I don’t know why, but I think Marked Unread is my favorite. Good list!
Some guys I knew in college named their band “Lung Butter” and had to change it because it was already taken!
I’m still chuckling to myself that I put “DO NOT STEAL THEM” when I have no intention of ever starting a band.
Perhaps some young upstart band would like to license one from me… and I can make them sign a horrible contract that will give me all their royalties! **insert evil cackle laugh here**
I’m not sure where this evil side of me came from… Oh wait–it was my father!
Merry Christmas to you and the boy and Jer. Hope you guys have a wonderful holiday season.
I see you are starting the new year with a flurry of posts.
Happy New Year!
The band names I use on Guitar Hero/Rock Band:

Penguin Sex
