the best band on earth

[crisgal]

My brother used to say that when he grew up he would start a band and call them "Shades of genius" - something he now denies ever saying!

If you started a band what would you call yourselves and why?

[smudge]

The Miracles - only cos I can't sing!

[Robinia]

Brilliant smudge, I'll be one of you backing non-singers! I was thrown out of the school nativity because I couldn't 'ting' the triangle at the right moment!

[johntheplamf]

Wasn't the Miracles Smokey Robinsons band?

[smudge]

Well then mine would be Smudgey & The Miracles!

[3Styler]

call your band 'the beatles' and then get ina big lawsuit and get loads of publicity and then be forced to change your name to 'the beetles' and everyone will have heard of you and it would make life alot easier. unless you lost alot of money in the lawsuit...

or call your band the dyslexic seven and have six members and everyone will spend ages wondering who the seventh member is.

[smudge]

Robinia - we'd make a right Cats Chorus! (Mind you the real Smudge was a cat)!

I was in the school choir & could sing quite well - that is until we had to sing Silent night in German. I'd just learned all the words, but then my friend & I got a fit of the giggles. We were given two chances to stop which made it worse - then were sent off stage!
