Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for November 10, 2015
Transcript:
Artur! Band rehearsal after school at my house! You know what? If we're going to perform at the open house, I think we should change our name. WHAT? "Enslave the Mollusk" is just so...so...um... Help me out, random passerby. Stupid. Moronic. Oddly disturbing.

Tsk tsk, but that name is a classic by now. :) Also changing the name won!t change the sound.

Bands change their names all the time. Let’s see…. first, they were The Quarrymen, then Johnny & The Moondogs, then The Silver Beetles (sic), then The Beatles. And people said they wouldn’t amount to much.

They could change their name to “Free Oysters and Fried Clams” and open for the “Bare Naked Ladies”.

To fit current conditions, it should become “Trudy’s Love Slave”.

I dunno. “Cage The Elephant” is a very good band.
Poor Nate. He can say his friends Shake Me Down, he has his Back Against The Wall. The should just Mess Around with their music and write more songs. I suppose Nate could Take It or Leave It, but there is Always Something. But who knows, Trudy might Come A Little Closer knowing that her boyfriend is also in a band.

“Enslave The Mollusk” is (no joking, no sarcasm, no snark involved here) one of my all-time favorite band names and if I ever develop any musical talent and find myself in need of a name for my musical combo, I would happily license that name from Mr. Peirce for any sum he named.
