My friend and I need help naming our band!
« on: 15 May 2007, 04:02 »

My friend and I are starting up a musical project. He writes lyrics and I do the music. We have been talking about actually getting the project up and running with a myspace at very least, but we need a name before we can do that. I'll send him the results after the poll's over.

OKAY GO!

I cannot believe Starfighter hasn't been taken yet. If it hasn't; fucking Starfighter already. Why is there a poll?

Yeah, we need some kind of idea that it's going to be like. Otherwise you'll end up with a name like 'Pussywillow Fitzkill' and be on stage playing avant-noise. No wait, that'd be a fucking awesome name.

The only problem we see with Starfighter is that it may or may not already be trademarked by the Lockheed corporation (GIS "F-104 Starfighter" and you will not only see why it was suggested but also why it might cause us trouble).

Fine fine fine, looking at how things are going in the polls right now combined with the fact that my mate finally made a name decision, I will rename my current project Starfighter and the new band will be The Deadphones.

If you want to be taken seriously, you have to make sure to put a "The" in front of Starfighter.

DO NOT USE THE NAME STARFIGHTER. It will make people think of Fighstar who are a terrible band.

I'm pretty sure you can use The Beatles. They haven't been together for like 40 years.
