Band Name Origins:

  • In the Grateful Dead song "Brown Eyed Women", a song sung by Jerry, there is this verse: "Delilah Jones was the mother of twins Two times over and the rest were sins Raised eight boys, only I turned bad. Didn't get the lickin's the other ones had." So they may have taken the name from there... Submitted by: Rob
  • The surviving members of the Grateful Dead (after the death of Jerry Garcia in 1995) toured for a number of years as The Other Ones. The name derived from the first track on their 1968 album Anthem Of The Sun, called "That's It For The Other One." Submitted by: C. L. Knapp

Story about this misheard lyric by: Andrew Schultz

For so long, I was confused why someone would own an ATV and not a car. It seemed terribly impractical, even though it checked out that an ATV couldn't travel very far. I assume when I heard "car" long ago, I was primed to expect another vehicle.
