Dunno if this is already old news for everyone, but since I couldn't find an existing topic for it, here goes:
In The Red Records Facebook announcement:
"This new un-named band recorded a single this week at NY Hed studios. Mick Collins, Bob Bert and Kid Congo Powers. Sounds awesome!!"
The Great Uncles of Garage Rock! WIPPEEE! This should be sweeet...

Permalink Reply by John Battles on August 12, 2012 at 2:36pm Maybe we could meddle and interfere by staging a contest to name the band. Actually , I think "The Great Uncles" is a great name !

You'd think that a collaboration with these three would warrant at least a 6 or 8 song EP... pressed on 10", please. On fire marbled vinyl.

Or should we just propose The Great Uncles...?

So I hereby declare the contest OPENED! The game is on! Come up with a name for the band, and if this gets going good, I think we'll bring the (best) suggestions to the attention of the elderly gentlemen themselves. Here goes:
