Pat says:They should just merge and become one band, or alter their names!

Ryan Catbird says:Another confusing aspect is that ANTLERS (Los Angeles) cite Vivian Girls (Brooklyn) as pals, while STILTS (Brooklyn) cite Dum Dum Girls (Los Angeles).
PS I also thought of this mnemonic that can be used: crysta*L A*ntlers = the ones from *L A*
