Warp 11
Warp 11 is a rock band from Sacramento, California that performs original songs with lyrics entirely about Star Trek. Warp 11 music covers a wide range of styles including alternative, classic rock, punk, country and blues. Their lyrics are humorous and sometimes profane. Warp 11 was interviewed in the Paramount Pictures documentary Trekkies 2. The Warp 11 song "Everything I Do, I Do With William Shatner" was included in the television broadcast of the Comedy Central Roast of William Shatner.
Band history
Early years
In 1996, Karl Miller was working for an Internet broadcasting company, Play TV, making a streaming Internet video show about Star Trek. Karl decided to form a band that only sang songs about Star Trek to fill time on the show. He had already been in bands with Jeff Hewitt as a teenager and the rest of the band fell into place quickly. Warp 11 formed in 1999 with Karl Miller, Brian Moore, Jeff Hewitt, and Kiki Stockhammer.
A new drummer
John Merlino, although not an official member of Warp 11, could often be seen playing drums for Warp 11 during concerts to allow Jeff to take center stage (or to relieve him when he was injured and couldn't play a full set—Warp 11's sets average close to two hours) and was unofficially given the rank of ensign in 2005. At a September 2007 performance in San Francisco, Karl hinted that Jeff had left the band due to physical problems resulting from numerous injuries. John Merlino was promoted from "ensign" to "number one" (commander or first officer) at that show. Karl stated that Jeff may return occasionally to lend his vocal talents, which he did for the CD release performance of "Suck My Spock Some More".

The Ballad Of Bones 2
by: Warp 11I had a job washing dishes at an old bar and grill
After hours I drink like a fool
With a mighty good friend who happened to bartend
His way through medical school
He was a young star fleet doctor
About fell off his rocker when his assignment came in
Country boys born and raised at the stars we did gaze
The next morning he left stinking of gin
Well, McCoy, my boy, come mix me a drink
Before the night's over I'll puke in the sink
And we'll cry till we laugh and we'll both **** our pants
You're the best drinking friend I've ever had
He spent many a year in danger and fear
On sailing a ship beyond the stars
So imagine my surprise when I heard he had died
In his bed 50 million miles this side of Mars
This old bar gets lonely around this time of night
And lonely is why I'm drinking for two
As I scrub out the stains and mop up the goo
In the home to the only Bones I ever knew
Dammit Jim
