    What's in a name?

    ...that which we call a band...by any other name, would rock so hard?

    So a friend of mine and I are doing some side gigs acoustically, and thought it be wise to come up with a unified band name (he's got his own band, Litmus Vinyl, and mine's Wasted Talent).

    Its up to YOU to decide our fate. After toiling many hours over a random band name generator, and fighting to the death for what we believe, Seamus and I have agreed on two names that could fit us accordingly, but we can't decide. So we leave it up to you. The fans, friends, family....the people. We live in a nation of democracy, go to http://www.niceapron.com/, and vote for your choice for Seamus and Brian band name, 2007. Will it be: Sideshow Mob, or Simple Emergency.

    Thanks for your time.

    Sideshow Mob makes me think of the snooty Simpson's character "Sideshow Bob," and Simple Emergency sounds like an acne medication:

    Teenybopper: "Oh my God! Tonight's the prom and I have the hugest zit on my forehead! Whatever will I do?"

    Voiceover: "Pimple emergency? Then get Simple Emergency! In one easy application, you can reduce the size of your zits by nearly 40%!"

    Teenybopper, now zit free, and at the prom: "Thank you Simple Emergency! You're the best!" (makes a "thumbs up" gesture)

    I almost wish that was a real product, just to see M's commercial!

    Anyway, I'm voting for Sideshow Mob.

    Haha, I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought of that. I'm sure syxx will be happy to see that too.


    Anyway, I like Simple Emergency more even though now I'm always going to see it as a pimple emergency commercial. Sideshow Mob sounds a little too much like Sideshow Bob.

    Or maybe it's a mix between Sideshow Bob and Goodie Mob...hmm..

    Why not just combine your current band names? How about Wasted Vinyl?
