Sorry for the delay in announcing this, folks, there was an extremely annoying plumbing issue at Chez Metzger this weekend. The good news is, we have a winner! Danny Myshrall has won the grand prize of a Denon RDC-N7 stereo receiver with Denon SC-N7 speakers for his entry: Taupe Sabbath! (That’s a real beauty, ain’t it? We could all agree on that one)


The runner-ups, who’ll both be receiving Denon AH-NC600 noise-canceling earphones are “Mean Mr Mustard,” who came in second place with Ned Beatty & the Squealers (ouch!) and Perry for his brilliant entry, Bristol Palin and the Rhythm Method, which came in third.

First prize is a Denon RDC-N7 stereo receiver with Denon SC-N7 speakers, retail value $800!

Two runner-ups will win a pair of Denon AH-NC600 noise-canceling earphones each, a $200 value!

The Rules: You, the entrant have to “like” Dangerous Minds on Facebook or follow us on Twitter (or both). Only people who have done this will be eligible to win. You also have to “like” Denon on Facebook.

Then, in the comments below, post the best name for a band you can think of in the comments below. To be perfectly clear: Not the name of an existing or historical group, but a completely new and hopefully very funny band name.

The name that makes us laugh the hardest wins the Denon stereo system (an $800 value) and two runner-ups will win the Denon noise-canceling earphones, a $200 value!

You can enter as many times as you want!

It’s that simple. In case you need some inspiration, here’s the list of “new & improved band names” that Jello Biafra came up with. The winning entry will have to be in somewhere in this ballpark. Here are a few more.

The odds of winning (especially if you’re funny) are pretty darn good. So what are you waiting for?

The winners will be announced on New Years Day, 2011.
