The 'coz I can!

On THE second thought. They want a name for an alternative band, a popular genre. Most kids if they are not in to punk, or death metal or goth are in to alternative. Good for them, but since there are so many alternative bands and among those so few good ones they should not use THE but A or AN coz those bands seem to come like beer in a six pack.

A beer
A nother band
AN alternative band
A, Whatever

The Who Cares


The Who Cares That is the winner. IMO

No we are not making fun of alternative bands, we are making fun of alternative bands that can't come up with their own name. If a band can't come up with a name for themselves, what else can't they come up with? :)

Yes Jessica, it was a member (presumably a leader) of an "alternative" band (see the thread subject) who could not come up with a name for his own band.

No...I was saying that he could come up with alternatives. I have been following the thread. =)
