Are you serious? My alter-ego’s name would HAVE to be Baron Gunter Von Prolapse.

My favourite one I’ve only just discovered this week
[ul]
[li]The Super Funky Fever Monkeys[/li][/ul]
A couple I’ve known about for a while
[ul]
[li]Jesus H Christ & The Four Hornsmen of the Apocalypse[/li][li]Jesus Chrysler Supercar[/li][/ul]
That’s what I wanted to nominate.
I’m also partial for:
Os Mutantes
the Homosexuals
the Who (sort of plain in itself, but it’s just so iconic and it looks great in text)
Guess they’re real after all - “Oedipus and the Motherfuckers - Future Love”
(Blocked at work - is it any good?)
I have a song on my MP3 player which is in French so I don’t understand the lyrics at all.
But the band name is the Shebrews which always cracks me up so it stays there.
I actually came to post this. Old acquaintance of mine.
Detroit has some other great ones:
Thunderbirds are Now
The Detroit Cobras
3D Invisibles
The Dirtbombs
The Almighty Lumberjacks of Death (featuring Jimmy Doom)
Art Phag
I’ve always liked New Orleans own Morning 40 Federation.
For something more mainstream, I always thought Social Distortion was a cool name.
A few good LA band names from the 90s:
[ol]
[li]Snotty Scottie and the Hankies[/li][li]Anus the Menace[/li][li]Anal Cunt[/li][/ol]
Not exactly, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs was the name of the band I was thinking of, I don’t know why I typed it out that way - musta’ beena’ brainfart.
In other news,
the Parker Poseys
the Dipshits
And Then There Was Nun
the Smokin’ Hot Sexy Babes! (they were actually a bunch of beer-bellied grizzled bears.)
and you will know us by the trail of dead…real band, with two drummers
I submit that pretty much every user name on this board would make a great band name.
A Delaware band that almost made it big time-- LoveSeedMamaJump often shorted to LoveSeed.
Damn, beat me to it!
Yo-Yo Ma’s Ma’s Yo-Yo
