let's make a monster
Posted by badartdog on 14 February 2010 - 1:49pm.
can we create our own Frankenstein-style creation from the world of rock n roll, using the names of bands, songs and suchlike?
For example, Heart, the Shins and A Pair of Brown Eyes might get us started.

Or...
Nipple Feat! With a Medicine Head!!
Red Right Ankle
by The Decemberists.
The Necks
Surprised
No one's mentioned Head, Hands and Feet yet - and they'd be matching.
There was definitely a band called The Toes.
Liver-pool by Frankie Goes To Hollywood
and
Brian Eno's A Year with Swollen Appendices
Perfect Skin - Lloyd Cole and the Commotions
I know Rod's already
bringing the Faces but he could also bring Heads along too.
Art Garfunkel could supply an Eyes option and Jellyfish could provide a Bellybutton. Rory Gallagher does a nice tattoo too and I'm sure some part of Bono might be useful. And dear old Max Bygraves would, as ever, be advising during the op with 'You Need Hands!' and PP Arnold would be shrieking 'The First Cut is the Deepest'.
These 'creations' are usually dressed in ill-fitting clothes but I think Jack Bruce knows a fine tailor although he would, no doubt, be telling us 'We're Going Wrong'.
You'll need
a Third Eye Blind and a Third Ear band
Randy Newman says....
They could be "Short People".. or "They Might Be Giants".
