Great As-Yet-Unused Band Names

To get the ball rolling...

Full English Breakfast
The Jonestown Massacre Survivors Club
Gifford

--The Stummies
--Hard Drive & Your Mothers Bored
--Colen Powell's Porcupine
--Flammin' Yawn
--Manase
--S&MSNBC or FUNBC

I once played in a band. We played one gig, but we had at least three names, maybe more, during the time leading up to that one gig.

The three I remember are:

1. A Flock of Ferrets

2. Interviewing Farmers

3. A Streetcar Named Barney

I think we were officially ASNB when we performed. (Badly.)

My cuz's band is named dirty sanchez, i've always liked that one

Penis Bobsled.

I like S&MSNBC.

Penis Bobsled is good but I think we should stipulate 'only names that are actually likely to get radio play.'

Jumping Jake Jericho And The Intellectual Right
Youth Club Disco Arson Attack
Drivel
Severe Groin Strain
Adam And The Clams
The Painfully Earnest
Punk Librarians
Electric Ken
Kasualwerk
Crikey!
Hold The Mayo

I'd like to see a band called Hold The Mayo fighting it out with Electric Ken for the top slot in the Billboard 100. And if there's not a band called Jumping Jake Jericho And The Intellectual Right established by the end of the week then something's serious afoot.

I cannot take attribution for the following, as they were supplied by the drummer of Streetcar Named Barney, and I don't even know if they were his, or him in conjunction with his weird friends. But he told me one doozy: Captain Fartsucker and the Renegade Nuns.

I've never forgotten that.

And he also thought about getting a heavy metal band together and calling it Motorgoose. (It probably requires an umlaut over each of the o's as well, for full effect.)

I just thought of this, but I have no idea why.

-- Beverly Hills 9021Octopus.

The Swinging Colostomy Bags

The Pathetic Sharks
The Really Horribles
Strumpet
The Woodwind Section Of God
Incredible Edible Ed
Barking Spider

Afore's I head out for yon evening, I have a hunch that an old Australian beer-barn band, Cold Chisel, used to play as the Barking Spiders when they wanted to do pre-tour warm up shows. Just so's you know.

Here's one for you chaos theory furniture buffs.

-- The Mandlebrot Settee.

Night.

Sorry, but I think Alec Empire already used this one. Not sure, though- something about the German to English translation.

I dare any of you - ANY OF YOU - to tell me that you wouldn't go to see a band called Zeke Dangerous And The Stain Of Corruption.

the "Nip Wigs"

ohh and I always liked "Stringless Puppets"

(Imagine little witty beaker emoticon here)

The Soft White Family of Lightbulbs

there's a band somewhere called the brian jonestown massacre, which is only slightly more clever than your suggestion.

when people ask why the deathray davies are called the deathray davies, they say it's becuase the deathray liotas would sound stupid.
