Yeah...

At the moment, we are called The Orgasmic Hellos, current favourite is for replacementism is Broken Verb.

We're an indie rockish band and the name needs to 'make you smile', or so Fabio says...

Any better ideas?

I have an idea for my own band's name. However, I don't have, and probably never will have, a band. Therefore there's a perfectly good name going to waste:

Crusty Tissue Overdrive.


I'll let you have it for 5% of any and all future earnings.
