....and we have a winner.
It was indeed Roky Erikson's legendary Elevators. I can't remember if they ever said why they thought a jug player was a good idea, but hey, it was the '60s.

That be them. Although they didn't keep the name long. After they hired Pete Meaden (sp?) as their manager he changed their name to High Numbers. But when their first single was released and tanked big time they fired Meaden and took back The Who as their name.
To you EDE.

As far as I know, only three people who have played with Genesis have performed on Late Night With Conan O'Brien.
Name them.

Taking a wild stab at it I'd have to go for Collins, Rutherford and Gabriel.

Guessing the three members with the most successful solo careers isn't a bad strategy, but unfortunately Mike and the Mechanics haven't released an album or toured in the U.S. in well over a decade (probably longer than Conan's been on the air), and Collins just isn't hip enough for the Late Night set.
Gabe, however, appeared to support his latest album, Up.

Good guesses. Only I'm being even sneakier than that.

Okay, here's a hint:
One of the two played live with Genesis, but never in the studio. The other played in the studio, but never live.
