Someone reminded me the other day of a parody I wrote a while back for a local weekly in which I grouped dozens of bands by their names and related food groups. I can't find the story (on the internet--and, I'll be damned if I'm going upstairs to search through my, ahem, archives.)

Yes, indeed.
Hey, I've seen two of those bands live!
There's a band from long ago called "The Cucumbers". I don't know much about them other than I have one of their singles called "My Boyfriend".
Oh, yeah. What I heard by them was pretty good.
there was a band called Blood Oranges from North FLA a couple of years ago. One of those crummy CDs Tom tried to get me to write about.
