Rejected Band Names

CalebFSU · February 2007

Jack that was Ed Cotton, His band Pretty Boy Feud was a cool band to check out. Ed got me kick started in this style. Showed me some stuff to get me going in the right direction and even put me and a friend up for the night at his place just to play guitar the next day. Last I heard he was getting married and going back to school. I am not sure if he ever did the Sgt Peppers project or not.

Ed if you check these boards hit me up we need to catch up.

That's it! It was Freud, though, right? Just a typo no doubt...anyway Ed always seemed like a cool guy; I wonder what he's up to...but to get back to the topic, someone once misheard me and thought we played 'Jungle Rhino" music...

best,
Jack.

Many years ago (many, many years ago) my pals and I used to go out as Sixteen String Swing (2 guitars, 1 bass).

Cool, what?

OK... it was a LONG time ago, we were young...

LOL!!

My band is officially changing it's name to: The Quintette of the Hot Club of Freedom.

Actually, speaking of bad names, "Quintette du Hot Club de France" is pretty cumbersome.

My band: The Old School Preservation Society does not exactly roll off the tung but people tend to remember it.

How bout' Django's Pinky

well it wasn't really a band name at all, just a descriptor. The quintet that was sponsored/promoted by the Hot Club of France.

I always wonder when I see bands called "The Hot Club of ______" because "The Hot Club of France" was simply a group of French Jazz enthusiasts, not the name of Django's ensemble.

In all earnestness I advise those who have not yet chosen a bandname not to use something with the letters "d" and "j" next to each other. That old gag has been thoroughly exhausted.

This thread is just a Public Service Announcement. Some folks haven't heard these yet and need to be educated so that they don't make the same mistakes.

Dja know what I'm talking about?
