Now
The band quickly had several follow up practices for several weeks, still without a name. Finally, one day after practice they all sat down and worked on a name. The name Triptin Fell came up when John was talking about a friend of his, and the rest of the guys seemed to like it. A few weeks later, BJ informed the band that they were signed up for a battle of the bands competition that was to take place in Dubuque. Stunned, the band kicked it into high gear for their audition only a week or so away. A few short days before the audition, when the band was sitting around after practice, the subject of a name was addressed again. While everyone was pondering names, John piped up with the words "Next to Fall". Immediately the band fell in love with it. Changing the name just days before the competition, Next to Fall was prepared to take on anyone. Despite the poor turn-out of supporters of Next to Fall, they still got the crowd worked up and formed an awesome mosh pit. Later that night the winners were announced, and taking first in people's choice was... of course, Next to Fall. And now there is much to expect from this small-town-midwest-rock-band.
