Song-Inspired Band Names: The Get Up Kids

The Get Up Kids
Inspired by the Cure's 'Suburban Get Up Kids'

'Suburban Get Up Kids' was close, but no cigar: Singer Matt Pryor's previous bands all had names that began with S, so they dropped the 'Suburban.' More important, they thought they'd sell more albums in the "G" section of the record store than the overcrowded "S"'s. (By that logic, X should be the world's biggest band.)

I don't know but I like their music even though I listened to very few of their songs. They are good I can tell that and will wait to watch them.
