Both good points Ken. Actually LAU is just interesting sounding and
puzzling enough to be a very good name for a band. It's like REM or U2
or something. LAU - it's mysterious and even pronounceable!
If there's space and bandwidth, allowing folks to drop any tasty tidbit
on the server is a good thing. There might be some very nice and
thought-provoking stuff lurking out there in people's medicine bags...

All excellent.
I'd add "Herding Cats" to the list.
I'm fine with just calling it "LAU" though.
Will there be a place in the directory tree on the FTP/HTTP site for random loops and
riffs and beats, not associated with any song, so that if someone wants to make a song out
of them, they can use them for that purpose?

That's cool Rob. I'll wager there's an outstanding name
boiling inside
one of the posters at this very moment. It'll burst out (no, not like
Alien) and we'll all go YESSSSSS.
I forgot what I spewed in that last message, Cloud, Strangers, Ghost,
whatever, but here's some more stream-of-consciousness within the
context of an international virtual band:
United Notions
Virtualosity
No Band
Streaming Dada
Interplanetary Relations
Net Noise
S/N Ratio
Bandwidth
...whatever...
Julien - that's a good name for the project.
Maybe even the band.
Other names for the "band" acknowledging its virtual nature[...]
I actually named my nonexistent band "world plus dog" for
exactly that
reason, and grabbed a couple domains for it about 5 years ago...
without taking strangers on a mailing list into account, there are
some people I've worked with in the past whom I hoped would be into
doing the internet collaboration thing, and a cute euphemism
for "everyone" seems appropriate for this kind of thing.
