Members GuitarPlayerFL Posted March 23, 2011 Members Share Posted March 23, 2011 I actually thought of this a few years ago when stadium names were being bought up by corporations. http://www.gibson.com/en-us/Lifestyle/News/band-sells-name-0323-2011/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members musicmanmu Posted March 24, 2011 Members Share Posted March 24, 2011 Interesting idea...but I bet it will bite them in the ass. No one is going to take them seriously. They'll get an album and a tour out of it, their standard 15 min. of fame, and they will promptly fade into obscurity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members musicmanmu Posted March 24, 2011 Members Share Posted March 24, 2011 And that's a bad thing because.....??? Depends on the nature of the band. Are they weekend warriors or really trying to make a career out of music? Eh, who the {censored} am I kidding. This'll probably set them up for life. Lucky SOBs!

Members hugbot Posted March 24, 2011 Members Share Posted March 24, 2011 Somebody thought this band was worth a quarter of a million? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members R00PE Posted March 24, 2011 Members Share Posted March 24, 2011 not the band but they'll probably be advertise all around the world because of that publicity idea so the site that promotes them will get a whole lot more visibility than if they had spend 250,000 in paid publicity. Thats a pretty clever move in fact even if the band never puts a record out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members steveosplace Posted March 25, 2011 Members Share Posted March 25, 2011 Whats stopping them from changing their name later? Its a mistake if they were actually worth this much money, but if its just marketting then it money in their pockets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
