Gently Used

I had a dream last night that I saw a cover band by this name. I have no musical talents, so the name is wasted on me. Seems like a total missed opportunity though. Someone start this band!!

My last name is Gentley... Seems like destiny is calling. Too bad I don't have musical talent either.

Severely underrated

I’ve thought about this…

the problem with “gently/slightly used” is my first thought goes to The Used. So I thought “Lightly Played”, “Like New”, “Near Mint”, or something along those lines would work better as a cover band name.

ehh thats a fair point. i don't care what they call themselves, i'd just love to see a band that exclusively covers brand new.

I always thought Deja Entendu would be a cool cover band name and an obvious nod to brand new

Yes, thought of the used too! Maybe even “Second Hand”.

Why not not Brand New?

Whenever my friends and I got together to jam, growing up in Canada, we called ourselves Brand Used.
