"Dildos In My Head" is a band that's fronted by Kitty. I play guitar. XChuck is our fan club manager. kl0pper is the drunk at every show. Rents? On drums. Wesley Snack is shakin that ass in the dance cage.

We are like Bon Jovi, only not so Italian.

We have DILDOS IN OUR HEADS.

We will rule the world. And in the end, you will wank us.

Let's see... how did that New Kids song my old band did go...

First time, I fucked Jordan
Second time, fucked Don
Third time, I fucked 'em both
Then I fucked John
Because they've got the WHITE STUFF
Shootin' all over the place, yeah,
They've got the WHITE STUFF
Shootin' it all in my face!

There was that one, and...

When you're in the mood
For a little romance...
Just jump on the couch
And use both your hands!
Don't worry about erection
Because it won't take long
We're a bunch of horny nerds
And we're singing you a song!

Jackin off... jackin off... jackin off...
IS IT HARD ENOUGH?

Such delightful lyrics, I think, really explain who I am today.

PS - "Debbie Gibson," "Tiffany," "Britney Spears," and "O Town" are all mine. Dang copyright infringement lawyers of power laws!

I found out an anagram of one of my friend's names is Arcana Devious so if he ever starts a band that's what he should call it.

If I ever start and indy band it's going to be called The Sellouts

And I'm still trying to come up with a name for this thing I've got about a band that doesn't play anything. It's just pure silence and marketing. I'm thinking Safety Last but I'm not sure.

Other potential band names that have been kicked around-
Presidential Cumrags
It's My Fucking Band and You Can't Play With It
Whatever (I'm surprised no one thought of this in the early 90s)
The Angry Faggots (there's a story behind this but it isn't very interesting)
The Unmemorable Debuts

[B]Little story: [/B] I actually had a band called Ire Locus, everyone thought it was a great name, but no one but me was actually sober enough to make it work, so we soon dissolved.

My first band was Uncle Anus, and they sucked too. People liked the name but though that the costumes were a bit much... and plus they didn't like the music. At all.

So, good band names eh?:

Arsen Unit

Economy of Soul

Declarations of Dependence
