the pomeranians

i've always liked the idea of trying to get a band that doesn't exist popular by word of mouth. maybe set up a website with pictures, quotes, reviews and mp3's that don't work, maybe even sell some merchandise. so keep an eye out for the pomeranians, they're on the rise!

Salmon Poppy and the Olive Fucks

I was a Teenage Father of three
Bastards of the Ridiculous Underworld of Tree Farmers

except A$$ wouldn't be dollar signs. I only did that because of the stupid anti-curse word thing.

yeah, i didn't think you were ripping it off or anything, it's the former name of the blow. i was going to suggest you use it as a song title but i see you've already decided that. a song with that title has the potential for some great fun.

Refrigerated Crunk is excellent...I imagine Lil' Jon popping out of a refrigerator. Get the hell out of the way of the volcano was a great name too, albeit a lengthy one.

Actually this name was not thought of by one person but came up in a conversation somehow and was introduced as much needed band name for more than one starting band, but was soon left behind the critically acclaimed Ray Zuroski, only to be resurrected later by much more fitting musicians.

Not that I'm trying to discredit BigBlackSmoke or anything.

I used to have this friend in high school who would make fun of bands like Taking Back Sunday and would make up names for other "emo bands", as he called them. Some of them included:

- See you next Thursday
- Without a Seatbelt
and something like
- Smashed butterfly on the windshield (that one was from a bus trip)

He started making up songs for them too and some of them were absolutely hillarious.
