mid-week mayhem

for the longest time, i thought when people talked about mayhem they were actually saying may-HAM. perhaps from growing up watching too many loony toons cartoons with porky pig. anyway, i just looked it up to be sure i was spelling it properly and i loved the definition: a state of rowdy disorder.

what a great phrase! it would be a good band name too. rowdy disorder. we are gonna catch 'rowdy disorder' tonight, opening for the 'orange and poppyseed cake incident' (another mythical band that lisa and i often refer to, and was in place might i add BEFORE the proper band 'string cheese incident' was alive).

anyway, i can't remember what i was actually going to blog about, but this diction business took me all off on a tangent. plus, i'm only working a half day today and we are celebrating clare's bday. plus going over to the bloxy's for dinner. the weather seems nice so it should be a good day.

it seems this post is begging me to have you leave comments with your favorite mythical band names. so if you have time, email me some or comment them. maybe i can do a top ten list. (marty this seems directly up your alley)

i'll leave a few:
1. horseshoe propellors
2. her sushi
3. the instamatics

so much pressure:

1. flannel muumuus
2. pocket-sized emolument
3. las turdistas (mostly because i think that turd is the funniest word to see written out and once you add -istas to anything, it's automatically fun.)

Oh dammit I can't come up with anything, not creative in the slightest. What is it with the Mako genes being all creative and good with stuff like this? M
