Susan DiLucci and the Miracle of Life I’m going to keep suggesting it until somebody actually uses it. Also, I want to be the bass player. (note to self- must dust off my trusty bass Isadore, which I haven’t played in two years…) ---

[personal note] jesuslynch. I hit the suggested reading material. Damn funny story. I’s jes’ bein’ yer favorite grammar cop. [/personal note] Spritle has been musically bent throughout life, degree of talent notwithstanding. As above, played w/ Roadside Petz. In some other thread, mentioned that I did a show under the name of Holden MacRoyne. Always wanted to put out an album (well, that’s what we used to call ‘em) under the name Scott Freeh titled "Gettin’ Off". Now I just need to learn a fourth chord! In that I’ll probably never use the Scott Freeh idea, I would be honored if it were to live on. Perhaps… Scott Freeh and the Stabbers Scott Freeh and the O.J. String Band let your mind wander. ---

While they’d maybe be more appropriate for a goth band, I’ll throw these out: The Hounds of Tindalos 10,000 Young of Shub-Niggurath Faceless Chaos Cthulhu Pthagn Witch House Can we tell I’m a Lovecraftite? 🙂 ---

Susan Di Lucci and the Miracle of Life. Damn, I can’t believe you would let a band name drawn from the sickest Urban Legend to come along in a couple of decades go to waste… ---

Being’s you’re from Tampa, do you ever read Dave Barry? One of his constant notes is “wouldn’t \_\_\_\_ be a great name for a band?” I’m sure he’ll come up with something to your liking. ---

I haven’t had much exposure to Dave Barry, but I have seen a little bit of his stuff… I got a few votes for Three Pump Chump yesterday as well. I think we might wait to find a drummer to finalise the band name though, even though my two favorites are the Destructos! and Three Pump Chump. [hijak] O.K., usually I’m up on Urban Legends, but what’s this about Susan Di Lucci(DeLucci?) and the miracle of life? [/hijak] punk snot dead broccoli! ---
