This is just a fun thing, no right or wrong answers.

What band name would you like to name your band?

My younger brother always wanted to name a band, "Dr. Fun & the Toys".

I like really stupid names, I thought "Death on a Stick" would be a good one. 8)

How 'bout you?

This is a very cool thread Wes!

"Minus 54" because a friend of mine came runnning into history class trying to the page number of homework from the night before and said "6-1-2? 6-1-2?" Followed by a "What are you getting on with" from a number friend, to which he replied "6-1-2! The number of the beast...minus 54."

Me and a friend are planning to start a band with that name some time.

Also, "Anti-Stabbing Box" because I was staying at by sister's boyfriend's house one night after a concert, and was of his roommates was smoking pot for quite some time, and his other friend was on some harder drugs. So the guy on pot was talking to his girlfriend on the phone, who said she was worried about the hard drug friend, to which he replied. "Don't worry about him, he could stab his way out of an anti...stabbing...box."

He pondered alot about it, then looked at the rest of us and said under his breath, "Man that was bad'

Venutian Slang

It always makes me smile to think there is slang to this (non-existant) out-of-this-world language.

Up until recently (when someone else took the name as a solo artist) I thought "Common" would be a great band name, if for no other reason than you could have a blast naming the albums: Cold, Sense, Ground, Courtesy and on and on and on.

Nowadays, though, I'm thinking of using a name given to me courtesy of Todd Mack: "The Idiot's Choir."

Peace

I've always thought:

"_________________"'s Liquor Store Tour
(insert nickname here)

would be a good "self-effacing" name :lol: (for a solo act that is)

Wow, these are great. Utensil is a very pretty name Purple. :D

A name suggested to me by another musician that I thought was very good is:

FREE BEER

Now, you are certain to draw huge crowds with this name. However, there might be a riot when everybody finds out it's just the name of the band and they have to pay full price for the beer. :D

I've always wanted to call our band 'the best band ever' and one of our songs 'the best song ever', just to annoy the dude who has to announce us. Instead we went with 'Levity', which has a nice ring to it I guess. We're currently nameless though since the girl who came up with the name left a few months ago and we felt it would be wrong to keep using the name.
