Camper +/- Van +/- Beethoven

Ever since I first discovered them years and years ago, I had simply assumed that the band was called Camper Van Beethoven, with the "Van" belonging more to "Beethoven" so that it would be Camper (slightest pause) Van+Beethoven.



Yesterday, I had a thought. What if it's Camper Van Beethoven, with the "Van" belonging more to the "Camper", so that it would be Camper+Van (slightest pause) Beethoven?



Or perhaps each word should be given equal due?



How will this uncertainty affect my life?

rob,
as a cvb fan, i assure you that we'll know who you're talking about regardless of where you place your emphasis.
if that ain't good enough, try placing equal emphasis on all three words.
if that makes you feel too much like a robot (perhaps called pop-bot), try saying the name really fast so that no one can tell where you're placing your emphasis.
