[quote name='Buzz' post='83763' date='Nov 4 2007, 11:43 PM']So to summerise, Lush is a no-no for your band name chap.[/quote]


ha ha well ...
Nottotally as you coud incoporate Lush into your band name such as
B'Lush or B:Lush
S'Lush
F'Lush
P'Lush P'Lushie
K'Lush

Then as a part of the name such as

Orange Lush
Lush Hamster
Lush-o-la
Lush Pelt

B'lush, Baby

Oh Baby That's [i]Lush[/i]!

Loads of lush options

[Musky]

Sticking 'Lush' into bandnamemaker.com comes up with lots of possible variations.

Lush Union
The Lush Conspiracy
Dry Lush
Lush Explosion
Psycho Lush


I thought Lush Panda was quite funny. But maybe not Aroused Lush and the Beaver. ^_^

How about if I change the spelling to "Lush puppy's"

Thought we were on to a winner there ... and one that many of us .. er more convex members might associate with .. then Answers.com turned up this subtle bit of marketing

"Fat Rascal
A Fat Rascal is a type of cake, similar to the scone in both taste and ingredients. The Fat Rascal often has no definitive shape and is relatively easy to make. First baked in Elizabethan times and originating from Yorkshire, they have enjoyed many varieties since. The cake shares its name with a band who recently formed in bob the West Yorkshire hill-top village of Heptonstall. Their playlist includes covers of a number of 20th century chart hits by the likes of Oasis, The Jam, The Beat and many more."

Thats oldish though and there's no web presebnce I can find for them (or their search engine optimisation is cr@p, always a possibility...

I think this is a winner .. Betty's has

but you could have
[url="http://www.fatrascalrock.co.uk/"]http://www.fatrascalrock.co.uk/[/url]
or
[url="http://www.fatrascalband.co.uk/"]http://www.fatrascalband.co.uk/[/url]

yeah I can see the whole band marketing thing ...
the only possible fly in the ointment is that Betty's may get grumpy if you use the name and, of course, only around Yorkshire will it not imply you are rotund Billy Bunter type people in ill fitting school outfits and caps ...
