Question: is jesse and the rippers a real band

Answer: No, On July 10, 2012, Stamos began performances on Broadway in Gore Vidal's The Best Man as Senator Joseph Cantwell. Stamos reprised his role as Jesse Katsopolis for a ``Jesse and the Rippers'' reunion on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon on July 19, 2013. Played straight by host Fallon (who introduced the band as being from San Francisco and having a number one song in Japan), Stamos performed a medley of songs featured on Full House including ``Forever'' and the series' theme song ``Everywhere You Look''. Bob Saget and Lori Loughlin also made cameos.
