He’s also fascinated with being in a band that has NO name. Flyers or posters would have a picture of the band and when they’re going to play, but no name. They would just start playing without an intro.

You know, there’s been lots of cool potential band names that have cropped up here on the board. May I suggest Goat Cannon? As first proposed in [this](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=41020) thread. Considering the kind of music you’re planning on playing, it seems more appropriate. (BTW, on one of the pages in the thread, someone lists all the cool potential band names that have cropped up on the thread.)

From an ICQ chat I had today…i think a great band name would be…

“Latex Dangly Bits”

if I don’t get to submit…well I suppose I’d go with #1 even though either name makes me NEED to go see them.
