If Joe is not too busy doing Laptop Deathmatch stuff, it could be a possibility.

of course, if there were to be a UFOFU reunion, they'd need Brandon too, which doesn't look likely. Ben's other band is awesome.

Does it make you laugh when people change their names -- like go by Benjamin instead of Ben?

It does me.

Ben, stop jamin' that space rock dude!

The commentators on the Pompey Chelsea game spent a good 10 minutes discussing why Andy Cole now prefers to go by Andrew Cole, one of them decided to keep on calling him Andy while the other kept on emphasising the -drew.

The only chance you have to do this kind of thing without some level of (deserved) mockery is between high school and college or work.

I've always loved hearing about celebrity name changes, like Demetre Georgiou/Cat Stevens/Yusuf Islam or Schmuel Gelbfisz/Samuel Goldwyn or Allen Konigsberg/Woody Allen or Bob Dylan/Robert Allen Zimmerman, etc.

Sort of on topic, what did you guys think of Ten Silver Drops? I was somewhat disappointed.

i liked it but it didn't have the replay value of the first album.

I've been introducing myself as Christ recently. Seriously. It's fucking awesome.

to me he'll always be 'black andy' or 'shit' from his miss-100-open-goals-against-west-ham-to-lose-the-premiership days.

Isn't that how Krist Novoselic pronounced it, too?

Good move.
