  1. Round And Round — David Bowie (or Chuck Berry)
  2. Black Eyed Dog — Nick Drake
  3. Wednesday Week — The Undertones
  4. The Lemsip Song — Led Zeppelin
  5. Our gowned-up hero is actually an undercover Roman Catholic scientist working under direction of the Pope in the top secret research laboratorium deep below the Papal Basilica of Saint Peter in the Vatican City. In the Eucharist Magnification experiment, scientific methods are used to electronically multiply the benediction beam, and exponentially amplify and concentrate the consecration field generated during the sacrament of the Eucharist. The objective of this experiment is to transubstantiate a loaf of sourdough bread into the reanimated head of the Messiah.
  6. Pictures Of Lily — The Who
  7. Polythene Pam — The Beatles
  8. Put Your Records On — Corinne Bailey Rae
  9. I like the Fender High Mass bridge as it looks a lot nicer thasn a BBoT. Any difference in tone/sustain/mojo I have noticed could have been due to taking the strings off and putting them back on, but there has never been a significant change for me. I have had an issue with BBoT bridges where the saddles needed to be set fairly far forward which resulted in them being susceptible to lateral movement. The Hi Mass fixed this issue.
  10. Wild Is The Wind — David Bowie
  11. The word "prescious" is an obsolete adjective meaning foreknowing or having foreknowledge, derived from the Latin "praescius". It's a word that is no longer in common use so I've removed it
  12. I've replaced the fade-in css animation, so instead of the unordered list fading in all at once, each list item fades in sequentially. I think this has a better visual effect and you're not waiting so long to start reading.
  13. There's a dark mode??? Where's the setting for that then?
  14. He can't, you agreed to outlaw them. Please try to keep up.
  15. I'll probably get bored of the confetti effect at some point, but I'm still enjoying it for now.
  16. I've just pushed a new update to bandname.uk that allows you to click on any of the entries to swap the order of the two words for that entry. The 'copy to clipboard' link should also reflect the swappage. I have removed a few unsuitable words that came up in testing, and still need to whittle down the word lists a bit more. I am leaving in *normal* sweary words for comedic effect at the moment, but if anyone looking at it comes across any words I have missed that could be used as slurs directed at a specific demographic, or similar undesirable words, please let me know.
  17. Titties and Beer — Frank Zappa
  18. "Personally Owned & Used" used for what? they've never been fitted to a bass
  19. I made an edit page that lists the words contained in the txt file in a huge form on the screen with a delete button next to each, plus a floating bit at the top with controls - a dropdown to select the txt file to edit, a dropdown to instantly jump to the words with a specific initial letter, an undo button (to reverse accidental deletions) and a save button to commmit the changes. It was designed to work best on my iPhone and anytime I'm half watching TV or listening to music I can go through a bit of one of the lists very easily. Its a bit like Macro Data Refinement — sometimes a word just 'feels' like it should be removed or kept.
  20. Thanks, I've kept several *unsavoury* words in for comic effect, but I've zapped 'migrant' now as can carry a bit of 'daily express' baggage. I'll probably do another sweep of the word lists at some point to tighten them up further
  21. Thanks for the heads-up. I've not been able to reproduce this on Safari MacOS 18.3.1, or whatever versions are on my phone & iPad, but I have added some additional header info into the page which might help. Can you do a hard reload of the page and see whether it is any better now?
  22. My 'Band Name Generator' is now up & running on its own domain: https://bandname.uk My two source lists currently have just over 17000 words in total, with a theoretical 130 million combinations. The original lists were just under double the current size and It is likely that I'll reduce the number of words further in the future to improve the quality of the generated names.
  23. Apologies, I wasn't intending to do a downer on it, I thought the list of source words was very interesting, and you seem to have collected all the pub rock cliche words.
