The Pop 'N Rocker Game is an American game show and variety show produced by Ron Greenberg Productions and Alan Landsburg Productions. The program premiered on September 17, 1983, and aired through September 1984 and combined musical trivia with in-studio performances. Two bands were featured on every episode; as such, the show was touted at the opening of each show as a "Game in Concert".[1]
Jon Bauman was the show's host, and both Phil Hartman and M.G. Kelly served as announcers. Some notable bands that appeared on The Pop 'N Rocker Game were Mötley Crüe, Huey Lewis and the News, Culture Club, Oingo Boingo, and The Commodores.[1] The very first televised appearance of the Bangles with new bassist Michael Steele happened on The Pop 'N Rocker Game.
