Title: Worst Band Names
Post by: Slaky+ on March 17, 2008, 09:25:36 PM
Just realized that this thread was killed in the Ratto incident.

I just thought of a sweet band name that I may never get to use, but I'm earmarking it. If any of you start a band, you may certainly use it.

Argentina Yothers .

Yep, it's horrible.

That's better than Argentina Turner Overdrive.

The above comment should in no way be interpreted as an endorsement of Jack Black or any of his shit.

Either that, or he just reeeeeeeally loves that scene in the movie.  Jack Black.  Belle and Sebastian.  Katrina and the Waves.  Comedy.

I actually have an album by Everybody Was In The French Resistance...Now! It's basically the guy from Art Brut and some chick writing song responses to other famous songs.
