Dad band names

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!
All the ones in my area all have names that are kind of a joke on their age. Band names like “the gray” and “half dead”

Forgot one. Don’t know if they are still together but there was one called “still rocking” or something similar that was probably the most hated band in my area for a while because they only played a few shows a year but because they had good connections those few shows happened to be the big festivals in the area that all us regularly gigging weekend warriors wanted to play but struggle to get. It was kind of funny because they claimed on Facebook they didn’t play shows because clubs didn’t want to pay them but all the shows they did play were freebies and their lack of gigging experienced showed imo
