Lost Character Lures Committed Fans  9/11/05

A group of Lost fans have become so fixated with Dominic Monaghen's rocker character Charlie Pace on the show, they've set up real-life fan sites for his fictional band Driveshaft.

Monaghan plays one of several characters stranded after a plane crash, and he's stunned to learn that he's managed to attract fans almost as committed as those who followed his hit Lord of the Rings trilogy.

He says, "That's the internet for you. It has a life of its own. It's a world bigger than our world that we can't control - kind of like the Matrix."

But Monaghan does like the idea of making his fans happy by bringing the band to life, adding, "If it did (happen), I'd be heavily involved with it. I would be singing and doing backing vocals, and maybe I'd try to play some guitar or some bass or some piano."
