Great name for a rock band 

As Dave Barry would say.

Because I am obsessive sometimes, I was doing more research on Google today. I was specifically curious about my status as a shedder of the varicella zoster virus, because I do not want to go around giving innocent people the chicken pox if I can help it. Happily, I learned (and confirmed) from medical teaching sites that with shingles, you are only shedding from the blisters themselves, not breathing the virus out as is true for the starter disease, chicken pox. So as long as I keep my shirt on, innocent bystanders should be safe.

It was in the course of this research that I found the eloquent description of the general appearance of the clusters of blisters -- a "carpet of scabs".

I think you would agree that would be an EXCELLENT name for a rock band.
