I’ve done this before, but it’s always fun.
1. Go to the “Random Article” link on Wikipedia. Write down the title of the article. This is the name of your band.
2. Go to “Random Quotations” and 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”. The third picture will be your album cover.
Put them all together and you get:
Try it!
Enjoy this post? Try these:If Avitable loses his beard and nobody’s there, is he still Avitable?
Help me choose my next hairstyle











This is amazing.

@Faiqa, and Britt would be John, Hilly would be Paul, Jared would be Ringo and you would be Charles Manson. I’m just saying. Wait, did Manson try out for the Beatles or the Monkees?
More importantly, who cares?
Um. Just Fyi, if we’re talking the Monkees, I’m Mike.

I’ve seen this meme and have tried doing it, but I was never satisfied with the results. Yours, however, is awesome.
