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

[Deleted]

Inspired by mothers on soap operas (and other dramas) that slap their daughters in the face during tense moments: Slaphappy Mothers.

Hee, LSW, once, during the eighties, I saw a poster for a show featuring two bands, Choosey Mothers and Angry Babies. I saved it for a while, because I thought it was funny, like a found poem. I like Slaphappy Mothers, too.

(I might have briefly been in an 80's band called Youth in Asia. Or is that true for all of us that lived through the 80's? I played marimba...)

I just read about a woman who claimed that, as a result of a distressing phone call, she experienced Spontaneous Menstrual Flow, and all I could think was "that would be a rad name for a metal band."

Anyone seen this?

The Canonical List of Weird Band Names.

Every single one of these is the name of an actual band, past or present. From "Henry Kissinger's Tits" to "Imperial Butt Wizards" to "Natalie Portman's Shaved Head" to "Origami Genitalia," they're all here. Lots of 'em even have Youtube uploads and Myspace pages. A few of 'em (like "Violent Femmes," "Limp Bizkit," "Panic! at the Disco") even hit the mainstream.

I was up way past my bedtime going over that list. I don't know what to make of the extreme popularity of the use of "Satan", "Jesus", "Anal", and "Cock" in band names...

The only real suggestion I have for this thread is something I came up with on TWoP a few years back (after a discussion about how weird--and obvious--a marketing ploy it was for Kotex to have put a big, red flower on the new packing for its products): Cow Skull Tampon. That's it. That's the whole suggestion. I'm thinking they'd be really big Georgia O'Keefe fans.

How have I never read this thread before? Some of the favorites that I or my family have come up with (mostly tv related)-
Jerry Springer's Kids
Wonky Nipples
Reality Show Whores
Xander's Eyeball
Jack or Sawyer?
and my 2 favorites, Titties and Beer, a honky tonk band, and Pussyfart, a metal band.

Xander's Eyeball

HA HA HA HA HA. Ha.

That is hysterical. I may have to steal that. Except I'm not in an actual band, nor do I even play any instruments.

Nipple Confusion

Watching "Young Adult" right now. Was surprised to find this was the name of the band in the movie.

Roast Beef Curtains, anyone?
