The Doors

Any band name that forms a complete sentence needs a new name.

I'm sure every college campus has a band called this, but i'll mention it anyway.

THere was a called Free Beer. So you'd look on what was playing at the bar and it would have hte day and who was playing. So it wourld read "Thursday - Free Beer".

I always wanted to start a band and call it "Something Else". SO when you're in teh car and someone says "Lets listen to something else", it could mean your band

Pstt... Onion. Cunniglynguists and Swollen Members have been around for at least 5 or 6 years.

I still like Someone Still Loves You, Boris Yeltsin.
