Stanford Prison Experiment is probably my favorite band name. Not just the name but the experiment itself. I also like Yo La Tengo because of the baseball reference. The Strokes is a great name for a band, especially given their style of music.

The Vic Taybacks
MC 900 Ft Jesus
Pussy Galore (and they also had good album names)

Sigh.

(dig on that run-on sentence)

That would get me in the door. :cool:

I remember in the late 80s there was a band which played Kansas City once in a while called "Lubricated Goat".

That would get me to willingly accept the two-drink minimum.

How about the infamous "Boxcar Satan" from San Antonio?

RedMeg8 may especially like Topeka's own "Vitreous Humor".

The Pretend Girl <3 Japancakes

[redmeg8]

Ahhh... many High Fidelity references, methinks.
God, I love that movie.

So, I'll throw in a vote for the Kinky Wizards.

[Emperor Wog]

Don't Forget the Austin, Texas band I Love You But I've Chosen Darkness (http://www.chosendarkness.com)

Now that's a friggin' name.

[coreyhemp]

I had never heard Japancakes, I just like the name. I'll have to give them a listen. They're instrumental, aren't they?

Yeah. They aren't Explosions in the Sky groundbreaking instrumental or anything, but they are very soothing instrumental. Most people who like them will recommend their album "The Sleepy Strange," but since I'm partial to alt country, I totally drool over "If I Could See Dallas." The first track on that album is called "Now Wait for Last Year" and it is one of the most beautiful songs. It gives me chills.

They actually are a real band.
They formed in the early 90's, and put out one cd that was self-titled. (I do not believe it is still available.
It consisted of 2 memberes of the band Drivin N Cryin.
It is mentioned here http://www.drivinncryin.com/history.asp
They were a fan favorite in Atlanta, but only stayed together for a couple of years.
You can buy a t-shirt here http://www.buyswag.com/drivinncryin/product.aspx?id=94

Actually, Dave (who was one of their many revolving guitarists) is my roommate. Last I heard, Glenn was still living at home or something. And I last saw Ryan a couple of years ago while attending Miami Middletown. They were such a fun fucking band. Actually my band The Rubber Frogs/The Riff Randalls used to play with them like every other weekend. Ahhhhh good times.

[JSpaceman]

Dogs Die In Hot Cars

[Karmapolice]

A Cat Born In An Oven Isn't a Cake

A great band name would be:

If I was in a band, I'd maybe pick The Boo Urns.

[TheShed]

my favorites are:

volcano, i'm still excited!!
these arms are snakes
brian jonestown massacre
neutral milk hotel

[carrotsncelery]

It's interesting how you can forget or overlook the strangeness of some of these band names until you start to think about them. I shocked some of my (less musically enlightened) friends once by having a serious discussion about the Ass Ponys.

Originally posted by JSpaceman
Dogs Die In Hot Cars

This reminds me of a good story... So the local radio station plays this game "Rock Band or Not," where they come up with absurd band names and callers have to guess if they are an actual band name. So I emailed in with my 2 recent favorites - Dogs Die in Hot Cars and Sluts of Trust. They ended up making me listener of the day - for a disappointing prize of a free body piercing (don't really see myself using that) and tickets to see Vertical Horizon woo hoo!! .

[Gold_Soundz]

The next time any of you hear of 'Drunk Uncle Chuck and the Funktarts' you guys should go check 'em out.

[talviciousgnom]

I've always been parcial to the band name "The Vermicious Knid".

Had to look it up in the OED. Apparently means "worm-like pheasant's nest"...

Oh, and my band's named The Rugged Linguists. I quite like the name, really.

[christophre]

i'm with IPrayForSound:

anal cunt

why does it matter which interpretation is right? ;)

i also like (local seattlites):

tractor sex fatality

and for some reason (really, i don't understand why, it's not *THAT* genius -- OR IS IT?), i giggle everytime i hear:

brian jonestown massacre

somebody mentioned it already. and i giggled.

[JVSartre]

Generally, I'm emphatically anti-pun. Except when it comes to band names. I offer these, then, in the spirit of the lowest life form of the joke food chain, the pun:

Ether Bunny
Bi-Polar Bear


And my favorite non-pun, pithy, and ear-friendly:

Elephants Gerald

[spinx]

My fave band name for chukles would have to be....Gay dad....shit band grt name....:p

I think I heard the name The Vermicious Knid in 101 Dalmations as well, but I may have been hallucinating. It also tends to be a critter in fantasy games.

[Somerset Frisby]

The Soviet Reunion

Patsy's Decline

[jfurnie]

No Use For A Name

I know the translation, but I still don't understand the reference. Did someone say in particular say this?

[El Matador]

No one in particular, it's just one of the fundamentals they teach you in baseball. You always make a call for a fly ball. Keeps people from slamming into each other at high speeds.

Oh, and I used to dig on "Grasshopper Takeover". Good name.

[uselesstomato]

when i was 14, i wanted to start a band called "the funky fartknockers from outer space"

that

or "Cud"

[Chespo]

I'm rather surprised no one has mentioned The Crucifucks; that name has the potential to offend a lot of people in a very concise manner.

Does anybody remember the Rutles? Leggy managed another group called "Crosby, Stills, Nash, Young, Gifted and Black".:D

[Chespo]

Another favorite, in case no one has mentioned it...

Melodious Thunk

It's not said by any one player in particular.

It's a phrase that English speaking ballplayers need to learn so they can communicate better with their Spanish speaking teammates. This way no one gets hurt crashing into eachother.

[jps]

there is no band that i know of name this... but i was just watching "clerks" again and...
