L. Marcus Posted October 27, 2013 Report Share Posted October 27, 2013 De lyckliga kompisarna ("The Happy Chaps") was a punk group in the Nineties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted October 27, 2013 Report Share Posted October 27, 2013 Punk bands were usually good for incongruous names. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L. Marcus Posted October 27, 2013 Report Share Posted October 27, 2013 The Empire, Ebba Green, The National Theater (they were more prog than punk), Dag Vague ... Criminal Meatloaf ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L. Marcus Posted October 27, 2013 Report Share Posted October 27, 2013 Youngest bro and his friends had a punk band. The rhythm guitarist (which is superfluous for most punk bands) hadn't rehearsed a song -- he remembered this mid-concert -- and was told "Just play E! Pump E!"

Cancer Posted October 27, 2013 Report Share Posted October 27, 2013 In Austin circa 1980, the punk bands all played "Get Out of Denver" as fast as they could, like it was a speed competition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L. Marcus Posted October 27, 2013 Report Share Posted October 27, 2013 In Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World, a band plays a song that's not even two seconds long. The title took more time to say. "I am so sad, so very very sad." The lyrics went "SO SAD!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted October 27, 2013 Report Share Posted October 27, 2013 I am surprised more bands didn't perform "Sodomy" from the score of Hair, which at 50 seconds long would make a fine little number. Might be too melodic for the punk genre is all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazza Posted October 28, 2013 Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 New World Jackals would be great name for a rock band. what about Psychic Chicken for a name of a rock band? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lemming Posted October 28, 2013 Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 And off to Seattle after we drop Atlas off at his new home in Pasco. atlas_131027_01_lr by lemming552, on Flickr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted October 28, 2013 Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 I've been to Pasco. It's a dump. Nice-looking cat, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemming Posted October 29, 2013 Report Share Posted October 29, 2013 I've been to Pasco. It's a dump. Nice-looking cat, though. It's nicer than Yakima. Atlas is now in his new home and we're at my wife's aunts house in Seattle with this cat who is a foster from Purrfect Pals from Arlington. thunderbird_131028_01_lr by lemming552, on Flickr If I was in town longer than tomorrow, I'd want to meet up with you and Vondy, but maybe some other time.

Cancer Posted October 29, 2013 Report Share Posted October 29, 2013 It's nicer than Yakima. Just about everywhere is nicer than Yakima. I can think of a few places that aren't ... Ypres in 1915, Pulkovo Heights in 1943, McGuire AFB at all times for all history, Jornada del Muerto in late July 1945 ... but you have to look hard. lemming 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted October 29, 2013 Report Share Posted October 29, 2013 BTW, Lemming, Animal Talk Rescue in Seattle seems to be imploding organizationally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemming Posted October 29, 2013 Report Share Posted October 29, 2013 Bummer. Animal rescue is a tough thing to keep going. Tons of egos and it seems rare to find an organization with a smooth transition team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted October 29, 2013 Report Share Posted October 29, 2013 Well, they've lost their lease, and the board seems to have lost confidence in the person who was really the core of the operation -- well, aside from volunteers, she IS the operation (though if some of the things I have heard are true, she may be going off the deep end some, in which case the loss of of confidence is justified).

lemming Posted October 30, 2013 Report Share Posted October 30, 2013 When one person is the operation, and no good transition is in place, that is an issue. At least the board is sounding like they might be doing something. Yakima, not as bad as Pahrump.
