BassTractor Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 (edited) Maybe choose something people can remember. I gather this varies for different people, but personally I only remember The Gr'80s and Neon Yuppie Coke Machine from this thread. Kudos to @Chiliwailer and @2elliot for those.

"Neon Yuppie Coke Machine" is genius, the clear winner of this thread, nothing can beat that name!

"How about referencing something iconic from the eighties?" yea anything i think it has to have "UK" in it to show its an all uk band show, and also to show that its pop based maybe something catchy to say uk 80s pop show, you get the idea. Neon Yuppie Coke Machine, 80 Cans of Hairspray haha :-) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
