Help! Names for Funk Bands

Sorry for joining the topic so late - I should check my statistics more often.

I'm glad to see my band name generator was mentioned.
Just thought I'd offer 2 of my favorite names I got from that:
Disappointed Helium Pirates and
Abandoned Windshield Planet

Please - before anyone decides to use those - check around to make sure they haven't already been taken. LOL
 
Quick anecdote-
I just picked up a 2-fer-1 Con Funk Shun disc...in the liners, (bandleader) Felton Pilate sez the band in its earliest days was called Project Soul.
Record execs thought the name might alienate some potential buyers.
So the band comes up with Con Funk Shun.
Pilate sez "...they did not like "Soul", but "Funk" was OK"?
