[Harp-L] RE: Band names

["Hellerman, Steven" <shellerman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The punk bands always had the most outrageous names, like The Slits, and
the Circle Jerks. Currently, there's a psycho-billy band called the
Pabst Smears. Yeah they always drink that kind of beer.

There was a western swing band that played at the Swallows Inn in San
Juan Capistrano, CA that called themselves "Buck Naked and the Chapped
Cheeks".

I was briefly in a CW band (mostly fretted instruments and one
harmonica) trying to find a name.  My suggestion of "Stan and Them Other
Pluckers"  was rejected.
