11 May 00 - 05:04 AM (#226297) Subject: name another band please From: Ella who is Sooze Okay, right so, you are giving the lads in Australia a hand with a band name, so I thought I would try. I am in a band who can't decide their name, (we have been through 4 already and the problem with the latest one is that someone else already has it!) There are four of us, two girlies and two fellas. We play Irish/Scottish and Welsh music and live in Wales. There's four different nationalities in group. Let me know if you need any more info on the group to help out. So there we go - any really catchy ideas appreciated Slainte

If that seems inappropriate for a mixed-gender group, how about if you all wear clothes with fancy designs on them, and call yourself The Prints. |
