What My Friends Do When They're Bored

"Every so often, a phrase comes up, and everyone goes "That would be a great band name..."

Or, well, maybe you're just bored.

Here's the (very loose) rules. Modify them as you need to do whatever it is you want. It's incredibly fun:

Note - you don't need Photoshop. Even Paint will get the job done."

1 - Go to "wikipedia." Hit “random”
or click http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random
The first random wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.

2 - Go to "Random quotations"
or click http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3
The last four or five words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album.

3 - Go to flickr and click on “explore the last seven days”
or click http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days
Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

4 - Use Photoshop or similar to put it all together.

5 - Post it with this text in the "caption"


An archive of previous creations. I have sweet dreams about these kinds of things...
