9:45p - Name that band
It is the LAW that EVERY band, local or not, MUST attempt to think of a name one night in the pub, and the first idea will ALWAYS be "Let's call ourselves 'Free Beer'! Then we'll get a really big audience!" Other suggestions will be "The Band With No Name", "Cancelled", "SEX!!!" and "To Be Confirmed" ... [MJ Hibbett] This theme continues in a mildly diverting article about bands with lame names by Mr Broken Family Band in today's Guardian. I post it because ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) j4 bought me the Oxjam Reading Mix Tape with contributions from groups doomed to be forever local: Hello Wembley, Gonzo & The Razz, Jones Radio, Heartwear Process and (the least excusable) Kev Barz & Springboard to Badinage.
To my surprise, they're not that bad at all. It is for charity. And no punctuation marks were abused.
