    Default Back to finding a band name.......

    As much as we all like Radio Logic, we can't use it if we want to put it out on the web. Those boys in Alberta own the name, and we need something "our own" to avoid confusion.

    So...................................we're back to square one with finding a name for this project. I didn't really enjoy the first trip around..................

    Naming a band is SO hard. How about "<fill in name? and the Plank Spankers?"

    I always wondered... how does one "own" a name for a band? Is there a master list somewhere? I know I paid something like $30 to get "Attention Deficit Disorder" online somewhere. For all I know it was a scam.

    A name with a noun immediately followed by a verb. Or a verb then a noun. (ex. "Shadows Fall", "Smashing Pumpkins", Traveling Wildebeests, Planks Spanking...something like that)

    If you go with a "The"....only do one word after the "The". More impact.

    The "(verb)"

    The "(noun)"

    verbs are more cooler.

    I put Radio Logic in the anagram generator. Here's what comes out:

    A Logic ID Or?

    Acid Log Rio

    CIA God Roil - if you cancel the roil then "CIA GOD" sounds kinda cool to me.

    Doria Logic - kinda mysterious...

    I still think that "The Stunning ****s" is a really good name, but maybe you loose some gigs because of it.

    *edit* the dirty-word filter got me on this one, but I guess that you can figure it out...

    I like this name.

    Just how many squares *are* there anyway?

    If it's Monoploy, then you keep coming back 'round to square one, but at least you get 200 clams for doing so.
