Bands with dancers (or other non-musicians) as members
I just got back from seeing the Mighty Mighty Bosstones and saw their dancer Ben Carr do his thing. He was constantly moving. I swear, if I had to do that night after night I'd probably collapse.
But it got me to thinking about bands that have dancers and other non-musicians as official members. Here are the ones that I came up with:
With a dancer:
The Mighty Mighty Bosstones
The Prodigy
Happy Mondays
With "other":
Arrested Development (had that old guy)
Public Enemy (clear the way for the S1Ws)
A Tribe Called Quest (Jarobi - not sure what he did)
Can anybody think of any others?

Yeah, that old guy in arrested development had quite a job. Just shuffle around, wave your arms a little, and wear a dress.
Wonder how much they paid him.

How about Dee-Lite?
I know that the chick who looked like Peg Bundy sang, but did the Russian looking guy and the goofy-looking Japanese guy do anything?

Slymenstra.
And Sleazy P. Martini, their manager [he has one song, and one spoken-word, in addition to usually hosting/MC'ing the shows.]
And the Sexecutioner, though he does have two songs from six albums, IIRC. Plus all the slaves and victims....Man, I need to go to a GWAR show ; )
