Does anybody know what the name of the band that perform the theme tune to WWF Summerslam?

And, anybody know how Weezer made the video for Buddy Holly, meaning did they paste in clips from the show (Happy Days) with them performing or what?

The weezer video, was done rather simply.
All they did was film the band playing the instuments, on a blue kroma-key screen (blue blocks are placed on the set to act as a reference point, as to where 'things' are in the happy days footage)
Then, when the filming is over, in post-production, the 'real' happy days footage is overlayed, and the Weezer footage is digitally degraded to look like it's straight out of the 1950's, and then manipulated frame by frame, to make sure there is no overlay clash.

It looks impressive, however the process (although time consuming) is rather simple.

Happy to help
