Is that a real band or a fictional band?

Well, the back story is this: PMT was me (Paul), and my friends Murray and Tom. See? We did this thing called PMT Jazzattack!, which was supposed to be us as an free jazz trio, performing entirely improvisational cover songs, and a few originals. We covered songs in the sense that we used the lyrics, and if Murray knew the tune (which he usually did not), he might sing it to that tune. Meanwhile, we would improvise music on any and all available instruments. We did this for a few years, then I moved out of the house in 2008. We did have a brief reunion in 2009, which turned out to be really shitty, so we figured we would turn that to our advantage and try and make a mockumentary out of it. Of course, nobody wanted to be involved, and then Tom went back up to live in Shetland, so it was mostly me and Murray (mostly just me) coming up with a way to make a story out of the end of PMT.
It was a bitch to edit, because I had to trawl through eight miniDV tapes (mostly for that big long section of short clips from various Jazzattack! episodes), plus I've been real lazy and creatively dead for the past couple years, so it took me this long to actually finish it. The last part of it to be filmed (except the little warning at the start) was last December. That's how lazy we're talking here.
Also, the whole thing is kind of embarrassingly dumb, but hey, we dug that hole, now we die in it.
