Dad band names

It's often a term of affection here...
I spent some time working in Ireland, in a beautiful town about 45 minutes drive north of Dublin. The people in the facility where I was working threw the C word around liberally, men and women alike. Usually preceded by an adjective, lol. It was a constant in any conversation. We were out for drinks one night and I asked one of the Irish guys about it, whether people got offended by the use of the C word. He put down his beer and looked at me like I was a two headed village idiot. "It's a term of endearment, ya ******* ****". Lol.

He came to the states to work with me in our local facility. I told him, "Darren, you absolutely cannot use that word at work while you're here. It's pretty much the most offensive word you can use." "Fine, fine", he promised. "You won't hear it once from me."

He made it almost 45 minutes... :) Ah, I miss working with that crew.

Some recent threads have concerned "Dad bands". I was unfamiliar with that term until a few days ago. This got me thinking of how to rise to the top of the heap in this new and potentially explosive entertainment segment. Like in any other genre, a catchy name may well be the first step. Keeping in mind that a good moniker is not only an advertisement of sorts, but is a description of who and what you represent musically. Let's have some fun brainstorming. Here goes:


Grey Sabbath

The Catheteers

Semper Swollen

Lumbago Bay

Dr. Plumber and the Butts

The 48 States

The Jeri Attrix Experience




Your turn!
The dad name band!
