Pink Floyd refers to them all wanting to be like their gay friend Floyd Florentine from Hackney.

Spocks Beard is from the band members wondering what mr. spock would look like in a alternate universe...or something like that.

Genesis cos they couldn't use Exodus or something like that.

King Crimson is satan.

Dream Theater is derived from their love of broadway musicals, more specifically Cats.

Just another meandering thought....but

Can someone offer their extensive knowledge (or completely made up definitions) of the derivation of some of our great band's names?

i.e...

RUSH - Ruled Under the Hand of Satan ??  (or Rule Under the Hand of Someone....called Shirley)

Genesis - some bloke with a beard

Yes - optimism ?? (or just the opposite to No)

Spock's Beard - Some bloke with a beard but only in a parallell universe

Dream Theater - A representation of an artisticlly challenging imaginery world (or falling asleep at the cinema)

Camel - Sarcastic equestrian enthusiast or chain smokers

Gentle Giant - Mystical fanatasy character (or the opposite of an angry dwarf??

Answers on post - card.....hahaha geddit post - card.......oh dear lord
