Shag Carpeting in old times
Shag Carpeting is an old-time rock band. They are Max and Verdona's favorite band. They appear in the episode Monster Weather, the original series short; Radio Dazed and are mentioned by Verdona in What Are Little Girls Made Of?.
Both Max and Ben Tennyson shorten the band's name to 'Shag Carpet' in Radio Dazed.
History
Before Ben actually began enjoying listening to their music, he insulted them by saying they make Wildvine look normal, much to Max's annoyance. Their music is played by Grandpa in the short Radio Dazed.
The band had a song called 'Twister Alley', which was played during the musical festival they were playing in Monster Weather.
Trivia
- The voice of the band member who grabs XLR8 to replace 'Nigel' is a parody of The Beatles' member 'Ringo Starr'.
- The band appeared on a poster in Ben's room during Collect This.
