| EXPLAIN THE NAME |
| We were in a mad search for a name and, one day at a video store, we (Jared and Cory) saw one of those molded collector's mugs. I'm pretty sure they only had a few different characters - all from Star Trek the Next Generation show - and one of us, seeing the Troi mug, said "heh - drinking coffee from counselor troi's head...". We laughed, and it was the band's name for our first 16 years. now we're just called TROI. |
