Title: Counting with band names
Post by: Alps on October 03, 2014, 12:27:54 AM
Rule: You may only post one band name per turn. Someone else has to go next with the next highest integer.
Rule: Please try to come up with this on your own without using Google.
Non-rule: Number can be spelled out or as a symbol.
Rule: Homophones not allowed. "Won" for one, "Too" for two, etc. Sorry.
Non-rule: If you have band names with things like "e" or "pi", go ahead if you like.

God, we're just shitting all over rules tonight.

Ooh, blasphemy.


Since Fab 6 isn't a band, I give Laura Eve 6. That leaves seven... Seven Mary Three. Go.

You cheated by looking it up. If someone else knows one, they can chime in.

I do have a legit 16 and 17, though. So someone please post a 14 and 15 :)

(my 16 is an 80's tribute band and my 17 is a british band from the 80's)

They would only have had 2 minutes to do so (between the previous post and NE2's post).

That was what Alps planned on posting, but NE2 beat him to it.

Carbon 14.

Heard about them from a friend who visits the Delaware beaches on a regular basis. I have never heard any of their music.

Catch 22

Years ago (probably the late 90s) I was listening to an interview that a local radio station (106.3 "Modern Rock at the Jersey Shore" I think...) was having with the band and one of the band members seemingly convinced the young interviewer that a man named Joseph Heller had written a biography about them.  The interviewer actually told everyone to go out and buy the band's bio "Catch 22".  I don't think she got it.
