From an article about the deploying of the International Space Station's new solar panels: one astronaut is mentioned...
...Christopher J. Ferguson, another Navy captain, who is on his first shuttle mission and is a member of the all-astronaut rock band Max Q.

Where do they play? Where can a geek(ette) buy their CDs? Someone must know...
