      If You could name your own band, what would it be?
      Feb 01, 2009 11:23:29 am
      Pretty simple, if you were the band leader what would you name it?  And why?

      Also, in your opinion what's the optimal number of band members?

      Do you think musicians get groupies no matter what kind of 'gig' (and I use the term loosely) they play?

      Why do you think bands break up?

      You don't have to answer all questions. 

      The reason I ask is cos I'm trying to write a script or book.  Can't decide.

      Thanks in advance. ;D

      My band on Guitar Hero is called Red Or Dead.  ;)

      Reckon 4 for a band is perfect, Bass, Guitar, Drums and Singer.

      Bands break up for loads of reasons, though the singer getting a big head is a common one! :D Or women otherwise! ;)

      :D No, nothing like that, I had a bass guitar when I was a teenager and played for a couple of years, but dropped it in the end.

      Didn't have a band, just played the music I liked.

      77 is right lead singers do tend to get above themselves its just happened to my nephews band.
      I myself like a horn section in a band the bigger the better but most bands tend to be 3 or 4.
      If I had a band i'd call it The Locals,all from Liverpool.

      I reckon Yo MoFo would be a good band name.

      Optimal number 3 for me.

      All bands get groupies - definitely. I reckon even Paul Potts has seen a bit of trailer action.

      Knights of Never - my gh4 band name, I flicked through them randomly until I found that. Or do what my mates band did and copy the name of a song as your band name my mates band 'High Voltage".
       You need 3 or 4, Drummer, Vocalist, Guitarist, and Bassist, but the Vocals dude can play guitar as well so then you only need three.

      Hero's , as most of my family are in the forces. And I support the men and women, who put their lives on the line.
      So I would name my band after them :)

      As I once had a band project, Shadows Prophecy. I actually had a band once, called Another Face (which didn't last at all, and anyway the name doesn't sound so good in english).
      The number of player depends on which music style you wants to play. Usually, 3 or 4 is just fine, but most the bands I listen to have 6: vocals, 2 guitars, bass, drums and keyboard.

      When I first picked up a guitar I was in a metal band called Iridium..........Iridium being a metal on the periodic table.


      Its nerdy and ever so sad ! :lmao:

      Now I play acoustic guitar and sing by myself and as I have no band, Im forced to go with just my name.  :f_zzz:
