Band Names

If you were to start a band and had total control over the name, what would you call it?
Mine is "Chester's Dead." Long story involving a dead guinea pig, not really worth explaining. Yours?

This has actually come up in conversation of late, ummmm, with the three of the guys I used to work with. One is an extremely talented bass player, ever heard of a band in the 60's called West Coast Natural Gas, anyway he was in that, and he's been playing forever (obviously), the other dude, wicked guitar player, piano, accordion, bagpipes (no *feces* bagpipes), and then the last, little younger than me, learning the bass. Have I told you guys I bought a guitar and much like my hero ButchC, I'm taking lessons. So short story long, double bass (hey the dead had two drummers), we figure the drummer will be interchangeable like Spinal Tap. Twin guitars, were gonna try to get our old boss on saxamaphone (he hasn't picked up his sax in 15 years), so once I learn my lix, and the young bassman learns his lix we're good to go, so in 10 years be looking for... ...The Operations Department, or by then El Departimento De Operaciones. Or The Uisce Code...I'm torn. I know it wasn't worth the wait, but I'm trying to warm up my fingers for 4 hours of typing homeworx.  |
