    It is a semi-famous saying in Houston. A strange TV reporter personality says it all loud during his resturant health inspection segments. He's been doing it so long they've got sound effects and graphics whenever he says it, it is crazy.

    A Google search reveled it is already taken by a local band.

    I have seen it on TV in Houston many times. Marvin Zindler. I remember that I saw it on the news when his wife died. He must be like 90 years old, no?

    IROC: Actually, I like Analog, but I've heard at least one other band with that name. Plus, it is the type of name that lends itself to either roots-type bands that really ARE analog or digital/techno bands that are the exact OPPOSITE of analog. We're neither! :) Definitely a cool idea, though.

    You did bring up something interesting, though. I've always liked names that sound like vintage stereos, radios, etc. I loved the band name American Hi-Fi. Stuff like that just seems cool. So, you were definitely on the right track when you posted all those stereo-related terms. :)

    I don't know about anything with "Garage", because that is also a style of music, one which you apparently not really represent (see, e.g., http://www.garagemusic.co.uk/ - warning, for some reason there is a little cartoon of a scantily clad lady on that site, even though that has nothing to do with the rest of the site).

    For something with garage....someone has probably already suggested...

    Garage Sale.

    Vinyl Retentive

    It's a name of a compilation out of Berkeley. I've always thought it would make a cool band name.

    The 8 Tracks?........ that kind of sucks.
