Just because I thought of what I thought would be a great one for punk, metal or some other *rebellious* genre: Antifreeze Popsicle.

Our band played a fireman's charity gig recently that was held in the courtyard of an 'assisted living" facility. (aka old folk's home) That led to us trading off band names that we could use to commemorate the moment. Here are a few, apologies in advance but some are truly tasteless/ potentially insensitive:

The Alzheima-tones
The Depends
Oxygen. Now
The Who the Hell Are You's
Viagra Sunset
The Shakes
Ballsy Palsy
the Remember Whens
The Den Sures
Toofless
Incontinentones

There's some good ones, but a number of them are fictitious or not even bands ("Buck Naked and the Bare Bottom Boys" is from Primus' "Wynona's Big Brown Beaver" Video, and BroadZilla and Bondage A-Go-Go are monthly events at a bar here in Chicago)

I saw Buck Naked & the Barebottom Boys twice- Buck was shot a few years ago, RIP.
Oh, BTW- I don't care if the band names are real or not- my first entry isn't. Just some hump-day randomness in tha OT, yo.

You don't mean Buck Shot from The Bleeding Backsides, do you?

No- Buck Naked & the Barebottom boys were a very real, very interesting band out of San Francisco. IIRC I saw them open for the Dead Milkmen once, maybe Primus the other time. Buck wore a toilet plunger cup and string as a sort of codpiece, adding the handle toward the climactic end of the show wherein he *did* his guitar(sorry, mods- delete if needs be). Impressive.

Our cover band is called: Some Kinda Jones.

I can name a band I'm in after hearing the sound & lyrics. Attitude has a big part in a band's name.

There was(is?) a japanese band who's name got botched in translation...

They were SUPPOSE to be called 'The Machine Gun Incedent', but translation errors saw to it that they would internationally be known as 'The Michelle Gun Elephant'. Use to lol (before 'lol
existed) at their cd in the mall.


i was in a band in highschool called XmalcomX... 'black-power-violence'.
