Here's The Drooling Macaque Band:
Drums: Lucas Rocha (lucasr)
Bass: Chris Lord (Cwiiis) and Edward Hervey (bilboed)
Guitar: Carlos Garnacho (garnacho)
Sax: Davyd Madeley (davyd) and Robert McQueen (Robot101)
Vocals: John Palmieri (J5)

And we have a bunch of people [1] that can play something in a jam.
Our idea is to have a repertoire of 10 songs. Edward told that he'll
try to help you on the organization of this jam.

I'd really like to help on this but I don't want to be "busy" on
social events. I want to drink beers on social events. :-)

We're a jazzy/rock/funk band but we can play some Marley. :-P

My suggestion is The Drooling Macaque Band in memory of the 0.25 GNOME release.
