It isn't (yet) raining on Folklife! Having ventured out to the Tractor last night for The Minus 5, Mikey and Matty, and Stag (great show!), we're skipping the festival in favor of yardwork and donating blood. Here are some well named bands who as far as I know are also not at Folklife:
Assuming We Survive
An ominous beginning -- or optimistic, depending on context. Either way, this group must be hard-core.
Demons Carry Symphonies
I suspect Berlioz knew this.
Hair and Space Museum
I love how the addition of a single letter transforms an inspiring institution into something laugh-out-loud ridiculous. Now I'm thinking of that video where an astronaut washes her hair in microgravity.
Organik Time Machine
Each of us has one, a meat sack carrying our consciousness inexorably into the future.
Whirr
Onomatopoeia names are always welcome! I'd like to see them on a bill with The Low Hums.
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!
