Well, it's Friday, innit ?

On the way up to T in the Park, ChrisC introduced me to a word game he'd heard on Phil Jupitus' breakfast show. It's dead simple:

Run together the name of a band and a TV show to create a new multimedia experience. The best example he could remember from the radio was TISWAS Not Was.

My inaugural effort was Coldplayschool. Later, I worked up to Eminemmerdale, Going For Goldfrapp, 24 Non Blondes and Lord Rockingham's XI O'clock News. A joint effort by ChrisC and me remains one of my favourites - The The Late Late Show.

Anybody want to join in ?

Incidentally, a few rules:

No "losing" inconvenient letters, like a trailing 's'. You can't combine the Thompson Twins and Twin Peaks to make Thompson Twin Peaks.

No sandwiching bands and programs together. They should be strictly band-TV or TV-band. Sadly, this rules out the otherwise marvellous System of a Countdown.
