Subject: Help name a band!! From: alison Date: 10 May 00 - 10:43 AM You all helped me to name a band before.. now I need help again. We need to have a name in the next few days.... There are 3 of us.. playing a mixture of Australian, Irish, Celtic, rock, pop, and tunes.. but we don't want a name that will pigeonhole us into one particular area, (so anything with "bush band" in it - is automatically ruled out). Having said that we would like to sound Australian, (hard to please...I know..*grin*). there are 3 of us ....2 fellas (1 Aussie, 1 English)and me (Irish). I know someone out there is bound to have more ideas than we do at the moment..... thanks slainte alison

Subject: RE: BS: Help name a band!! From: Jed at Work Date: 10 May 00 - 03:24 PM I played with Eammon's Kitchen this weekend in Shreveport. THye chose their name becasue they developed the core of the music while sitting in Bodrhan player, Eammon's kitchen! Anyway, this weekend, Karen (the self titled Queen of band) said we were "Eammon's Kitchen, otherwise known as Hillbillies on Guinness!" We have been accused of having bluegrass flavor to our music, so this comment was quite appropriate. Maybe you could develop something off of that idea ... good luck! |

Subject: RE: BS: Help name a band!! From: rpm Date: 10 May 00 - 10:36 PM If you'd like to avoid being pigeon holed who could certainly be "Square Pegs" or perhaps the three of you find yourselves "In-Dependency". "Southern Cross" might emphasize the blend of backgrounds. but "Ayers' Apparent" might not fly. Best wishes, -Bob |
Subject: RE: BS: Help name a band!! From: Billy the Bus Date: 10 May 00 - 10:46 PM Gidday Alison, All the best ones were gone by the time I got here. All I can think of is Kangaroo Court
