Steel Dragon

Jason Bonham (son of Led Zeppelin's John Bonham) was one of the real musicians who helped make the fake hair band Steel Dragon seem like the real deal in the 2001 movie "Rock Star" (Bonham plays the drummer, far right). Mark Wahlberg (center), of course, stars at Dragon's fan-turned-lead-singer Chris Cole.
