in addition to U2, I hate both the bands Chicago and Boston, and I'm

[StopTheMorans]

starting a band named Raleigh. discuss

[JohnKleeb]

1. Why Raleigh?

[StopTheMorans]

5. check out Kick-Ass-Bob's thread where he references both boston and

chicago; he's from raleigh :7

[JohnKleeb]

7. Oh yeah ok

[KitchenWitch]

2. Why not Norfolk

or Roanoke!

[StopTheMorans]

6. see answer to Kleeb

[CanuckAmok]

3. Maybe you just hate America.

I hate America. What was up with that "Horse with no Name" bullshit, anyway?

[StopTheMorans]

8. yeah, that song sucks. la, la, la la la la, la la la, LA la

in the desert, you can't remember any other songs, so you have to listen to bad music...

[mr_hat]

4. Don't forget to hate Kansas.

[StopTheMorans]

9. i forgot poland too!

:cry:

[RandomKoolzip]

10. I'm starting a band called The Quad Cities.

Our spinoff will be called Truth or Consequences.

[Magrittes Pipe]

11. Viva Enon!

:shrug:

[mark414]

16. but what of brainiac?

[Magrittes Pipe]

20. Braniac died with Tim Taylor.

Enon is no Braniac.

But Braniac wasn't named after a shithole town.

[mark414]

25. maybe i am just crazy

but i've always liked enon more than brainiac...

:shrug:

[mark414]

12. europe sucked pretty bad too

[StopTheMorans]

15. 5...4...3...2...1 ITS THE FINAL COUNTDOWN!

[ashmanonar]

19. that's bc the combined mass of the hair of the 5 guys(?)

is enough to reach critical mass and begin a black hole. that's what sucks so much.

[kick-ass-bob]

13. don't do it.

Sir Walter Raleigh should not be the impetus for a band.

[StopTheMorans]

14. altho, one must admit, those are some pretty hot man-leggings!

[JohnKleeb]

17. Whats that thing near his neck called?

[StopTheMorans]

21. a "lampshade", it's to keep him from biting at his manleggings

[JohnKleeb]

23. Thanks I always wondered

ha.

[StopTheMorans]

24. i was a history major in college Kleeb, I know these things

:silly:

[JohnKleeb]

27. I considered doing that

[StopTheMorans]

30. unless you're considering using it as a springboard to more school,

i'd probably lean away from it :D

[JohnKleeb]

33. I am gonna be a poli sci major now

Enables me to be a liberal arts major at the comm college, yessssssss very little math and science.

[StopTheMorans]

37. good choice Kleeber

:thumbsup:

[JohnKleeb]

38. Yeah its gonna work out great

minor in journalism as well.

[kick-ass-bob]

26. did they shave their legs back then?

:shrug:

[JohnKleeb]

28. I doubt it

[StopTheMorans]

29. no, they often chewed their leg hair off. however, often the skin would

become chafed from overchewing, and the person (in this case the fine Mr. Raleigh) would have to wear a lampshade for a bit to prevent additional chafing.

[kick-ass-bob]

31. aha!

I knew there was a logical explanation!

[StopTheMorans]

34. as i was telling the venerable Mr. Kleeb, my history degree is proving

to be quite useful this afternoon...

[Lavender Brown]

18. Reconsider the band name

Go with Worcester or Sheboygan. Or Poughkeepsie. :P

[StopTheMorans]

22. are you an afficionado of "Po-town"? i knew a guy in college from there

who was, without doubt, the most lecherous, debaucherous soul i have ever had the pleasure of meeting. went there once, and i could see why :D

[Lavender Brown]

32. I went to college there

but I did not associate with townies. Ugh. (J/k, PK residents!)

[StopTheMorans]

36. nice; i knew there was a reason i liked you

:P

[Blue_In_AK]

35. Well, I don't know about Raleigh...

...but I never could stand Chicago either.

[HughBeaumont]

39. Man, most bands named after countries and cities SUCKED

Japan, Chicago (like their pre-1976 stuff, though), Boston, Bay City Rollers, Kansas, Europe, Alabama . . . ECCCCH.

For good ones, there's Berlin and some of the Kentucky Headhunters and America.

Planetary bands are not bad - Earth, Sunn(o))))), M.A.R.R.S.

[StopTheMorans]

40. that's a fine analysis!

:thumbsup:
