QuoteRisingStone I know this is a sad job but for your information — Although I couldn’t find the total figure of the suicides in the U.K. 2020, according to the O.N.S. website, the registered figure in England last year is 4,902. The population ratio of England to the whole U.K. is approximately 84%. Accordingly, the estimated figure of the suicides in the U.K. 2020 would be roughly 5,800 plu

I don't think there would be anything bad about having a gig, which I'm sure would be good. But you really need to consider giving your band a completely different name out of respect for the original. It would be a different band.
