I figured we might as well start this thread, and see which band names appear on both :)
My personal favourite: Music for Mapmakers.

Arrogant Worms - http://www.arrogant-worms.com/ A quasi-fruvous-like-band. And you will know us by the trail of the dead... Got confused cos their album was called Madonna.� Thought she'd REALLY changed direction...maybe she should in that direction, would sure beat her attempts at rapping, mIssy Eliot version of that song is SO much better...

World Inferno Friendship Society The Decepticons One Cool Guy Adam's Not Funny Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A, Start The Shitty Beatles "Are they good?" "They SUCK!" >Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A, Start The Contra unlimited lives code!!! hahaha! sweet! that's too awesome. My personal favourite band name is credited to my brother for coming up with it, although i imagine somewhere there's a band called this: Diet Starts Monday. That's just too perfect. If i were to start a band tht would be our name, and our first hit would be "Calories don't count when you eat standing up". -jen

Hawkwind... it's corny but sounds cool :)
also my favorite spoof band name would have to be the Rutles, spoofing the beatles and their best spoof song would have to be "Major Happy's Up And Coming Once Upon A Good Time Band" which spoofed Sgt.Pepper's :)

Hookers & Blow, but I'm going to assume that not everyone reads Blender with as much detail as I do (or at all for that matter). Really, it's not that bad after getting past all the scantily clad women... besides, not everyone reads Dirty Linen. :-)
::snork:: Okay, I was scanning. Yeah, those bands rule. ;oP --Rachel

bentley rhythm ace (bra) super furry animals (sfa) gorky's zygotic mynci (pronounced gorky's psychotic monkey) and oh I forget now but Super Furru Animals had Sir Paul McCartney on one of their songs eating celery and are th first band ever to release their album on CD and DVD at the same time.
I have some SFA stuff and I really like "Ysbeidiau Heulog" from Mwng, and "(Drawing) Rings Around the World" from Rings Around The World.
Paul "Macca" MCCartney was doing his celery thing on the album rings around the world. This is a band I liked when i was thirteen when my (soon to be) boyfriend taped some sfa stuff for me and coloured in the heart on Hermann loves Pauline. That was how i knew he liked me. Didn't last though we still talk mostly about music, that will be our eternal bond.
Yeah i posted this twice so now have edited it to make me look only marginally foolish!

I maintain the "God is My Copilot" is the best band name ever.

There are bands that took their names from two of my favorite Z movies. Robot Monster and Mars Needs Women. I have a MNW album.

There likely -is- a basnd with this name, but if not I would love to have a group called 'The Heebs' a friend of mine had a great name for a hypothetical band " The Big, Shiny, Black Leather Boot of Opression' 'Nuf Sed Chixdiggit! Shooglenifty Hoobastank yeah. cool names
Commander Cody was my favorite as a kid since I used to love watching the old Commander Cody serials on TV.
i just wanted to take this moment to say that anyone that hasn't heard the flaming lips (or seen their cd case) is really really really really really really missing out!
No, forget just looking at the CD art... everyone needs to get Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots... what a freak.ing.great.cd.� AND go see them live too.
Yeah there's a similar one around the New York area I used to see flyers for. "Free Beer and Chicken"...I always thought it was brilliant. :)
I�borrowed a modest mouse t-shirt off my friend for three weeks as it fitted me better than him (as it is a girl's skinny fit tee).� I have never heard their music but I always liked the name as it is cute.� Are they any good?

Just so they have have the band name ALWAYS first on an alphabetical list: !!! Yup, the name of the band is !!!.
Maybe you don't. Maybe you just put your eyebrows up and make surprised/scared eyes. :)
OOO a math joke from a poet.
I was on the math team in Intermediate school. The problem is that my school only went up to the 8th grade and all the schools we competed against went up to the 9th. One meet there was a question about 5! and we didn't know what it meant. We thought it was FIVE with emphasis :-)
Puhleeze, every mathematician is aware that fives are notoriously phlegmatic. Eights on the other hand can be driven to a frenzy at the slightest provocation. Thus the expression "crazy eights!"

Have I mentioned Sex Mob? They not only have a great name but they keep getting voted "Best Jazz Band in NYC." You have to love a band with a slide trumpet.
