Sean Crespo's Indie Band Brander®

I always wanted to name my band Johnny Derivitive and The Indefinite Intergals. Our first album would be The Fundamental Theorom of Calculus.

I feel your pain, yellojkt. I've always wanted someone to name an album Irreal Folk Blues. You know, there's an old Howlin' Wolf record called Real Folk Blues, and like "irreal" refers to numbers derived from the square root of negative one which really doesn't make sense to yr avg nonmath-geek person like myself: anyway, way cool. But has anyone listened? No! I also wanted someone to name an album A Nation of Gilligans..., cuz, you know, the Public Enemy album It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back... So I see your dorkiness and raise it...or however you'd say that if you knew anything about poker, which I don't.

Has anyone named their band The Scott Farkus Affair yet? If not, I'm starting that band.

The New Dehli Monkey Gang rules!
