and james joyce

[edit]

i have a >99%-certainty hunch that this band is named after joyce's book "finnegans wake" -- "here comes everybody" is a semifamous phrase from that book, and this band's second (A)LP. anyone have a source? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Eetthhaann (talkcontribs) 03:02, 27 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

i came to this page looking to confirm this. I have not been able to find any source either, but it would be a great coincidence if it does not have to do with the Joyce novel. However since it is the name of the second LP the name could possibly have been picked not referring to the novel and then the Here Comes Everybody name picked once they realised the similarity to the novel name. tetraedycal /158.174.9.79 (talk) 13:32, 8 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
