Davy Bowman may have evolved from an ape but didn't Davy Jones belong to 'The Monkeys', hay haying with them? And were they not just aping 'The Beatles', another bunch of banana-eating monkeys convinced they were creepy crawly insects. What bands today name themselves after some little creepy crawlies, some modern ones like some bacterium or virus or midget mite? A rap group called 'The HIV Positives', a folkgroup named 'The Sexually Transmitted Diseases', a heavy metal band called 'The Dust Mites' or 'The Hair Lice' or 'The Mad Cow Disease Infectors' or 'The Pathogenic E.Coli Dysentry Bacteriophages'. Paul McCartney can re-name himself 'The Ebola Virus' now that the Ebony guy is gone from 'The Inflammatory Bowel Salmonella Mutants'.

Still plenty of nuts to be cracked open. Get a bunch of genetic engineers, computer scientists, and a few Floyd types to combine a monkey, a Hal 9000, a pop singer, and some Salmonella, to obtain a [beep beep beep beep], a youtube virus.
