Band Cover Boredom

So I know I already told the Contextualists about this little time passer but I felt the need to share it with the whole group. Its kinda fun and wacky and with a large enough group of people doing this it can get pretty fun...for a little while. Here's how you do it.

Step 1: go to wikipedia and select "random article"- this is your band name.
Step 2: go to wikiquote and select "random page" then find last 3-5 words of the last quote - this is your album name.
Step 3: go to Flickr and go to "from the last 7 days" (on bottom) select one of any of the nine pictures displayed - this is your album cover's picture.
Step 4: create album cover.
Step 5: Share it.
Step 6: Argue with people about what kind of music your band plays based on the name and cover. Come up with silly histories or backgrounds for your band to add flavor.


This is my favorite creation so far. The band, as you can see, is called Great Conspiracy and their latest album is, kind of fittingly, "Honesty, Economy, and Justice". They're probably a poor quality punk rock band out of Hawaii.(those are the lava fields outside of the Kona airport on the Big Island.)
