NOTE: this was the first of the NO REFERENCING EXISTING BAND NAMES rule. It was becoming too much of a crutch. Way too easy to go there and we’d get 10 if the same ones. It was stale and I needed to up the difficulty. I’m sure you’ll see they’ve gotten much smarter, surprising and funnier since the rule.
