There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Any others?

Warren Zane (brother of Dan Zane), used to be in the Del Fuegos and is now a Professor. (I think of English.) He wrote the 33 1/3 book on Dusty Springfield.

Franklin Bruno, indie rocker/professor.

Phil Alvin, lead singer of the Blasters, got his Ph.D. in mathematics.

All of the members of Queen, except Freddy, had advanced degrees in science, so add Roger Taylor and John Deacon.

Didn't Milo from the Descendents not only go to college but also get an advanced degree? (They had an album titled Milo Goes to College.)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yes, Milo is apparently a biochemist: [link]

I find it fascinating, having lived through two PhDs (one successful, mr. flea's, one not, mine) that anyone could combine such a thing with a rock band career. I mean, talk about varying talents!

I know!

Graeme Downes of the New Zealand band The Verlaines has a PhD in Musicology, which is a little bit more understandable.

There aren't a lot of doctor rockers. Whereas there used to be a long tradition of doctor/poets.
