Good name. Does what it says on the tin.
Ah, that's why laxative packages all say "Dave Matthews Band" on them. Mystery solved!

As bad as Goo Goo Dolls is, I will go one more with my shitty local band: Hootie and the Blowfish.
At least I’ll always be able to claim Rick James when it comes to local Buffalo acts that made a name for themselves.

I recently read his Wikipedia page. Shit, the guy really had a crazy life – just an endless string of weird incidents and unexpected connections. He’s buried about 5 miles away from me.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rick_James
He was in an early band with Neil Young which is kind of crazy.

I've never been a fan of any group that ends with Band. Dave Matthews Band. Zac Brown Band. Charlie Daniels Band. I'm okay with the Jimi Hendrix Experience, however.

I was going to actually mention them by saying that while I don't like group names that end with Band, I like The Band.

The B-52's.

Great band (mostly), completely wrecked by that unnecessary apostrophe. :shifty:

Great choices.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Yet The Blowfish could be passable—lame, but passable—but that Hootie part sends it into oh-fuck-off territory.
Exactly. A fairly nondescript name turned horrible by a need to be pointlessly cute.
Some tasty tunes tho :cool:

Cracked Rear View gets all the play but the real heads know fairweather Johnson was the more complete album.
