Rapeman is bad enough (a band name, the music is quite good) that even Steve Albini wishes he could take it back.
I thought about bringing that up. I'm glad to hear that Albini regrets it now.

Hello,

Larry, Daryl, and Daryl....good band name or bad band name?

To qualify this, no one in the alleged band is named Larry or Daryl.

I'd say they're trying too hard to be clever, but not succeeding. B-Sharps territory.

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.

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.
