Shouldn't it be "XX and the XYs", technically and scientifically?

Flash in the Pan is a possible band name that came up in conversation yesterday. It's a reference to
the flint spark igniting the pan powder on a flintlock rifle.
Swing and a Ms.
Or flip it.......
The band guys sitting around a campfire and her bringing them beers.

I'm not going to suggest a name, but if she's a burlesque dancer as well as a singer, you pretty much have to do Fever by Peggy Lee.

Heres a few tips....lol
Ok .....old guys standing around a hot chick in promo shots looks wrong. And i bet her gfs and bf would be saying that too
So try and be a bit more in the background looking cool wearing sunnies or something or outdoors with a few props that distract your looks and focus on her.
I know the pretty reckless do this a bit
Also as Blue has said, here today gone tomorrow, ive seen that happen a few times in my bands, they get bored easily, so sort of plan for it. What i mean by this is, do some recordings and good promos shots to look as pro as you can be to give your next fem singer an idea on what you require out of a fem lead vox.
So band names, give her a stage name that can be carried by someone else, dont use her name otherwise it will go with her and she will think its all about her.....plus if she leaves youll have to change your promo material and call all the venue owners to explain your still the same band
Thats it, i wont suggest names you already have a few good ones
