Thee Jazz Hands

This is wandering of topic a bit, but does anyone have any idea where the use of "Thee" instead of "The" in band names comes from? I have always puzzled over this. It's a spelling that Genesis P.Orridge was fond of, but I don't know if it came from them.

I think it started with that stuckist bloke, can't remember his name though. I know Nardwuar is fond of it as well.

Hi all

Appealing to the collective wit of Basschat here!

Been asked last minute to put together a jazz trio for an awards dinner run by a large NI-based publication.

It's going to be a classy affair and we are doing 2 hours at the welcome drinks reception, all standards. Format is drums, piano and upright with some vocals.

Any ideas for a classy, cool, humourous or witty name? I am stumped and terrible at these things!

We are pretty young (mid 20s) and fresh so something modern would work too - we don't mind having a bit of fun with it!

I should add that part of the payment will be in the form of a full page advert in said publication.

Cheers all!
Danny
