Band Name Origins:
- They were originally called "Public Affection", but they didn't think it would be clever enough. So, they came up with "Live", and it stuck. It makes for some interesting discussions when talking about them. Submitted by: Beau McClelland
- The band was called "Public Affection" for several years. It was during the recording of their first major label album that they realized this was a stupid name and quickly chose the name "Live" in order to get it to the press in time to put on the album cover. Submitted by: bt
Why the Name is Stupid:
- When I search for them on napster, it just gives me mp3s of bands that are playing live. How much does that suck?? Submitted by: PhoenixPyre
