29/11: How to name a band
Category: The Naming Machine
Posted by: michael
Most believe that great music is more inspiration than perspiration. They also like to believe that great band names come in much the same way. As if when four of more people get together with a common interest God takes notice and hangs a catchy little phrase out in the ether that is theirs for the taking. All they have to do is stare at the stars long enough or drink enough beer and that name will crystallize before their eyes. I think people believe this gives some creditability to the group.
I am here to tell you that is total bull. I am going to develop a mathematical formula that will generate the perfect band name. I believe that there is an undiscovered algorithm that when used correctly creates the ideal name for any group.
Naming a group is by far the most important thing its members can achieve. Even if they accomplish nothing else, and some never do, just establishing a good name will advance some groups to the heights of fame and fortune. Now I am going to prove that modern science can help any group achieve its goal of immortality via their name.
And how am I going to devise the greatest mathematical achievement since pie (yes, I meant the food. I love pie.)? "Hard work," you say? No. That is soooo naïve. Such genius can only be attained through some sort of miracle or a gift from an alien race. So I plan on drinking beer and staring at the heavens until it crystalizes into view.
Stay tuned.
