Hi folks, please help us choose a band name, we have been going for 8 months and hope to gig by December. We play rock cover, aged between 30-50, come in different shapes and sizes. Ill run it till next Friday and then with your help we will have a name! Many thanks for taking part! |

I think cover band names should be somewhat humorous. Erocktion seems to be the best option, then, but it's still not that funny. |

I personally am not too enamored with any of the names you listed. I asked my 9 year-old, and he suggested "The Shuttlecocks" if that's any help.
I always thought "The Natural Disasters" would be a good name for a bunch of old guys (like me).

Yeah, Lush (the old shoegazing band from london) is an established name.
if you call yourselves decades some people may expect a joy division tribute band.

| | | | Ok Lush packed up in 96 so does it matter, I could change the spelling to "Lush Puppy's" and the r/s/b are from Aus look like the good old boys!
We are only going to be a local cover band doing it now and again so does it matter do you think? | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
