Fun Music Information -> OMC
This is the most recent information about OMC that has been submitted to amIright. If we have more information about OMC, then we provide a link to the section where it appears (the actual page whenever possible).
Band Name Origins:
- to PHAT TUESDAY, OMC is named after Otara Millionaires Club. They are not the only ones to have made money from Otara, NZ - they won Lotto and formed the Otara Millionaires Club through that. Submitted by: tracey
- A few corrections for Phat Tuesday's entry: The O stands for Otara. Otara is a suburb of Manukau City, Auckland, New Zealand. While it is a less affluent suburb, I doubt they are the only people from there that have ever made "decent money". And they were called Otara Millionaire's Club long before they hit the charts with "How Bizarre", so the name was more ironic humour than statement of fact. Submitted by: fug dubh
