    Did you guys know there is a heavy metal group named WATCH TOWER? I remember some years ago, when I was looking on the net I typed in watchtower.com and came across their website. Apparently when the Society decided to go online they must have paid big buck to Watch Tower to have the domain name.

    Isn't their a 'Jehovahs Waitresses', too? I seem to recall a part about it.

    {looks around on google}

    Oh, here's a bunch of cute ones:

    • Jehovah's Waitresses
    • Jehovah's Wetness
    • Jehovah's Witness Protection Program
    • Jesus Christ Super Fly
    • Jesus Chrysler Supercar
    • Jesus Manson and the Starvation Army

    RR - I've heard of them, didn't the guitarist used to play with Slayer? That's all I know about them

    Not sure about Slayer, I was a good JW and didn't listen to that "satan music." But I wonder how much money the Society paid the band to give up the domain name?

    sometimes you just have to crank slayer up just to get out all that angst. they're like the metalyest of the metal. but i never heard of watchtower. it's funny, all of the spectacular imagery on my son's cds (marilyn manson, slipknot, black sabbath, metallica, megadeth, mudvayne, pantera, etc.) doesn't bother me but for some reason that 'watchtower' image and name does.... oog.

    Notice the heavy pyramid imagery on the graphic?? I found that interesting, given the Watchtower's early history with pyramids...hmmm....

    I remember seeing Jesus Lizard in New Orleans a long time ago, and a local NO band opened up for them (can't remember their name)...they all had "stage names", combining religions and famous punk rockers' names. The guitarist name was "Jehovah Vicious"
