This will probably only work for bands who use acronyms as names. A palindrome of sorts is the logo of the band "Angel". If rotated by 180 degrees, you can read the name "Angel" again.   -------------  BaldJean and I; I am the one in blue. |

P.S.: many palindrome texts are uncommon and non-natural, even when they are interesting. In Portuguese we have a good palindrome, totally natural:

German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer invented the palindrome "Ein Neger mit Gazelle zagt im Regen nie", which translates as "A negro with a gazelle never fears in the rain". Mark that the word "negro" was not political incorrect at that time; nowadays one would say "ein Schwarzer", "a black man". And of course there is the first palindrome ever, the first words Adam spoke to Eve: "Madam, I'm Adam!" ------------- BaldJean and I; I am the one in blue. |
