ve created a monster and their collective acting careers might be consumed by having to sate the public’s demand to see their fictional selves on stage.
Or something. Who knows.
