**And** would be a terrible name for a band. Or better yet, just **&**. You would never find any info on them via Google searches, and no one would ever know they were playing by reading club ads: TONIGHT Sniffing Mom’s Tampon & Placenta Stew As an aside, before settling on their name the Butthole Surfers performed as Ashtray Babyheads, Nine Inch Worm Makes Own Food, and The Inalienable Right to Eat Fred Astaire’s Asshole. ---
