Album meme
I try to resist memes, I really do. But this one from flynngrrl caught my attention, and it's kind of scary how reasonable the results are.

1 - Go to 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: http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3. The last four words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album.

3 - Go to flickr's "explore the last seven days" http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days/. Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

Put it all together, that's your first album.

This is really far more entertaining than it should be.

Huh. That actually works remarkably well. Frightening!

Martin Hirsch - "By A Simple Smile", with this image.

Edward Hallstrom - "You'll Be Tested", with this very appropriate image.

Croatia at the 2008 Olympics - "Judge Only Their Actions". This cover.

This was more fun than most! Mine failed, I'm afraid. I'll have to try again:

"Or Even A Duty" is an excellent album title.

A picture of dead leaves hanging off a tree with a layer of frost would make a good album cover.

But "Georgia Institute of Technology College of Engineering" is a very cumbersome name for a band! Maybe I can shorten it to Gitcof or something.

Yours would work even better as a travel brochure: "Vilkitsky Island: be changed by it!"

Thanks, but there's no way I'd ever have a band called "June 18, 2005".
