Coolest Band Names

[Hellfire]

What bands have you found with awesome names? I'm just curious to see some cool band names. I found one today, a local band called Roshambo, which blew me away, as that is one of the coolest names ive heard, and i hadnt thought of it as one.

Saving Veronia is a local band here, and my old band Walking on Glass are two of my favorites.

After the Ron Atkinson thing here in the UK, some mates of mine renamed their band for a short period to "Big Ron and the Slaves". They actually got boked for a local gig (Of course I went to watch, I thought they'd be bood off) but no, they loved it. The lead singer wore a carboard cutout of Ron Atkinson's face, and the drummer, and the three other guitarists (Lead singer doesn't play guitar) had Chelsea players faces on (can't remember exactly who). They took their faces off though for most of the 20/30 minutes only "Ron"kept his on. They were invited back the next week but they turned it down, as they wanted them to play as Big Ron and the Slaves again.

It's probably one of the things that you've got to be there to see, they were shocked they got booked, and not bood off the stage. They were shitting themselves before they went on (In case anything was thrown at them).

Yep, I saw him live doing his Googlewacker thingy - funny as hell. I've never heard the band, he just credits them at the end of his book.

The Tokyo Ska Parade.

Uhm, do you mean the Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra? Or are search engines failing on me now?
