Apparently, the Only Thing Worth Knowing about a Musical Ensemble is 'How it Got its Name' | @Microsoft @TheRichest_Com @MSN_Entertain @NueMusical @Cracked @EzineArticles
Looking for some resources of 'information on popular musicians,' I found a lot of musicians' names on Biography.com. But--I would guess it's because they just 'haven't gotten around to the groups yet,' but people might suspect it's because 'Biography.com doesn't think the groups matter'--I couldn't find any 'biographies for the groups' on biography.com.
And--not-quite knowing where to find 'biographies of musical groups'--I tried some phrases on the search-engine that (before I 'settled for' Wikipedia.com) mostly lead to 'these blog-articles about lists of interesting band-name stories'---linked through 'the main word' below (the word is #Bouquet because a Band- or another Musical Ensemble--though its members gel together nicely--remains only a temporary bond);
but I feel it's more important to understand that word better. And I find that you understand words better when you look at the other words at the bases of the words you're thinking-of ...
The word “|Bouquet|” is built on ancient words that mean Little Grove (|Bush ... Perfume of a Wine).
- a few of the bands listed in the lists of the linked search:
