Hey! That Would Make A Great Name For A Band!!

[winstonwolfe]

This was one of my favorite threads on The Board That Cannot Be Named, if only because it seemed to bring out so much submerged creativity...people really made an effort to be funny here, and it showed in the posts.

Don't feel like you have to limit yourselves to band names, either...instrumentation, playlists, personnel, venues the band might play in, all are fair comment here. This is the place to let your inner Svengali surface, to the amazement and delight of all. Let the names begin.

CARMEN DRAGON.

It's someone on the credit roll for the original Invasion of the Body Snatchers.

It's also the father of Daryl Dragon, AKA The Captain of "Captain and Tenille" fame.

On topic, I just thought of another band name:

Spam Folder

Because, isn't Spam better when folded?

In tribute to Britney Spears:

Crotch Cheese and the Reeking Odour.

I saw this at The Other Place in the Entertainment Weekly thread and thought I so want this for a band name:

The Meloni Endowment

I don't know if this counts, but I'm dying to see a hard-core thugged-out rapper named Lunchpail hit the charts.

I love this topic! My brother and I used to sit around and make up band names. The main requirement was the name must crack us up and annoy our parents. (Extra points for names with the word "monkey" in them.) I seem to remember Sloth, Drunk Uncles and Rancid Peanut Butter among the hundreds we coined. We should have written them down.

My imaginary girl band (made up of other good girls who make the moniker delightfully ironic): Brazen Hussies. It's funny, see? Because we're neither brazen, nor hussies. See? Funny! Anyone? <sounds of crickets chirping>

I also have an imanginary on-hit-wonder country band called One Trick Pony, but I think I heard a song the other day by a band called Trick Pony, so it appears that someone horked my idea.

I'm thinking that I'd pay money to see a band called Milton's Red Stapler.

Plus, if nobody's used Spam Folder in real life, what's the hold-up? It's a genius band name! And word to Lunchpail. He'd get into a beef with Fiddy, no?

(Goes without saying that I'd also purchase tix to witness the Meloni Endowment up close and personal, as it were...)

Lunchpail could have a diss record out called "I got your Candy Shop hanging low."

Back on topic, I long to see a Rolling Stones tribute called Starfucker or Turd on the Run.

More pretend bands in my head:
Good Touch/ Bad Touch--opening for R. Kelly
Hemingway's Liver-- they'd be on college radio
The Trashley Crudds-- all the songs would have 10-dollah words in them
Cooterfunkadelic-- I got nothin'

Thanks, Vacationland...I've been wondering the same thing myself, lately. The only thing holding me back is lack of musical ability, lack of talent, and just overall lack. I'm kind of lackluster.

Latest name is for one of those achingly sensitive girl bands that seem to have gone away with Lisa Loeb : He Touched Me There

Their debut single: Appointment With The Trauma Counselor
