A little Abbott and Costello, perhaps?
-What's the name of this band? -Yes. -What is? -Yes. -Why would a band call themselves "What?" -What? -That's right. Why? -Why what? -Exactly. -You've lost me. -I asked you what's the name of the band and you said...? -Yes. -So "What"'s the name of the band? -Yes. -So I want to know why a band would call themselves "What." -No, no you've got it confused. The band isn't called "What?" -What are they called then? -Yes! -Yes what? -Just Yes. -Look, if you've got a band, the band's gotta have a name, doesn't it? -Yes. -You need a name so people can buy your records and know where you're playing, right? -Right. -So what is it? -Yes. -But you told me it wasn't "What." -It isn't. -What is it then? -Yes! -Look, I'm getting tired of this. Are you gonna tell me the name of the band? -Yes. -Go on then. -Yes. -So tell me already! -I just told you! -What did you just tell me? -The name of the band! -You did? -Yes. -And the name of the band is...? -Yes! -Ah, forget it!

If anyone can find the Credibility Gap's 1970s version of "Who's On First" - in which a concert promoter tries to book a show headlined by the Who, the Guess Who and Yes - it would be much appreciated.

I swear I came up with a very similar "Who's on First" kind of skit, but it involved a festival where Yes, The Who, and The Band were playing.
