I reckon being inspired by a band then stealing their name probably takes a hit to your total mana

thansk to Wikipedia
Oh true. I've been looking up UK 82 bands the last few days and wondered how this band fitted in. That explains it.
Named after a Brooklyn Puerto Rican 1950s street gang which in turn was named after after the Mau Mau uprising in Kenya (thanks Wikipedia).
