Gray and rainy -- that's the Seattle June we know and love. But if it's getting you down, these band names will pick you right up:
Dirty Neon
I'm not sure you could get more perfect for an opening act at the Blue Moon. Classic and grimy all in one.
Eyelids
Removing a body part from context imbues it with equal parts comedy and horror.
If Penguins Could Fly
. . . orcas would have to invent surface-to-air missiles.
Scars on 45
Does anyone younger than me even get the pun? This cleverly subverts and darkens the sunny disco-ized medley of '60s pop hits.
Vienna Bass Choir
One word makes all the difference. Whether low strings or fish, you couldn't get much further from little boys singing sacred choral music.
Naming a band is an act of concentrated creative expression. Square Pig in a Round Hole exists to reward five favorite band names each week. Winners are listed alphabetically. Selection is wholly unscientific and subject to whim, with a bias toward wordplay, humor, and local flavor. In most cases, I won't know anything about the bands at the time of selection. Thanks to the Seattle Times club listings for abundant source material!
