Default How to make your own band!
This has been going around Facebook lately. Create your own band and album! Lots of fun with some interesting and hilarious results...also allows to to flex your creative muscles!

Try it out!!

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.


Here is mine:

As I side note, I clicked on the first Wiki link again for the fun of it and got "Edmonton Municipal Election, 1952." Somehow I doubt that band name would catch on as well. lol

This one really speaks to me...

That's funny.

The name of my band is "The Monkees."

I suspect our success will be short lived.
