Ned and the Needlefish (since 1970s) are a music group with Ned as the head singer. They all wear a white wig. They have only appeared in "Wigstruck". When Ned showed his band the wig, they questioned whether it was a wig or a pile of toilet paper. One of the band members took it off to try it on, thus revealing Ned's baldness. So, they played "Hot Potato," and eventually the wig fell out of the window of the bus. Ned later goes to Bigshot Records and gets kicked out of the band due to his being bald. Afterward, he walked around Bikini Bottom in shame and gets slammed in his face by his missing wig that SpongeBob released. Ned then rejoined the band and sold a hit record.

PopularityEdit

Ned and the Needlefish are a very popular band and are known across the whole Pacific Ocean and they attract large crowds. They seem kind of selfish and mean except for Ned. They tour in Bikini Bottom, and they have been present since 1967. They made their first album in 1972. The group formed in 1967 while in high school as the Trojans and changed the name in 1972. The founding member Thomas Jones died of a heart attack at his home in 2004. Earl Atkins was in a fatal car crash in 1979 that left him in a wheelchair. He left Ned and the Needlefish in 1977, two years before his accident. Despite this, he was still alive as of today.

Band Attitude and Near-closureEdit

Ned is kind, but he got upset when the Needlefish stole his Wig. The Needlefish seem quite cheeky but Ned is more serious about their work. The band was about to break up when they arrived at Bigshot Records due to Ned being bald. Without his powder wig, he had no respect. After he found his wig again, all was well and the band went on to sell many hit records.
