The first name I thought of was rejected out of hand by everyone.....so....
My guitar player and I are forming an acoustic duo to perform out during the week for money...this is actually pretty lucrative.....we are both old school metal guys at heart and this project will be a little more rock, not heavier but acoustic versions of rock songs, albeit songs people will know
with of course of few mandatory Eagles Jimmy Buffett crap thrown in....
I really like the name Unplugged Exiles. What do you think of that name and how about helping me out with some suggestions?
Hmmm. The dynamic duo has been taken, soooooo. Let me think about it.
Umm...
Two Man Acoustical Band
Get it?! Ok, I'll leave you alone...
Powerless Pair
Ampless Anarchists
How bout
The Beech wood acoustic project
The f holes-- (I always wanted to use that for our own CW bluegrass group but got voted down by the Christian Coalition)
Tone on Tone
East Appalachian Touring Musician's Ensemble (its an acronym)
Here's another idea: Simon and Garfunkel
Too Much Acid in the Sixties
(The abridged version of above:) Flash Back (alternate:) Burned Out
Writing on the Wall
Two Old Farts Who Can't Give It Up
Two Men and a Guitar
Yesterday's Exiles
Lost Abandon
Pass the Hat
Rations of Time
Oh! Oh! I have a great idea!
Is your friend fat, bear? Because if he is, by using a clever play on words, you can call your band....
Haurel and Lardy
Hahahahahahahahahhahahahah. Whew.

and as long as we still look good, sound good, and can make 50K(APIECE) a year part time doing it, hell, why would we quit?

unfortunately we are both thin....
I thank you all for your suggestions...we gave serious consideration to farmermans wonderful acronym...but in the end it was too long. We found Pdiddies kind suggestion close to the truth but didn't think it would sell to the corporates.....so in the end we settled on my second choice, Unplugged Exiles. I know a lot of you have been worrying over this. We will have a website up soon as a sub domain of my bands website where you can look at the pics, read the bios, see the songlist and listen to some audio samples....the usual exciting stuff.....now it's on to the clubs and gimme more money please.
The Stones are touring again this summer and Mick Jagger is 61, Keith Richards is held together by congealed heroin, so I should have a few more years in me. I'm in good shape.
with all due respect "Unplugged Exiles" is to long, too intellectual for your target group, and somewhat unsuitably demeaning; how about something catchier, easier, and meaningles, but intriguing, like "Bi-Po+1" or better still "Bi+/-PO"
bogowo, if we called it
Poop it would probably be to intellectual for our target group but Bi-Po is a name which only has meaning in the cyber world of A2K.....out here in the real world I'm just Steve, semi retired rock God, loved by men and desired by women.....with an equal amount of respect to you....let's don't overthink it.... :wink:
