A Tale Of Friendship And Luck (But Not Pecs), Propelled By 'The Room'
For the Kyoto-based, Alabama-born duo of Nice Legs, its band name was more than just an homage to The Room -- it was an homage to friendship that ended up yielding a sorta-lucky break.
Bands lift their names from all sorts of bizarre places — abandoned vampire movie scripts, extremely obscure characters from The Simpsons. For its part, the Kyoto-based duo of Nice Legs is an homage to a throwaway line from "the worst movie ever made," The Room, and a typically stilted little romantic scene between leading man Johnny (Tommy Wiseau) and his girlfriend, Lisa (Juliette Danielle):
JOHNNY
You have nice legs.
