I like these band names. I would like to see these bands.
I specifically would like to see "Worthless Proverbs of the Public Transpo Worker" so that I can find the person who shortened "Transportation" to "Transpo" and, you know, maybe set him on fire.
I have met a singer in a band who, didn't play an instrument but said about her 'tambourine prowess':
"I play a wicked Tambo."
grrrrgahgahhghhgggghhhhh.
seriously, look at that:
"I play a wicked Tambo."
What. the. Fuck.
Was she hot?
Related story, sort of. My first real job was as a dishwasher at age 14. There was one waiter at the restaurant--a fellow who wore horn-rimmed glasses and read novels during his breaks--who was nice enough to chat with the pimply dishwasher (me) sometimes (he smarmed on all the female employees, constantly, too).
One day friendly-smarmy beatnik guy and I were taking out the garbage together and talking about music (he was a musician). I asked what he played and he said, "Lately I've really been concentrating on my bongos."
I set my side of the garbage bin down and had a little laugh. He didn't. He really had been concentrating on his bongos.
Awkward.
Back to the convo about the wicked tambo...
