Shit's heavy, man.
So is there like a AWK Corps (not unlike the Green Lantern Corps)?

If there are 2 performers, I guess there may be a dead body involved. I hadn't thought of that.
I feel like there is a better superhero comparison (where there's a whole bunch of the same hero) I can make but I can't put my finger on it. Captain Britain, maybe?

This reminds me of when I was a kid and the rumor was that WWF wrestler The Ultimate Warrior had died from steroid use and was replaced by a different guy. This is just as dumb.

I have to admit I didn't look into this far enough (which is to say not far at all) -- on closer inspection it all looks like a bullshit manufactured controversy.

Shouldn't have dignified this topic with a post to begin with. Sorry AWK!

I'll just add that this 'debate' is not new.

I can't believe people have poured so much time and energy into this... they're like the moon landing hoax theorists or the 9/11 truthers, except it's all based around a musician who is barely known in mainstream culture.

My favorite theory is that it's all a subliminal ad campaign for Sierra Mist.

Everyone knows Andrew WK was an inside job. The Bilderberger Group knew all about it from day one.
I'm warning you with peace and love.

Totally ... I heard about it AGES ago at the Bohemian Grove back when they were work-shopping it.

Maybe it's like the Man or Astroman clone lineups.
I'll probably go into the wee hours.

All I know is that George W. Bush's brother was Andrew W. K.'s manager at the time.  See?  George W. Bush?  Andrew W. K?  Follow the money.

This is weird.  I have a mild form of face blindness, and other than the beard I can't tell a difference between the two faces.

The guy on the I Get Wet cover is not the same person that is performing under the Andrew WK name. He even said at one point that the first dude was fired (presumably Album Cover Man?). All of this matters not one whit.
