Now that I read through the thread, I see that many posts are endorsing some pretty crappy "actors". Here are a few more:





Glen Campbell in True Grit.





Ricky Nelson in Rio Bravo.





Gene Simmons, Ace Frehley, Paul Stanley and Peter Criss in Kiss Meets the Phantom.





The Beatles in Yellow Submarine.





Peter Frampton in Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.





Stevie Wonder in Bikini Beach.





Olivia Newton John in Xanadu.





ad nauseum...

And some of these "Musicians" are in garage bands, too.

The lines get a little fuzzy for some of them, as, for example, Jamie Foxx and Russell Crowe are successful musicians who are more famous as actors.  That I haven't seen mentioned yet: Courtney Love was good in The People vs Larry Flint.  Puff Daddy was pretty damn funny in Get Him to the Greek.  Many people probably know Kris Kristofferson and Jerry Reed more for movies than music.

Puh-leaze! Love was playing a strung out drug addict but wait, she had been a strung out drug addict IRL, so it was more like being herself. How hard could that be? Wasn't much of a fucking stretch for her sorry ass.

He's definitely a very accomplished banjo player.

It was great when Letterman asked him,"So, do you play anything else?"

Martin was obviously pissed and asked, "If you had Yo Yo Ma on your show, would you ask him,"So, Mr. Ma. Do you play anything besides the cello?"

He played himself.  That isn't acting.

Otherwise we'd have to consider Willie Nelson at the end of Beerfest, and I couldn't do a /thread with a clear conscience.
