-->'''Matt Wignall:''' We were experimenting with idea of like playing jazz, which incidentally, we kinda sucked at. And found out why most of the time all good jazz players are over fifty, 'cause it takes that long to get good at it.

Names The Same disambig
Deleted line(s) 5 (click to see context) :
* NamesTheSame: Havalina was actually their first name, but they lengthened it to Havalina Rail Co. to avoid being confused with The Havalinas, a surf-rock band. Around 2000 or so, a major lineup change (and the news that The Havalinas had broken up) inspired them to change their name back to Havalina. And after they broke up, a completely unrelated Spanish band, also named Havalina, put out an album. [[SarcasmMode No, it's not confusing at all.]]

* RenamedToAvoidAssociation: They were initially named just Havalina, but expanded their name to avoid confusion with another California band, The Havalinas. Where things get funky is, years later HRC felt the need to change their name once more after several members departed, and they believed The Havalinas had disbanded by that point, so they felt it was safe to shorten their name to just Havalina again. Which just led to confusion a few years later when a completely unrelated Mexican band formed, also calling themselves Havalina.

* HalfRememberedHomage: ''Russian Lullabies'' (or at least, the songs Matt Wignall wrote for the album) was inspired by reading about Russian folk music, and purposely not listening to any.

* ScienceMarchesOn: Havalina was actually ahead of the curve. They wrote "Pluto" (featuring the chorus "Not quite a planet and not quite steam / Pluto's caught right in between") four years before its namesake was officially demoted to dwarf planet.
