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!

How do I get a cool icon like yours? Obviously "cool" is subjective, but you can have your own icon displayed here by signing up for a gravatar. Note that I currently accept up to an R-rated icon though that may change in the future.

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?

I think that this is a hoot.
My favorite so far…
Band name: The Ketchup Effect
Album name: Eventually Leads to Success
I also got;
Band name: Protected Areas of Tasmania
Album name: With My Net Income
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….
