Not really - and that's why we're not using them. But I'm still calling dibs!!!

― darin (darin), Thursday, 21 September 2006 06:20 (twenty years ago)

I wish I had called dibs on "The Locofocos," but apparently there's some shit alt-country band by that name. I'm trying to convince my bandmates that we should call ourselves "The Locofocos UK."

― Curt1s St3ph3ns, Friday, 22 September 2006 00:26 (twenty years ago)

― Jordan (Jordan), Friday, 22 September 2006 13:59 (twenty years ago)

it's not a giant steps ref is it? i mean either way i'm siding with "keep it" but i'm afraid that way more so

― tom west (thomp), Friday, 22 September 2006 15:43 (twenty years ago)

in standard english usage one can use "checking out the talent" to mean "ogling the ladies of this particular geographical location". so i wanted to start a band called 'the talent'. then someone pointed out why that wasn't a good idea. so this is me calling no dibs at all on 'the talent'.

― tom west (thomp), Friday, 22 September 2006 15:44 (twenty years ago)

It's a Love Supreme ref.

― Jordan (Jordan), Friday, 22 September 2006 15:56 (twenty years ago)

Tom, I've usually heard it used as "the local talent", which would be an interesting band name, maybe.

― Casuistry (Chris P), Friday, 22 September 2006 16:34 (twenty years ago)

There's a local jazz-fusion band called "STEAK DINNER" so that people who see signs outside their venues will see "STEAK DINNER: $5." I don't know how many people have been pissed off because of this.

So, it would probably be bad mod form to delete the posts listing the ones i like, and call dibs on them myself, right?

I've been thinking about the theoretical band name "The Instant Lovers," and the first release would be called "Instant Gratification." If I can write like a dozen power pop songs it would be perfect, but I might just use that name for whatever my next project is

― genevieveglobally, Saturday, 6 June 2026 19:54 (five months ago)

I really like Mortgage Orgy. Frontman should stage name themselves Morty Georgie

Goontie, you have come up with so many awesome names between you and Stevie that could be band names that it almost feels moot for you, haha.
