??!! Double Double Name Name Game Game
posted by on October 12 at 12:52 PM
So what’s up with all the double double name names band bands, or even triple name name name bands at that? In honor of this phenomenon, let’s play a game called Find the Fake Double Name Band Game—which one of these is a fake band?
(Note: Does anyone know what qualifies as a double-name band, for example: does having a word or sound in between the doubled word disqualify it from the category of double-name band? What do you think?)

I don't buy this for a second, this has Megan written all over it. Eric, could we get a post about how they play the same song when you're in the coffee shop, the drugstore and the dentist?
JUD JUD
How could you forget Duran Duran?! Also, I'm thinking the fake band is Cray Cray...
now way, that was all me! left coast, you're just jealous that nobody wanted you to write on the Line Out.
i will, however, refrain from writing about songs that are in my head when i'm traveling on the bus, or sitting in a trendy coffee shop etc.
Duran Duran!!!! ah, that was the one! i knew i was missing some obvious ones. yeah, you got it right about the fake one, you win bro.
Does Hot Hot Shit count?

The The
Hot Hot Heat (I wish there was a second Heat)
And, dude:
Tony! Toni! Toné!
That's like triple word score.
yes
Absolutely E, the level of banality that you have achieved I cannot master. And, if I'm tending the crease, I pick Cloutier as my backup and not Dryden. njoi
Xiu Xiu
Low Low Low La La La Love Love Love
Shout Out Out Out
When the fuck did I write about what song I heard at the dentist??
what about Double Double?
(pronounced dew-blay dew-blay)
how soon we forget...
I'm convinced that every time there is a double word name it's a Catch-22 reference.
The day I told you to start wearing a hat because the sun was obviously softening up your brain.
I thought it was the dentist, maybe it was the gynecologist.
Vegetable Lasagna, is that you?! I wondered where you went! Welcome back.
Nicely played, Ms. Seling. I got tired of the fact that people didn't understand the reference. You'll have to revise your shit-list appropriately.
i know were talking about band names here, but what about album titles like
"Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga"
and
"YoYoYoYoYoYo"
?
Another plant for Megan, c'mon? She covered that a couple weeks ago. Don't quote me on this, but I think she may have actually talked about the music on the album in that post (and not just about its funny name or what they were playing at the DMV when she was there last).
