    Cool, a lot of local bands I see. Makes more sense now.

    Nig Heist sounds like some kind of band formed of the Aryan Race.

    "vast" is an understatement

    do you gravitate to out of the ordinary music? do you have mainstream music in your collection? how many cds in your collection?

    Throw in a little history as to the origin of some of the great band names:

    Three Dog Night - Inspired by an Australian Aboriginal custom of sleeping with a dog for warmth on a cold night - a three dog night would be very cold, plus the band had 3 lead singers.

    Steely Dan - taken from William Burrough's book Naked Lunch. In it Steely Dan is the nickname given to a giant steam-powered dildo (see cover photo on their first album)

    Foo Fighters - a term used by World War II pilots to describe strange flying fireballs they sometimes saw.
