I went early -- around 11:00 -- and stayed until 1:30. Rain started just when I got home.  Only hear one band -- not sure which one.  Pretty good.  Ate lunch and bought candles, etc.  The nun who sells  divine -- literally 'divine!' --pastries was there and I bought one of each to take home.  During my 2 hr stay -- only saw a handfull of elected officials -- but, all in a good mood. 
Was not sure when HalfFast was to play -- or what kind of music they play.  Name just amused me.
If you are not part of the solution -- you are part of the problem.

I think they played between 12:00 and 2:00 - so just around the time you were there...musta been them playing -

Something to consider:
A newish wrinkle to band naming conventions. It must be google-friendly. Common words, plays on words and other traditional choices can hurt a band's
outlook.

Even if you're just looking to play around the neighborhood, you want people to come out and play while you play, otherwise, no pay.

It's really tough to google The Who, Yes or the Guess Who, and almost impossible to use subtle innuendo without getting 3,415,627 hits linking to porn.

I have an old friend who play(s)ed in the New Fun Band. I've heard they still get together once in a while, but fat chance of finding them.

That said, I've always been partial to the name "Velocitized". That wouldn't suit if you're playing torch songs, but...

Yo Beans;

If you decide to go with a band name, culled from a BTFer, will you pay royalties? Or will you even let us know what name you've chosen, if you haven't already chosen one?

Well, I think we're gonna stick with Amazing Headgear. I'm not happy with it but hey, I'm just the drummer...

The drummer's the one who usually needs the headgear

News Flash!!!

Amazing Headgear doesn't cut it. We're too old for such foolishness (What?).

Suggestions again please...

If you guys were doin' straight up rock-n-roll I'd say something like "The Rooks" or "The Stray Dogs" ... but with the whole prog thing, you need something poetic or mystical ... stuff like  "As the Crow Flies" or "Empirical Eye" or "Loki's Left Hand".

Or, you could use one of these Band Name Generators ... good for an occassional laugh at least.

Are all the band members from Berwyn? You could go with a name that is near and dear to this city...something like "The Loose Pitbulls"...or "seething Pitbulls"...or "Gangsta Pitbulls"...or "Garage Grafitti"...or "The Laundromats"

Only you Bonster...only you...no one else would be so detail oriented to do such a thing...what'd you go through every post, copying and pasting?!?! How tf did you arrange that looooong list? Tell me it's not in chronological order too...you are one funny dude

 I'm surprised at all of you. Especially you Bonster. None of you came up with this name. The Berwyn Banners! Or the Spindles. If you go with the Spindles you can have your own version of it on stage. Instead of cars you can have a Les Paul,a Strat, a Rickenbacker,a Charvel, and top it off with a Zildgian crash cymbal.
