Yes. Emphasis is on the second syllable.

Now that this is all cleared up, I think now is a real good time to finally stop talking about my goddamn band on the EA message boards.

i really like Danger Adventure.

the band i am in is called Kahoots. there are two things i don't like about it.

1) it is spelled wrong
2) it is stupid

we used it for what was going to be a one off show and that was like 10 years ago. 250 shows later we are still using it. for a while i really didn't like it but now i am just used to it i guess. in fact, even though it is stupid i kind of like it. a few years after we started the band i found out that there is a strip club in conn. called kahoots. i almost crashed my car the first time i drove by this huge billboard that said "kahoots, lunch with a view"

In chronological order, with a * denoting names I came up with:

Dime Detectives - you be the judge
Island Uprising - Not Crap
Natalie and the Gentlemen Who Prefer Blondes - again, you be the judge
Red Swan (before Tom kicked me out) - Not Crap
St. Vincent & the Grenadines* - Not Crap
Gmgh (spelling may vary) - Not Crap
Quiver of Arrows* - Not Crap

No solid Craps in the bunch, I'm pleased to say. I successfully resisted a girlfriend's urging to start a band called Cannibal Fetus.

If I were in a palindromic band in the vein of IfIHadAHiFi, it would be called Sit on a potato pan, Otis.

Or perhaps, A woman, a plan, a canal: Panamowa!

i was briefly in a band with an ex-girlfriend of mine called -NAME REMOVED TO PROTECT THOSE RESPONSIBLE- . that band name is CRAP with a high waffle factor, much like the band itself was.

i was in two other bands with a CRAP name growing up which i cannot tell you about because then people will do a search for aformentioned bands and discover how CRAP they really are (and in one case continue to be).

i am now creating a long-gestating solo project called the beatles. i am looking for NOT CRAP people to participate.

I once said that people misuse the word "myself" at least 97% of the time. I now believe that this estimate was low.

Goddamn you.

Myself cannot be held responsible for grammatical errors myself commits while at myself's soul-sucking corporate job.

Edit: Myself.

HA!

It's cool, in a "Murph and the Magictones" kinda way.

In high school I was in a band called Just Ducky. Now, that is a lousy name for a band. Hold your heads high, fellow posters on this thread, you were never in a band named Just Ducky.

I have a solo project now called Wacky Deli, and I think thats a completely horrible name. If it didnt have the whole Rocco's modern life theme, it would be easily one of the worst names ever. Yes, even worse than JJ Paradise Player's Club.

I still think its pretty awful.

Any new name ideas?

God, what have I been thinking....

Hey, that name's not so bad considering that there's a story behind it.
