If U2 *HAD* to change their name, what would the new name be?

[LyricalDrug]

Any suggestions, other than the Hype and the Larry Mullen Jr Band?

Clearly, I'm bored. It's pointless questions like these that qualify me as a psychotic U2 fan.

I think Acrobat would be a cool name for the band.

Wait, was that already taken?

No no, I just like Fred. Right Said Fred sounds as if someone was trying to be cool (failed though), whereas Fred just is. I like the just is quality.

The Shit

What about just Shit? Then you could say "hey guys, I'm going out to buy new Shit" or "Did you hear that Shit on the radio?" (which is pretty much all that's on the radio anyway, so no one would know exactly waht song you were referring to though...), or even "I'm going to that Shit concert!"

I like The Shit, but it has to have "The" with it. Something is hot if it's "the shit," but it's completely opposite if it's just "shit."

Me, I think they should go with ...

U2 II: Electric Boogaloo

exactly funny how that works

having just Shit as a band name would be pretty funny too

imagine the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame induction
