Great band names, terrible band names. Make up your own!

[Wonderer67]

I been thinking about this for a while.

1. Post a great band name.
2. An awful band name.
3. And hell, make up your own band name.

Put all the commentary in you want.

Try to keep it to one of each per post. Or if you’re just posting one, then one per post.

Great: Dead Kennedys.
Bad: car seat headrest.
Made up: Fistacuffs (prolly is one named that now, but in the mid 80s I thought it’d be a great hardcore band name.)

 

[PicassosPleasure]

Great: The Kinks (We've all got some.)
Bad: The Greatful Dead (Sorry, Dead-Heads)
Made Up: Picasso's Pulse (Known for erotic lovemaking music.)

I always liked the NAME greatful dead, but I don’t care for the band at all.

Good: string cheese incident
Bad: lettuce

These are both jam bands that are actually similar to the Grateful Dead, and I must say that I don’t like either band!
