I think to qualify as a bandYou actually need to play your instruments to a reasonable standard rather than, say, getting the Blockheads and the Art of Noise in instead?

NERD MODEFrankie goes to hollywood
was a band name taken from a headline - about Frank Sinatra.
If you find an old t-shirt with 'say' instead of 'says', it's a knock-off.

Right about the name, wrong about the shirt.Yes, they were named after the headline. But the shirt was a message from the band, not from Mr. Sinatra.

As far as I know, Frank Sinatra never sang with Frankie Goes To Hollywood. Except, perhaps, in the shower.
