Cool Prizes For Guessing the Name of eBay's Own Band Playing at eBay Live!

Meet Bryan Wright, Steve Corral, Steve Slater, Brandon Jones, and Domenic Paolo. eBay employees by day, musicians by night. Rock stars in both roles.

As part of eBay's own employee band, these guys are honing their musical act for eBay Live! 2007 in Boston (June 14th-16th). They'll be the opening act for another star turn – the much awaited Keynote Address at eBay Live!, when Meg Whitman, Bill Cobb, and other execs outline plans for the future.

Well, eBay's bad boys of rock 'n' roll have a new name for their band and we want you to guess what it is. There are clues galore in this blog post – you just have to find them, and post your answers to this thread on the Chatter Blog discussion board. Long-time eBay Live! fans, if you guess Negative Feedback, we're not going to take it – they have a new twist now.

Here's another clue – the name is a pun on a famous band's name and an eBay activity. If you change one word of the band's two-word name, you'll get one of eBay's most popular products/features. And one of the weirdest tilts to unscramble in this story is why Domenic Paolo, the band's lead vocalist is considering changing his name to Dee Sniper. For that matter, why is drummer Steve Slater thinking of changing his name to A.J. VeRO? Guitarists Bryan Wright and Steve Corral, and bassist Brandon Jones aren't telling!

Cool prizes!
There are cool prizes to be won, so come out and play. The first 5 members who post the correct answer on the discussion thread will each win a T-shirt with the band's name and logo – autographed by the band members! We'll also send them a bunch of eBay "swag" – including a medallion celebrating the eBay Community, eBay pins, an eBay pen, eBay mouse pads and more! And if you're coming to eBay Live! in Boston, we'll make sure you get to meet the band members in person!

Note: We'll go by the time-stamp on each individual post to figure out the first five correct answers. We'll give out the correct answers on the Chatter Blog probably in about a week – or as soon as we have all five of our prize winners. Which shouldn't take long, I think, because, just as you can't stop rock 'n' roll, you can't stop our members when it comes to being creative!
