Okay people, here's the deal.  Some of you may find this stupid, but my friends and I have a blast with this.
 
You take the name of a band (or musician) and rearrange the letters (or sounds, it works phonetically) to make something funny.
 
Examples : Symphony X --- Sexy Nympho
               Portnoy ---- Porntoy
 
You get the idea, now let's laugh !
 
LOL
