Someone Help Me With These Acronyms!

Post by rival »

I don't know if it's my place to post this or not but I've been lurking for a while and every now and then I come across something and I have no clue what it is, specifically abbreviations. I decided to compile a list of acronyms because they are flying around here like crazy. Although I consider myself a fairly big fan of Jack White and his ventures, there are some I look at and take me a few minutes just to figure out. Obviously some are incredibly easy to figure out so if this has already been done or the Mod's think it's weak, you can totally delete it. Also, feel free to add to the list. I'll try my best to keep it updated.

WS - White Stripes
TDW - The Dead Weather
TMR - Third Man Records

RJ - Rob Jones
PM - Print Mafia
RSD - Record Store Day

BBS - Broken Boy Soldiers
UGWNL - Under Great White Northern Lights
WBC - White Blood Cells
SFTRI - ?

ICLAB - I Cut Like A Buffalo
HYFTH - Hang You From The Heavens
FFB - Fly Farm Blues
BBB - Blue Blood Blues
LSH - Let's Shake Hands
GITD - ?
GBMS - Get Behind Me Satan

TD - Triple Decker
B&B - Black & Blue

Hope this isn't too elementary for all of you. There are some more I've seen but I can't track them down or think of them right now.
Hey, it's just a fucking record. Chill.

Thanks. That;s got quite a few more than what I have listed. I tried using the search tool before posting this thread and I couldn't find anything. If a mod wants to close this one down, that's cool.
