You could try taking some or all of the letters in your christian names and juggling them around. See what you come up with. A couple of suggestions, deuce 2's company.

Some great ideas at the mo everyone keep them comming in. I like Carlwalker's suggestion' Arcanuim' at the moment,but there all great ideas on here.
How about 'Exit' cos everywhere you play, you ll have your name up in lights........ :D
I suppose it depends on what sort of music you play?

Isn't that a part of the body?
Can't remember what affects it:-
is it cake,
heavy electricity,
oh can't remember, never mind.
[edit]
looked it up:
<best Noel Edmonds Voice>
"Cake affects a part of the brain known as Shatner's Bassoon".
Priceless.
But it seems several bands already use this name, post Brass Eye I wonder?

Aah Yes..........
Kelvin Flats (http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/showthread.php?s=&threadid=3525) was the name of the drummer for Don Valley and the Rotherhides. They were a rockabilly band from Sheffield; I went to a few of their gigs in the late 80s.
Who else was there? I seem to remember Brocco Bank played banjo! Can't remember the other's names.........they were all something to do with local placenames. At one gig I went to, Kelvin didn't show up; so the band asked for volunteers from the audience. My mate got up on stage to play the drums for one song. When they asked him what his name was, he replied........."Heeley Bottom"!!!!!!!
The song I can remember the most is "Thatcher's Dead"........Quality!!! Do any other viewers remember any of this or did I just dream it?!!!!

SaxonLeigh 19-11-2003, 15:53 no sorry mate dont understand that, never heard of the band!
Agent Dan 19-11-2003, 15:54 God, Saxon! I haven't heard them in ages... How about "Badgers of fire"? or maybe "Horizons"? (doesn't mean anything but sounds deep!)
