If I had a band ...


... this meme would tell me what we should be named. And what our first album should be called.

And, from this, it sounds like I'd kinda into Folk music. Or references to Emerson (which is rather cool. Good ol' Ralph Waldo).



And, yes, I did totally cheat on the picture. Sorry, Bri, but whenever I tried to use the one I was assigned by the meme, it showed up MINISCULELY tiny (total repetition, I know). 

So I chose the one I liked best. I liked that I got a quote by Emerson. That made me happy. And, hey! I got to learn about a Danish poker player ... could be way worse.

So, if anyone wants to do this (since y'all know how I am about tagging people), here are the rules. Just let me know, so I can see everyone's cool album covers!

1 - Go to Wikipedia. Hit “random”
or click http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random
The first random Wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.

2 - Go to Quotations Page and select "random quotations"
or click http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3
The last four or five words of the very last quote on the page is the title of your first album.

3 - Go to Flickr and click on “explore the last seven days”
or click http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days
Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

4 - Use Photoshop or similar (i.e. MSPaint) to put it all together.

And, I'll add that if a picture or something isn't working for you, go ahead and change it. Use that artistic license. I give you total permission. ^_^

My band would be called, "Phthalate 4,5-dioxygenase", our album would be named, "To dwell always in externals', and the picture is a really cool looking photo of Union Station. If I ever have a band, I am totally doing this to name and design the album covers! I might pick another band name, though. :)

You've got a point, this is NOT a bad way at all for creating an album cover.

And, yeah, as cool as your pretend band's name is, it is rather hard to pronounce. ^_^

Phthalate4,5-dioxygenase! Rockin' it old school!

It's funny you mentioned the Relief Society thing because this Sunday, I settled into my seat thinking, "Finally, I can actually pay attention to the lesson!" I had even prepared and done my reading ahead of time instead of during Sunday School! The teacher came in at the last minute with her son in tow. Apparently he had his tonsils out and tubes put in his ears just days before and was all hopped up on painkillers. Her son spent the entire lesson sitting on the floor under the table and talking to everyone on her saved numbers list on her cell phone using the speaker option! The only thing I got out of that lesson was a cookie from a tray that was passed around!
