Ze weekend: ... And You Will Know Us By The Trail of Bread

Spent the weekend in Barcelona with Super Extra Bonus Party. Funsies.

A large part of that time involved a game incorportating food products into band names. The band or artist can't already have food in their name (so no Meatloaf or Ham Sandwich). We realised that this game is actually endless. Try and beat some of these bad boys:

Thom Yorkie
Toastface Killah
Bovril Lavigne
Radiobread
Aphex Twix
...And You Will Know Us By The Trail of Bread
Queens of the Scone Age
Ovaltina Turner
Cannibal Oxo
Pizza Townsend
Mick Jaegermeister
The Meatles
Profiterolling Stones
The Pita Band
The Japanese PopTarts
Rogun Josh Ritter
Franz Ferdinaan
Pjork
Linkin Pork
My Morning Jacket Potato
Maximo Pork
MGMTea
Aesop Pop Rocks
Bruce Springrollsteen
Sly and the Family Scone
REM&Ms
Onion Rings of Leon
Breaditors
Manic Beef Preachers
Rage Against the Mashedbean
Sugar Ros
Goldfrappuccino
and it goes on and one, there were probably 1,000 more, but I can't remember them. New ones keep popping into my head too though, so I might update this later.


then there's the the Irish band subdivision:
Republic of Cous Cous
Fight Like Grapes
Super Extra Bonus Party Platter
Cathy Gravy
Damien Rice Cakes
Paddy Quesadilla
Mark Beery
Hooray For Hummus
We Should Be Bread
Starbar Little Thing
Dry Bounty
The Vinny Club Sandwich
UStew (with Edam Clayton and Larry Mullen Junior Box)
Nina Heinz
Stanley Souper 800
Ann Scotch Egg
Adebisi Lamb Shank
Lisa Hamigan
