Awesome name. I have to disagree with Warren here. As for a violinist ... why not have one of the band members try to play one as though it were a guitar or bass? Not sure how that would sound, but it might sound interesting. Supercthonic.

I think it would also make a good album name.
–
for some reason, i think it was Mr. Tice but i’ve been wrong before.

oh so very wrong…

OK - Yes, I officially know someone who knows a rockin' violinist. I will send you particulars.

Might need to put in hyphens: Rock-a-Nomicon! "ROCKONOMICON" has a more broad range potential. "ROCKYNOMICON" (roughly translated "Book of Dead Boxers") would be just too evil. How evil? Yellow paisley Cthulhu evil. And I have one to prove it. A co-worker at Renaissance Faire insisted on calling him "Zoidberg," though. Pshaw. ROCKANOMICON vs. ROCKONOMICON

It could be called, "things Man Was Meant to Know". As for the new album. Hmmm. If you did drone/psychedelia you could call it, "Beyond the Wall of Noise". Anyway... How about ROCKANOMICON?

To clarify, I never said I didn't like the name because it was too lispy. That would be Toren making up a reason. I just think the name is a bit predictable and bland. I think we can do better.
