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.)
