On Fri. 1/10/03 I saw Late Night with Conan O'Brien on Comedy Central
(so I assume this was a re-run originally airing on NBC on 1/09). 
There was a band called The Naked Truckers with...(can't remember the
guy's name) at the end of the show.  They performed a comedy song
about the lead singer recalling his life's events without his "daddy"
-- (whom his mother claims was an astronaut). I believe this is an
actual group and not just a skit from the show.  Need to know if
there's a CD or fansite or any info available on this band.  Thanks!

Hi mp7-ga,

Thanks for your question.

According to the message board linked off Comedy Central’s page for
Late Night with Conan O’Brien, the group in question is called “T-Bone
and the Naked Trucker.” T-Bone is played by David Koechner and the
Naked Trucker by Dave “Gruber” Allen.

An article on the group can be found here:

Although it is a comedy group, they do have a web presence. Their
website is called, appropriately enough, The Naked Trucker Show. A
calendar of their appearances, articles, and pictures can be found
here.

Koechner has a number of acting credits to his name, mostly small
roles as does Dave “Gruber” Allen.

From my research, it doesn’t look like they have a CD out as yet
although it’s possible they may in future.
