"Banned from Argo" is a humorous filk song that was first performed in 1983 by Leslie Fish at the world science fiction convention held in Baltimore, Maryland. The song is a tribute to the science fiction fandom and is based on the popular folk song "The Wild Rover."
The song tells the story of a group of rowdy, mischievous fans who are banned from the fictional city of Argo for their wild and destructive behavior. The song has become a popular anthem among sci-fi fans and is often sung at science fiction conventions and filk festivals.
The song has been covered by numerous artists and has inspired several parodies and spin-offs. It has also been featured in several science fiction-themed films and TV shows, including the web series "Star Trek Continues."
Despite its popularity, some fans have criticized the song for perpetuating negative stereotypes about sci-fi fans as rowdy and disruptive. However, others argue that the song is a lighthearted tribute to the fun and creativity of fandom.
