text: what is a good name for a begining band?   names of bands should come naturally by something meaningful to the members. also consider your particular style of music and something you all have in common.   here's a short little story about a band name. for awhile this band was called the project, then later reloaded as a sort of joke since 2 of the members were in a band called loaded. one day, while the band was watching a movie the word "revoultion" came onto the screen. naturally this jogged the memory of one of the members to a beatles album, so he said another one "revolver." then the singer put "black vevlet" in front of it. they later xed out the "black" and became a very excellent band with a fitting name "velvet revolver." beautiful and dangerous, just like the band.
