    Exclamation Band Name Game

    A friend of mine introduced me to this game a couple of years ago, and we sometimes have battles via text message. I'm not sure if he came up with it or not, but it's kind of fun regardless.

    Combine two (or more) band names together, linking via a common word or multiple syllables. Try to avoid repeats as much as possible.

    Examples:

    Animal Collective Soul
    Semisonic Youth
    The Rolling Stone Roses (kind of cheated on that one)

    Let's see what you've got!

    The Law of Gravity is nonsense. No such law exists. If I think I float, and you think I float, then it happens.

    Kind of the right idea, but you have to overlap at least part of a word and keep the band names in order to make it work.

    For instance, you could do Pearl Jamiroquai or Frank Black Keys, but not Alicia Black Keys, if you catch my drift.
