Band Names

[ricky8787]

So.....

Im in a band. We are huge mmj fans. We are called the three of we. For now, anyway. We are talking about changing to burnt reynolds.

I was just wondering if any of you folks were in bands and ask you to post your names or just any interesting band names that you know of. Im not trying to steal any ideas here,  im just curious to see what you guys have to say. Since My Morning Jacket is one of the best names ever.

I'll start things off:

Equestrian Love Child - Its an old band of mine but the only other name i can think of right now.

How about Wizzle Wozzle?

I've been in the Whoremoans, Manville, Jesus and the Dinosaurs, and Offended Midwestern Housewives.

Other considerations were Strapped for Cats and LMNOP (elemenohpee)

Manville was the one that went the little bit furthest, and we just got the name because the attic we practiced/played shows in was lined with "Manville" insulation with the name "Manville" everywhere.

Jesus and the Dinosaurs is awesome. But theyre all awesome.

;D

catchy.

[el_chode]

We aimed to be offensive at times. I thought Jesus and the Dinosaurs would annoy some, and make others laugh.

Our, or at least my songs were about the following topics:

- Our drummer passive-aggressively stalking our neighbor
- Why the fuck did Sonic advertise on my TV when there wasn't a Sonic within 700 miles of me
- A cop that I saw run over a cat and keep going, enraging me
- The fact that we shared rehearsal space with bats and rats that most likely had rabies
- How one time this guy thought I was autistic

Do you live in Massachusetts? Because I used to, and that really pissed me off. As far as I know, there isn't a Sonic in all of MA, so why were they wasting my time with their stupid commercials?

This was in Syracuse. At the time (and yes, we mapped it) the nearest one was in West Virginia. We sent our demo to Sonic HQ and informed them we were going to make a music video of the song with us driving to West Virginia and eating at Sonic and that we'd really appreciate a free meal.

We never heard back.

A friend of mine flew in to Nashville from NYC last year and all she wanted was these banana pudding shakes that Sonic had been advertising in NYC, but she couldn't get one. Seriously, it's the FIRST thing she said when I picked her up; she drank about 5 (and bought me 2) the whole time she was here.

She's Still Gone Already - freakin great

Those are some cool names

[ycartrob]

She's Still Gone Already - freakin great

Oddly enough, that's the only one I did not make up. I used to work at a transitional living home for homeless young people and there was guy there who had some obvious learning disbilities and he came into my office and asked if so-and-so was still gone already.

he also came by my office on a Fat Tuesday and asked if it was "big Friday" or something. He ended up getting kicked out b/c he got a little too violent; poor kid never had a chance.

When we went to Bonnaroo in '06 and saw a sign for them, I forced everyone to make a pitstop out of desperation to satisfy my craving for cherry limeade slushie

I used to live in Alaska and I'd see Chuckee Cheese commercials allllll the time..... And I'm pretty sure that the nearest Chuckee Cheese was 2,000 miles away  :(

I thought The Living Daylights was the most bitchin' band name ever in high school. Then I realized it was a Bond movie.

I had a friend that was in a band that was initially called Thus Rocked Zarathustra, but they later changed the named to The Homicidal Erections.

The band I'm in now is Eureka California (no comma), and, while not my favorite, it's a tribute to the birthplace of Mike Patton, so I suppose that's respectable.

If I were to name a band, it'd probably be lifted from a Wallace Stevens poem...
