The Rock Band Name Generator

Bill Harris posted a hilarious and surprisingly effective method of generating band names for EA’s game Rock Band among other things. I decided to slap together a script that automates the process. Go try it out!

    That is hilarious… I tried it a couple of times, and the best was: Band name: Headway Festival

    Album name: To Him His Own

    This is the dumpest thing I’ve ever seen, who the hell would have time to do something like this!! It must be some former telecom engineer with nothing better to do with their time. Guess who?

    If the counter starts going nuts, that might be my fault. I posted a link on another forum I frequent.

    That’d be a bingo…

    Bunch of sim-baseball geeks.

    I’ve now started making up my own artist and album names, just to give other guys that board grief. One guy’s company just got bought out, and is now working out of a different, faraway office. He hasn’t found a new place to live yet. He was bitching that his round trip back and forth to work cost him $17 in gas, so I posted an “album” by a band named “Get a Prius” Cracked myself up….
