Being a lover of music as well as a failed musician, I've always been one of those people who had the desire but lacked the ability to be in a band. And like many others of the same ilk, I often think "Man, __________ would be a great name for my band....if I had one."
So...here goes
Popple Dungeon-My all time favorite-this name is from a back road/general area where I grew up in Chester, VT. I always it thought sounded cool, even as a kid. It would definitely have to be a heavy duty type of band-Zeppelin like.
Wild Tangents-inspired by my own rambling posts! could be a folk group, could be a spandex wearin', 80's type Hair band
Smokestack-for a reggae group or maybe metal (Smokestaq?)
Three Blind Mice-An acoustic duo (get it? duo is two and three is... never mind...)
Doctor Funkenstein and the Electric Hectic Mayhem-pretty self explanatory
Dark Hollow-an actual band from the late 80's Burlington, VT scene, doing (surprise!) Grateful Dead covers-still, I always loved the name (and the song). There is an endless supply of great names from the Dead's song titles and lyrics but I'll stop with just the one favorite.
Slippery-a Dave Matthews type jam band-maybe Slippery Slope
Brass Knuckles-a solo heavy metal artist backed by The Fuck You Orchestra-can you hear it? Knuckle-heads unite!
Ganglia-more metal
Pussyfoot-It sounded vaguely familiar so I checked it out-turns out it's already taken-Not sure what I had in mind but this was definitely not it-give a listen to the original Pussyfoot
Oh-na-na, Hi-ya, Oh-na-na, Hi-ya, Hi-ya! Pretty funny stuff! She's a 70's disco hottie that was a hit in Australia (no surprise considering Olivia Newton John, the Bee Gees and ABBA all being so popular there as well)
Feel free to submit your favorites
Peace to the Planet....
(hmmm... that could work as a name for a band too..)
Dude, I would def go see a band called "Popple Dungeon". Even if they sucked. Here's some that I came up with. "Raptor", "Piper", "Volcanica", "Playtrix", "Helen Earth". I could probably sit here for hours and think up names. I must say, mine are pretty lame comparatively.
