After much consideration (and thanks all of you who suggested names!) the band finally met tonight (the entire band I should say) and looked over the list. It was agreed, after the drummer & lead guitarist made their suggestions, that the list be pared down to 4 choices, and we let "the people" decide.
Here are the choices:
RELIX
STEPPING STONES
TOSS UP
4 TRACK
Vote for which of these four names you like best... it is now in your hands... for real!

I like Rel-X spelling, but Relix works too.

Well Ice man, I went for the stepping stones. Why? I don't know really, just clicked better for me. :mickey:

I'm going with Stepping Stones, Ice. That just sounds like a great name for a group. I mean, since the greatest name-- "The Four Freshmen"-- is already taken... you work with what you have left.

Relix, on the other hand.... well, let me just say that if a person does it right the first time there is no reason to re-do anything. Cough cough.

Ricks (who is not your stepping stone... well, unless you want me to be, dear)

Stepping Stones sounds like Rolling Stones (my friend's fave magazine) and... something else I can't recall :D I voted for that one :cloud9:

Rel-X is good name too, but it doesn't really make sense to me :blush:

And 4 Track is a good name too. It reminds me of music when I'm skipping songs and tracks, so it relates well. :)

Toss Up is cool too, but.. Toss up what? ;)

I just knew that there'd be some confusion on the pronunciation of "Relics"! And to clear things up; I have a tendency (for the most part) to always get it right the first time!
We seem to have a tie so far?!? I hope this resolves itself so we can have a name before the end of the week! Thanks all for your help so far!!

But I am such a pretty relic! Really I am, just look at the pictures!
As for "when the polls will be closing"? Looks like we'll leave this running until Friday. I gave the guys the results the other night... including the disappointing showing of the names they had come up with. Their response? "Huh... Y'mean somebody actually voted for my name? Cool."

From the bottom of my ancient rock-n-roll heart & on behalf of the fella's in the band, we would like to THANK ALL OF YOU for helping us make this decision!!
You guys ROCK!!

Thank You Thank You... Thank You Very Much!
Front row seats? Need to be hooked up? Well, I doubt we'll be coming to a venue near anyone out there anytime soon, but I may have the next best thing:
My boss (the Program Manager/Director of Experiential/Activity Therapies) mentioned that the hospital will be holding it's annual Spring Fling sometime in the next couple of months, and that usually a DJ is hired for the Street Party that day. She "hinted" that it sure would be nice if we would play this year. So I asked the band & they said sure. So were working out details... but here's were I might be able to hook y'all up; If I can pull it off, I'm gonna try and have someone video the show & for the peeps who actually voted for Relix (sorry everybody else) if we can put it together we will try to send a DVD of the show to ya as a Thank You!! Will fill you in when I have more details...

Yay! My vote finally counted and I may win something too!

Oh, maybe I should go buy a lottery ticket.

I loved the name Relix. Any Canadian may remember a show (Beachcombers) in which "Relic" was the name of a goofball character. That guy had the best facial expressions, expecially when he was being hateful.

WOOT! I hope you and your "relix" band have loads of fun. I am sure you guys are great. I can hear you practicing all they way from my house. WHAT A RACKET! :)

Did, you can hear us all the way up in Boston? Dang! I knew we wuz loud, but that's just plain silly!
Out of about 115 songs we've tossed at each other, we've settled on a list of 41 (with options of going as high as 50) to focus in on to tighten up for the next several sessions. Tonight we worked over & over & over & over & over on getting harmonies down tight, then we'd play the song all the way through 2 or 3 times to see how it sounded. So soon my peeps, soon....

115?! Wow ice! I can't even do "Mary Had A Little Lamb" right on the old guitar! :D

I used to joke (after nearly 15 years away from playing with an actual band) that I'd probably forgotten more songs than most musicians these day will ever learn! In truth though, back during the 80's when I was with OFF LYMITZ, our song list hit around 200 cover tunes plus the 20 or so songs we had written & recorded that we peppered sets with. I've found that after 15 years I'm struggling a bit to relearn what used to be second nature... but boy, is this some fun!!!!! :rocker:

UPDATED INFO (or "why do we only see Ice around closing nowadays??")
Our first "show" has been set for Memorial Day... about a 2-3 hour show/Block Party. As for videotaping the event: we're trying to work out the logistics of such a possibility, as there are potential confidentiality issues that could arise (if patients wander into camera range.) If we get clearance, then we'll do the video... if not, then something else will (promise) be rewarded to the good voters as soon as we can figure it out.
Man, I've got bad blisters & callouses on my fingers!!!

Personally, I find making it a "Patients get free relix mask" day is the best plan of attack. Just make it a non-smoking concert as well!!! As for the blisters, better on your fingers than your feet! (blasted basketball) I can't wait,ice man.

Free Relix masks? Nah, free Varcity masks... even I would be tempted to wear one of those!!
And non-smoking? I am a non-smoker, but that is something our patients live for (especially when they are allowed outside.) I'll just have me a few fans strategically placed behind me to blow any smoke away... :thumbsup:
