re: Does every band with a number in their name suck?

about 10 years or so ago, i saw this unknown band called 11-foot-7 opening for a zappa cover band....loved their performance, saw 'em several times after that, and was nearly convinced they had the goods to gain a following....and in some areas, they did start to get their share of regulars in attendance. but unfortunately, they signed a bad deal & were forced to disband in order to free themselves from it. shame, 'cuz they were one of the few "small" acts i enjoyed seeing....

but yeah, most "number" bands post-AOR era do suck
