Etymology
The members of Waiting For God have given different answers in different interviews about the origin of the band's name.
Apocalypse magazine interview:
Apocalypse: Where did you get the name Waiting For God?
Daemon: You must realize that no matter what we say, we could by lying......
Martin: I don't remember. The first EP was finished and one of us, Daemon or I, just came up with it. Sorry if that's a bit of a boring answer. If someone has a more interesting one maybe they can send it to me?
Ink 19 interview:
We agreed to be 50/50 partners, and use other musicians live. We 'borrowed' the name Waiting For God from an episode of Red Dwarf . I had to fight and tooth and nail to keep that band name, as Martin wanted to get rid of it. Funny, years go by and now he can't part with the name...
