    You forgot Tony Bennett. Also, Four Troops. (For Troops? The quartet who did the anthem.) Also, Kid Rock & Cheryl Crow.

      I'm bad at this but how about, keeping with the music theme...

      What singing duo has been United and Reunited, though it has consisted of 7 different people over its history?

        Hmm. Most singing duos are identified by their names (Peaches and Herb, The Captain and Tennille, Simon and Garfunkel, Chad and Jeremy, Peter and Gordon, The Judds, Brooks and Dunn, Seals and Croft...). I'm totally drawing a blank.

          *cough*

          Maybe the 7 different people thing threw you off. Technically, there has been 1 person in the male role and 6 different women in the female role in this duo. In fact, the woman when they were United is a different woman from when they were Reunited... *cough* you know it already.

            Darn, I was there too, but too far away. Missed Ozzy.

                  Yeah, "Reunited" was pretty obvious I guess.

                  Now, which former Saturday Night Live cast member/writer got his start in show business as a child actor in an Abbott and Costello film?

                    Hmm... I could swear I've heard this before...

                    It isn't Bill Murray, is it?

                        I would have said Brian Doyle Murray.

                        ACK!

                            Heh. Had to google it. I had heard that before. You sometimes forget he was on SNL, even though he was in one of the best (pre-taped) skits ever.
