Name Fordham's Boy Band!
Watch these videos, and tell me these guys won't give Justin Timberlake a run for his money. But they need a catchy moniker. My picks: Checker and the Finns, The Alarmists, or Milli Petrilli.
Update: The name to beat is "Rage Against the Rothstein."

I can't beat "Rage Against the Rothstein" - but let me throw in "Flyy Boyz."

I don't think I can top "Milli Petrilli" or "Rage Against the Rothstein," but you can't have too many boy band names, can you?
"Checker and the Hairpieces"
"Boyz II Wonks"
"The K-Street Boys"
Of course, if they were a heavy metal band, they might be "Def Checker"

I like the K-Street Boys - along those lines, "The Backhair Boys?"

"Checker and the SpinBoyz"

"Risk Revival 25"
"Checker's Credence Doesn't-Hold-Water Revival"
