Well only after about a month of rehearsals the Christian rock band I'm in has been invited to open for Ever Stays Red http://www.myspace.com/everstaysred when they play a block party that is being held in downtown Artesia on June 9th. Problem is we haven't honed in on a name as of yet.
We decided to hold a survey and most votes wins. The band is made up of 4 members from 2 different churches, so we are asking our congregations to vote this Sunday and I'm asking my fellow AstroSafarians to cast their votes as well. After the votes are tallied I'll tell you which one is mine. (Don't want you all to be biased!!)
I appreciate your input and if we get someone to video the event I'll post a portion of it here.
Thanx guys and gals!
trybe
(Oh yeah, trybe13 was pulled as a choice due to that being a personal vision of how I want to put some of my songs together as opposed to a group effort.)
You name the band!

Re: You name the band!
Are we allowed to make new names? or just vote on what you have there?? I believe those are all song titles or very close to them except for rising down...
how about...
biblical proportions
us against the world
pew
lords of rock
knocked up mary
I personally like Pew... It just works... sorry dont know much about religion other than pews and alters and preying... I will still vote on one of yours, but atleast take these into consideration... I am sure somebody else will be even more creative... if that is allowed

Re: You name the band!
We are trying to keep the name aimed towards Jesus without sounding religious. Biblical Proportions is waaay religious! And we are not about religion. Religion is all about following a set of man-made rules and customs. I cannot do that. I am all about a relationship with my Saviour. Talk to Him constantly, just like I'm speaking to you or anyone else.
Maybe a couple of the names need explaining. The other two are pretty obvious.
I Against I: Inspired by the Bad Brains tune. Meaning my biggest enemy is myself.
Rising Down: Jesus said to be the greatest in His Kingdom you have to be the least. To be first you have to be last. If you humble yourself, God will exalt you.

Re: You name the band!
Well after tallying the votes the name is.........(drum roll please)............
Occam's Razor :-k
All I can say is Google it if you are wondering what it is/means.
Thanks to the few of you who voted, but we decided to go with one of our own choosing. We are only using it for this show, then coming up with something else. Seems there is already a couple of bands using the name.

I like it Mr Rev Trybe. Sounds edgy & hip.
