Play the band name game!

Jan 09, 2008 08:55

Gerald rearranged his April travel plans, and now we definitley have a trio for Arts Walk. The only thing left (besides practicing occasionally) is that most critical challenge, The Band Name.

My mother, a fan of any advertising that gets people through the doors, suggests Hot and Naked. My father, a more practical man, prefers Tips Accepted. I'm fond of neither, and especially dislike my father's suggestion of WilL Sleep Around For Gigs, especially since it is base falsehood.*

These have been vetoed.

Other names which one of us can't support include (but are no means limited to!) ...
Two Grumps and a Gimp
Two Duffers and a Ditz
2 and a half Pints (I'd be the half, natch)
We Have Day Jobs
Three Neat

Names which are still in the running...
Scallywag
Blue Heron
Totally Oblivious
Tonally Oblivious
Trad, Anon.

The Band Name Game is now open! Comment with your brilliant ideas. If it matters, we play accoustic traditional-based (but not always traditional) music, from Irish, Quebecois, and Contra repetoirs. The gwo guys are old enough to be my father. One of them is my father. I = fiddle, Dad = bodhran, Gerald = mandolin +guitar.

*Gerald: "And all this time I thought it had something to do with talent."
Dad: "Maybe it does.

Yes. That was really my father implying that of course his offspring would be good in bed. Best not to think about that too hard. Mom explained that he assumes it's genetic and I got it from him.

Since the actual offer was more one of convienience, perhaps a more appropriate name would be Speeddial 6 (or whichever I actually am on Erik's phone).

otter's holt, accompanist, friends, music
