I was waiting on the Logo to get finished so that I could post that along with the duo name . I had some awesome names recommended to me from some of you the past two weeks , Some were almost game changers for me . I stopped in my tracks on a couple of them , “Naught Heads” was phenomenal ! I almost stopped the presses for that one but I forged ahead with this name .
Remember I posted a hint of a “Nickel” ? It’s something I didnt know myself at the time and was informed that a Nickel is a type of green woodpecker . That laid the basis for our logo mascot . The name is a play on words also ,

Backstagers , I want to introduce you to : Wood & Nickel

Why this name ? First , its safe for putting on a business card and customized picks to hand out to booking agents at wineries , upscale restaurants, and microbreweries . It will not offend anyone . Second , the play on words is going to be recognized by guitar players as Acoustic Guitars and Nickel Strings . Third , Old Schoolers will remember the sage advice when they were sent out into the world to conduct affairs and not get screwed over . Remember this expression from your parents ( I know I did ) “ Go make the world your own and don’t take any wooden nickels !” In other words don’t get screwed over ,
Its a safe duo name and we needed to distinguish ourselves from any more duos in that region of NC/SC . Nobody in that region is called this name , If it happens that we are wrong , then screw it ,, we are the Naught Heads !!!

I have been trying for a while to upload the logo, but my thread post says its too large of a file to post it . So if you want to see it ,send a request via I M to Me here and I will forward it to you if I can get it to upload , otherwise send me your email and I will email it to you . ( You can trust me ,,, I’m not setting you up for any dick pics !!! Lol ) … plus ,when the customized picks arrive , I will send you one if you request it ,, I will post it when the picks arrive , but look for them to arrive in 2022 .

Again , I appreciate your patience in waiting , I haven’t been trying to jerk you around ( as I was accused of by a poster ,who will remain nameless ,I do feel your frustration and I forgive you ten times over for your post . I was waiting on someone to return from vacation to finish the logo .
I can tell you I spent many moments doubled over laughing at some of the duo name suggestions that were sent my way .It only reinforces the reason I love being on this Backstage Forum .

I love the new name, it's way better than anything we came up with.

That suits your band better, but it needs to be plural :)
The former colonies don't need your "proper English" or your pedantry; our language has evolved, don't you know?

I was replying to John, Wood 'n' Head is great for a duo, Wooden Heads is for John :laugh2:
The quote part wasn't for you:)

Wood & Nickel is just perfect.

No plural, no nothing.
Guitars are made of wood.
Strings are made from Nickel.

And no Wood & Head either.
Too much sexual double entendre.
You don't want any type of controversy.

Wood & Nickel really makes sense for an Acoustic Duo.
Maybe with the layout of an acoustic guitar in the background
to help people tie the name to the style.

Wood N' Nickel rolls better IMHO. :hmm:
lol!!!!! Do you know that was the original spelling of it ,, too many people said that they’re wouldnt get the “N ,, I did actually ,, I think you and I see it the same but the “ &. “ won the discussion .. I like how you think though … IT was that way for two weeks actualy

I have used a free program called Irfanview for the last 15 years. It does a lot of graphics manipulation including reduction in size of files. I can highly recommend it as it's pretty easy to use.
