Ultimate Fakebook


Ultimate Fakebook is an American three-piece power pop band from Manhattan, Kansas, United States. They released three albums; Electric Kissing Parties, This Will Be Laughing Week, and Open up and Say Awesome. Shortly after releasing their EP Before We Spark, they broke up.
In 2007, Melin and Warnock both appeared on VH1's World Series of Pop Culture on the team, "Westerberg High." They advanced to the quarterfinals before being eliminated by "Three Men & A Little Lazy." Together, they now run a popular movie review and film pop culture website, scene-stealers.com.
On December 30, 2008, Ultimate Fakebook played a small reunion show for a friend's birthday at the recordBar in Kansas City MO. Then on Thursday, Feb. 5th 2009, Ultimate Fakebook reunited again, this time for a much larger "official" reunion show at the Uptown Theater in Kansas City. This was also a benefit for the JayDoc free clinic, where licensed volunteer physicians supervise University of
Kansas School of Medicine students who provide care to the area’s under-served populations. The clinic operates on a volunteer basis, with supplies and medicines purchased through grants and donations.
On December 18, 19, and 20, 2009, the band opened for former touring mates and friends Motion City Soundtrack at Lincoln Hall in Chicago, Illinois.
On July 27, 2010, Ultimate Fakebook self-released their first album since 2003. A digital download comprising 16 original songs and one cover, the album is entitled Daydream Radio Is Smiling Static and is available exclusively on the band's website.
As of 2013, the band are still active and played a concert in their hometown on December 28, 2013, performing material from Daydream Radio is Smiling Static.
