Hey Steve -- Just thought of one. How about "Chill out in the Bridge Fridge"?

Yeah, ok. That's dumb. Nevermind.

Alter Bridge is better than most band names out there. Audioslave isn't that original of a name. Linkin Park sounds retarded. Hoobastank, huh? Alter Bridge is as original as Submersed.

It's funny that they decided to change their name and to lowercase the letter D in their name. They probably didn't want to be labeled in the nu-metal category. SubmurseD sounds and looks nu-metalish to me.

I don't like that name too much. Sounds kind of dumb. Alter Bridge sounds cool. I'm probably saying this because it's the name of Mark's new band.

if i remember correctly, hoobastank is the middle name of one of the members. sounds original to me. if you dont like it, it doesnt change the fact.

WOW, AWESOME STUFF!! Well, the fact that we finally have the name is awesome, but Alter Bridge will take some getting used to, I think I like it though. If you say it out loud, Alter Bridge, it sounds really, really nice.

Thanks for posting that, it's very much appreciated, I keep on saying the name over and over again now

Here's what a Michigan gal said about Alter Bridge (The actual bridge LOL)...just for some background on it....I dunno it helped make sense to me.


Quote: From Shelly (StappsBabe)
Alter Bridge is indeed a bridge ...it sits on Alter Road....(That runs the length from Grosse Pointe to Detroit) and connects Grosse Pointe to Detroit.

I used to hang out in a park near the Alter Bridge...it was a place where all the "stoners" in Grosse Pointe would hang out after the bars closed.

I lived in Harper Woods then (which is about 10 min. from there) and half of my friends lived in one of the Grosse Pointe's. (there's Grosse Pointe Shores, G.P. Farms, and just plain ol' Grosse Pointe)

I think it's a great band name and awesome because only the local area would know about it otherwise. No one but the VERY local people even call it the Alter Bridge that I'm aware of and because it runs from the "rich" side of town (the Grosse Pointes) to the "poor" side of town (Detroit), it has significant meaning. It's so odd to drive down Alter road in the G.P's and see all the HUGE mansion-type houses with expensive cars in their driveways and then before you know it, ONE street over, you are faced with the harsh realities of the poor...run-down houses, unmanicured lawns and crime. VERY interesting choice for a band name IMO.

That's pretty cool, it's great to have a significant meaning to a band name
