The Others were a tuff '60s garage band. And Nirvana and The Charlatans, obviously...

yeah, but Nirvana aren't exactly 'going around' now...

Back a few years ago, there was a footballer called Jamie Scott, who used to be greeted on-field by the supporters singing "Jay...Mieee..SCOTT! dun der dun dun dun"

And now there is a new folkie/David Gray type young singer called Jamie Scott.

I hope everyone greets him on stage with "dun der dun dun dun"

Birds. then: the short-lived duo of Ronnie Wood and Kim Gardner, before both dudes went on to much bigger things. stuck together long enough to put out a bunch of 7"s (and to appear in The Deadly Bees whoo!) now: the duo of Cotton Casino & Per Gisle Galaen, often with Makoto Kawabata and/or Atsushi Tsuyama. also the group name used by Peter Ford, Kotai & Mo, and Jochem Bader.

According to allmusic.com, there are at least four bands that have called themselves "Jet", plus a rap act called "J.E.T."

I guess latter day Creed isn't around anymore, but back in the late 70's there was a band named Creed distributed on Asylum Records. They were pretty good, straight ahead r&r.
