Names! We are in dire need of a new name! What's wrong with Kiev you ask?! Nothing, asides from the fact another band on the West Coast already flagged it. So with that said we are looking for suggestions all over the place. Were searching from under rocks to seas afar and we've come up with only a few. The Few which include:

-Velvet Gang
-Pique
-The Slips
-The Rip Outs
-Red City
-Ripped
-Veux
-Vex
-Faux
-The Fix
And my personal fave The Toni Rebels.

Meh, I give up. I can't come up with a thing. Finding a new name is hard. Finding a new name is as hard as getting guacamole out of polyester pants. Can you think of anything more difficult? I think not! My head is too startled to go on with this topic, so I will switch it!

This is what I've been giving a listen to lately. Take some time out of that work day of yours and go to that bathroom, get in front of that mirror and be the rock star you've always wanted to be. To help you acquire that fine rockstar within I advise you to dance to the following:

The Faint- I Disappear
Kasabian- Club foot
Razorlight- Golden touch
Fugazi- No Surprise
The Libertines- Vertigo
Le Tigre- TKO
The Bravery- Unconditional
Q and not U- Wonderful people

Those are some fine songs indeed and I expect to have many people dancing in their undies by the end of the week.
If you have any suggestions regarding a new name, drop a line! We are open and willing to almost anything, so give it a try! Okay I can’t write anymore because it takes time away from me dancing in front of the mirror. I've got important business to attend to.

I read about that with the name. That really sucks having to change it. Can you make them, the lesser Kiev, give up the name by proving you started using Kiev first? I'm going to boycott their music.

Here are a couple of dorky ideas from me:

The Ukranians
The Velvet Revs
Veik (Kiev spelled backwards)
Radio Kiev
Odessa (a cool, cultural place)

A rose by any other name would still be sweet to listen to...
