SuperGroup was a 2006 reality show on VH1 that followed five well-known hard rock and heavy metal musicians over a 12-day period during which they lived together in a Las Vegas mansion in order to create, plan and perform a live show together. The show, which aired in seven segments, starred band members Sebastian Bach, Jason Bonham, Scott Ian, Ted Nugent and Evan Seinfeld. Doc McGhee, who had previously worked with Bach and his band Skid Row, appeared as the band's manager. Journalist Lonn Friend and photographer Ross Halfin, who were long-time contributors for other VH1 features such as Behind the Music, appeared on the show.
It's the day of the concert, and everyone starts to show signs of nerve and excitement. To calm down the other members, Ted arranges a barbecue to raise their spirits; at the barbecue, all band members express how much they enjoy the current project and agree to treat the project as an actual band instead of a one-off performance.
The Nuge goes to a radio promo and flips out.
The band discusses their next day warm-up performance, during which Sebastian and Jason debate their stage show, and while Sebastian insists that the drummer look him in the eye, Jason simply prefers to play his own thing and others to follow. Ted takes Scott and Evan to a shooting range, where they fire various heavy weaponry. Jason stays home, because he doesn't like the idea, while Sebastian stays to take a rest. Ted's wife Shemane also arrives, and voices concern about both her attitude not being a "rock-star wife" not fitting in with the other wives, and the constant swearing of the band.
The band members finally agree on the name.
The bands manager isn't impressed by their first song. The Nuge and Sebastian start to have second thoughts about the name "FIST".
Jason Bonham has to leave because of two Foreigner shows he has to perform at, so the management gets Kid Beyond, a human beatboxer to fill in, as well as a fashion stylist to "update their image" - the band protests vehemently to both approaches. They settle for band name - "Fist".
The band members meet in Las Vegas for the first time.
