LITERAL BAND PARTY
Posted by Stacy Chandler at February 19, 2008 1:50 AMJust when I was really starting to wallow in self-pity for a lack of social life (working nights and weekends will do that), a new pal of mine invited me to a party.
A theme party.
Which, yes, can be kind of lame. But this one is a beautiful, shining exception. It is, hands down, the best idea for a theme party I've ever heard.
The theme? A literal band party.
The translation: You must come dressed as a literal interpretation of a band's name. So take, as an example, Nickelback (please! Ba dum dum). You would show up with nickels taped to your back. Or, as my awesome mother-in-law suggested, you could represent Three Dog Night by wearing pajamas and bringing three dogs on a leash (or stuffed animals in your arms -- though that could severely impede your ability to hold a beer, which is troubling).
See? Isn't that fun?
The party is a week away, and I'm trying to think of ideas. Any suggestions?
Grateful Dead! A zombie carrying a stack of thank you cards?

Come dressed as a gigantic letter 'C' (Great Big Sea)
Or you and G go both dressed as letter 'U's (U2)
Hmmm....a VW Bug (Beatles)
Covered in pumpkin parts (Smashing Pumpkins...although you might begin to stink as the night wears on.)
Come dressed as a first baseman. (i.e. The Who...although that might not exactly be literal).
You could not bathe for a few days and get really really sweaty and stinky (Golden Smog)
Carry around flaming cans of tuna (Hot Tuna)
As a last resort, you could get a bunch of your female friends to come completely nude (Barenaked Ladies)
Okay. Those last few are pushing it a bit. But it's a start.

You can spend the entire party yelling for a van to stop and pick you up! (Van Halen).
I really need to go away.

A stoned cowboy?
An eagle? Or a cardinal?
A submarine with the flags of all the UN countries painted on the side?
The lower half of a pair of legs?
I leave it as an exercise for you to figure out which bands I'm referring to. Hopefully they're all pretty obvious. :)
