OMG Ben Boyer, my mom totally did stuff like that too! only it was TV-related, so she'd tell me stuff like "That Big Audio Dynamite was on CNN this morning" and sometimes she'd write it down to remember it. I love my mommy

When The Kills and The Stills played on the same bill round our way I thought it a high watermark for unimaginative shit. I didn't even go to see them

Bands that sometimes use "the" and sometimes don't, such as (The) Smashing Pumpkins.

'The Kills' strikes me as a particularly empty and cliché name. They could be in an exploitation movie or something.

The Coldplay?

The Slipknots, no doubt.

has anyone said the band yet?

someone should name themselves 'the bands'. That would confuse people.

Unfortunately, I have friends in a band called The Rock & Roll Adventure Kids.

no "the" works good with Boredoms.

The Yards, who I saw last Friday supporting Love (see, no "The" there!), have such a terminally awful name that I forgot it seven times DURING THEIR GIG, even though I was holding one of their CDs in my hand at the time.

Their singer is Chris "I was in The Seahorses" Helme and their guitarist, if I'm not mistaken, is Paul Banks from Shed Seven. Nuff said, I think.

The Yards is nearly as bad as The Stands...I mean do they expect people to remember that? ffs
