Help me Name My FAWM album

Ross · Post by **Ross** » Fri Feb 22, 2008 4:59 pm

So I am hoping to complete this album I'm doing for FAWM - it's a concept album tracing the history of baseball.

Can anyone suggest a good title for an album like that? If it was boxing I might call it "The Sweet Science" or something. Does baseball have any similar nicknames or anything?

Thanks.

He said baseball. Not motor racing.

BTW - I like baseball. I've never seen a professional game, but I played baseball and softball for a few years. They are fun games to play. Much more fun than playing cricket.

OK, another album cover. I wish it was FACM (February album cover month)

edit: two more

My favorite so far is the Diamonds Are Forever one.

BLT, you really have a knack for these album covers.

I don't think "The Giants Suck Donkey Ass Balls" would go over too well with the FAWM folks.

Diamonds are Forever...that's brilliant. The album cover sucked BUT the name...that's money.

Are either of these in the ballpark?

But that second one looks like a picture of a jewel-encrusted cricket ball?!?!

It looks like someone demonstrating how to bowl an in-swinger
