What and Why?
I often have conversations, read/hear news stories, and random thoughts that make me think: "That would be a great name for a band." And, well, here are the results--good, bad, or indifferent. I was never in an actual band... But if I were, these would be that band (this would be those?).

The sound stylings of - The Soultunes

Monday, January 12th, 2009

If I were in a 50’s Doo Wop group, my band name would be The Soultunes. We would also have had a few small hits with Motown in the 60’s.

Later the only surviving member (please let it be me) would change the name to SoulTune and play contemporary jazz-hip hop with righteous songs of political and social commentary… or maybe weddings.

Chicklet - All Girl Band (and me!)

Thursday, January 8th, 2009

The Ocelots

Friday, January 2nd, 2009

If I were in a band that was for kids, my band name would be The Ocelots. We would have cornered the very sizable children’s music market in the late 90s. Let’s face it, kids love the animals… our albums would have names like Rock-a-lot with The Ocelots, and Ocelot Rock
