View Full Version : Game:Name a band with four or more words in the title.
EdnaKrabappe 05-09-2007, 12:04 AM Completely pinched from last night's Colin Murray but who cares?
Ok here's the rules:
post a band name with four or more words in the title....X and the X ones don't count
e.g. System of a down is a yes
Bob Marley and the Wailers is a computer says no.
So mine is:
System of a down.
