Imagine a world where banks and insurance companies could have as much fun with their names as pot stores and game studios. Until that day, we'll always have rock bands such as these:
Anti You
It's personal.
The Janitors of Chaos
Glad to know somebody's on the job; I hope they get overtime.
Monsterwatch
Either some serious sentry duty or a very unusual tourist activity. Googling this name also turns up lots of places to buy oversized timepieces.
Tales from the Birdbath
It may seem trivial, but if you pay any attention to birds, you know they're full of drama and trash talk.
Weapons of Minor Disruption
Not destructive, merely spiteful. A bomb that knocks out the cable for an hour just as the game gets exciting, or makes the guitar amp buzz during an intricate solo.
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!
