New "band name"....whatdoyathink??
My regular restaurant gig is going to advertise me and they want a "name" for the radio/newspaper spots. I've been going by Rich Macklin (my middle name) for years because my last name is hard to pronounce or spell, but since I regularly use a vocalizer now as the harmonies add so many more potential songs, I though...............
Since I use a TC Helicon VoiceLive2, calling myself "Rich and the Helicons" !! Clever or stupid, I won't be offended.............

I sort of like Rich Macklin.
I think that giving oneself a "band name" when that person is a solo artist is a little nutty. |

I agree with the other guys. I like the sound of the name Rich Macklin.

I think the band name is clever. But I think I'm with the others... I prefer Rich Macklin. Simple and much catchier.

Hi Rich -
Creative, but I would stick with what you have. Sounds more professional for a solo guy. |

Try "Mack Richlin" and see if anyone notices.

Get some chicks in the band and you could be "Macklin and the Mackettes".

Helicon Rich ...sounds space-agey , futuristic , and ambiguous .
Is it a man? ...is it a band ?... is it a man with a mechanical device?... is it a mechanical man ?... |

There are some good band names here.
"PorkPieGuys", The Tone Gophers", "The Acousticados" I think Larry Pattis is taken
