Name for my new band

gmku · 04.24.2008, 07:49 AM

I'm thinking of starting a band that's sort of retro 60s/early 70s, quasi-Doors/VU/Stones. The first name that came to me was Scream of the Butterfly (from a Doors song). Also The Mindbenders.

Any other suggestions?

but why did you use "the" only for the sticks?

'Cause The Sticks and The Stones sounds like two bands in one.

Maybe just Sticks & Stones

& for the record, it's not a tribute band. Just based loosely on that 60s sound. We'll do covers but not in a tribute kind of way and strive for our own material, our own look, etc.

Probably a little long, and a little off-target. I don't want to convey the sense that we're not aware of music beyond the 60s. That's not the point at all.
