In reply to Larry Palena, I know the origin of the name Pere Ubu (I like their
music a lot): it comes from an avant-garde French play called Ubu Roi (which
means King Ubu).  I've forgotten the author; I know it's a very weird play, and 
there are references to it in Brian Eno's music.  Pere Ubu (Father Ubu) is one
of the characters.
