What would you name your 80s band

Postby n/a5 » Thu Apr 27, 2006 12:43 pm

I got in the car today and was listening to Elvis Costello and wondered what I how would I name my 80s band after myself? I must confess I was part of two very obscure 80s local bands....Bioelectric Feedback and Blue Screen (I played keyboard and bass...Casio if NATE ever sees this by the way)but I was wondering if you guys could list some fantasy band names based on your username on here just for shits and giggles. For Instance: Nero and the Flames, Nero Dance, or Lance and the Neros....you get the picture.

"Ollie Stench" has been my stage name since about 1984, so I guess my band would be "Ollie Stench and the _______"

I've always wanted to start a band named Genii (faux plural of Genius). For extra stupidity points, I'd put an umlaut over one or both of the i's.

[/quote]Hi Ya Ben,
In keeping with the theme, your band could be "A [b]Frock[/b] of Seagulls."

Absolutely lovin' this weather; I just don't want it to hit 100 quite yet, though
