here's the answer:

Bosse-de-Nage

The origins of Bosse-De-Nage are a little unclear, even to most participants. By most accounts, Bosse-De-Nage was originally a French band sometime in the early-to-mid 90's. Most likely they were influenced by another French band, Brown Cow. Brown Cow is generally considered to be the creators of grind-poot, a fusion of sludgy grindcore and classic poot rock (a little known genre inspired by Devo and video game music). Bosse-De-Nage took this already innovative sound and fused it with the primal noise-punk sound typified by The Boredoms. Early shows were entertaining spectacles of elaborate costumes and ungodly noise, and they went over well with the art-rock crowd.

Soon, Bosse-De-Nage was invited to play a handful of shows in the United States. Unfortunately, they were financially unable to make the commitment, so came up with the idea of allowing a different group of musicians to perform under the name "Bosse-De-Nage." Given the fact that Bosse-De-Nage performed masked, no one would know who the original band members were.

Guillaume DuGrenier, Bosse-De-Nage's manager, contacted a group of musicians in Southern California and offered them the opportunity to play shows under the Bosse-De-Nage name. The musicians leapt at the chance and were booked to play shows with a number of well-known experimental bands, including Solid Eye, ASY, and Spastic Colon.

No one questioned that these musicians were, in fact, Bosse-De-Nage, so DuGrenier hatched a new scheme. Bosse-De-Nage was going to become the world's first franchise rock band! Anyone who registers with the home office can dress up and perform as Bosse-De-Nage. DuGrenier contacted Chucklehound Records to become the official hub of the franchise operation and to make available the works of the various Bosse-De-Nage units.

You do realise that this hijacking is just an advanced form of word association don't you? Conversation flows from post to post, the fact that it is coherrent only serves to illustrate it is associated.

As to Bosse de Nage's origins, there is no doubt it has something to do with armwrestling, French partitive articles and The National Association of Government employees

"Pronounced quickly enough, until the letters become confounded, (ha ha] is the idea of unity. Pronounced slowly,is the idea of duality, of echo, of distance, of symmetry, of greatness and duration, of the two principles of good and evil. But this duality proves also that the perception of Bosse-de-Nage was notoriously discontinuous, not to say discontinuous and analytical, unsuited to all syntheses and to all adequations. One may confidently assume that he could only perceive space in two dimensions, and was refractory to the idea of progress, implying, as it does, a spiral figure.
It would be a complicated problem to study, in addition, whether the first A was the efficient cause of the second. Let us content ourselves with noting that since Bosse-de-Nage usually uttered only AA and nothing more (AAA would be the medical formula Amalgamate),he had evidently no notion of the Holy Trinity, nor of all things triple, nor of the indeterminate, nor of the Universe, which may be defined as the Several."
