What is your band's current name?
"It's all folk music... I ain't never heard no horse sing!"
- Attributed variously to Leadbelly and Louis Armstrong

If at first you don't succeed, you are obviously not Chuck Norris.

Maybe I shouldn't have said 'change'. I don't think we have one yet.

We're kind of like a jam oriented/prog/rock band.

Sounds groovy. Only I'd spell it "Tha Middknight Sölar" because it's obviously a lot cooler that way.

I dono, its nice
but if you sorta switch it around, to The "Solar Midknights"
i dono its gotta a ring to it.
whatever its all good. my bands name was Inertia, so what do i know, before that we were "yellow fish banana's"
to the "parana's" and thats why we probably broke up. you gotta have a good name. Judge every book by its cover/name.
When it comes down to it, our guitar's will always be there for us. :rolleyes:

Hmm, I don't know - Henry Cow is a ridiculous name for a band, but I think they're great. On the other hand, the Deftones is a pretty cool name for a band, and I can't stand them.

Me and acapella spend a good portion of our time coming up with funny names for metal bands. Like "Piggybäkk" or "Krönnik Payne."

I don't think I'm in a position to really argue band names. I've got two bands going and the only one that has a title of any kind (until we get a new one) is called "Hulk Big Knife." Yeah, so I dunno. If it feels right, then go for it.

Sorry, Jeff...

Hey Eric, how about "The Reocurring Nightmares"? I always thought that was a pretty cool name for a band.

Are you just a huge Motley Crue and Motorhead fan?
I want the bomb
I want the P-funk!

My band is better than yours...

If by "huge fan" you mean "guy who likes to make fun of them," then yes.

Actually, I've never really listened to Motorhead, they might be good. I don't like Motley Crue.

Motley Crue is a very guilty pleasure of mine. I'm aware they're talentless and awful, but I still listen to their horrendously cliche and cheesy music.
