I had no idea Oingo Boingo was so obscure.

It depends on the age group and interests of op friends. I can see current high schoolers not knowing Oingo Boingo.

Hell, I had a friend in college who didn't know who the BEATLES were.

I'm so used to trying to convince my parents of the opposite, that stuff from more than a decade ago hasn't been completely forgotten.

I don't really know anyone where I live (Iowa) who's familiar with them. They might know the song "Weird Science" if you played it for them, but they wouldn't know the band's name. If I understand it right, I think they were really big in California and maybe had a light cult following elsewhere in the U.S. at best. My dad was the one who got me interested in them in the first place...and he was originally from California.

Then once I found out that Danny Elfman was involved in so much stuff I liked as a kid (the aforementioned "Weird Science" song, 'Nightmare Before Christmas', 'Beetlejuice'), that just made me like and appreciate his work even more :D.

It sucks that more people don't know about Oingo Boingo. They're a damn good band. Very fun.
