I have mentioned that I joined my Brother’s band as a vocalist/bass player.
We are going to do a set of my originals where I get to show off my guitar, singing and lyric writing talents. But we need a name for the band. And so I once again come to you, my loyal friends, hat in hand, to ask for free advice. Here is the list of potential band names that I have been jotting down for the last couple of days. If one catches your eye, put in a vote.
Thank you, as always.

Pouring My Art Out

Said in a Cockney accent.
people with glass jaws shouldnt use cockney accents………
Dude, that’s funny.
glad you enjoy….and armless people shoudnt play bass guitar unless they are jimi hendrix and are really good with their tongues………….
Oh, I have to use my tongue?… cause I was thinking…
hmm yes weel that too….would be quite a novelty….mind you dont electrocte yourself though……….shocking indeed
Indeed… I love that word.
i see my spelling is up the creek this morn……still early not quite awake yet……….
No spell checker?
there probably is…but i avoid computer asisted anything whenever i can…………
That is a funny thing to say for a blogger…
yip but one has to compromise sometimes………..
gotta keep your standards.
indeed…..but there will never be any holy cows in my mind…………..
How about PITAs Pain in the Asses… LOL Sorry, I love saying Pita and got to work it in…. 😀
Prep. H.
Oh my head! I started reading through the list…wondering if it might be so… that I could offer up an amazing name for a band… someone very clever had uttered the possibility in a recent comment somewhere… keep reading… keep reading… my heart beating faster and faster as I made my way through the mass of names… yes… almost there…. almost there… and then … right as I was getting ready to … jump the gun and start to leave you a reply… BANG! Like an exploding cigar in a Yosemite Sam cartoon it hit me… “MEAT BABIES”… uggg… so close to greatness… Alas, I live again to try another day… 😉
I put it last, after the silly ones, just to see if anyone would notice. Thank you for noticing.
Really really? I haven’t been reading your blog for very long and don’t know your music, but I’ve seen your talent, and I don’t see anything that does you justice. That’s my opinion, for what it’s worth. That said, I don’t have a suggestion either. How stupid is that? I do wish you luck with your choice and your music. Really really 🙂
That is such a nice thing to say. Thank you so much.
The Tramp Stampers, Milfbusters, Amateur Gynecologists, Fred Zeppelin, Built For Speed(o), Barry McCockiner and the Hot Saucy Pizza Girls, Purple Squat
I will mention those to the guys.
Ahhh… I commented on your post. It didn’t show up. I am being called spam again… fix me, Mr. Wizard…
Smog already one of my fave bands but like the meat babies, the ninja clown and the tramp one, I like tramps
Who doesn’t. Those were some of my favorites. I got a little silly to see who was paying attention.
Dear pmao,
I like Second Strings, Left Shoe and The Hobgoblins.
Love Dotty xxx
Hey, those were on my list of the better ones too. I threw in a few joke names to see if anyone was paying attention.
No Refund, Expired Warranty, Red Sky.
Buster Hyman and the Cherry Pickers made me smirk but it won’t work.
I threw in some funny ones to see if you were paying attention. And you were.
Okay, so this is the 2nd time I’ve done the right thing, where is the prize? If I’m going to do all this work, and do it well, I need a gift.
Hey, I was just reading more of your old posts, so stop whining. One present at a time. But my comments are not showing up? Help me….
They were showing up, what happened?
Maybe they are calling me spam again. See if I am in your spam box… Man, that sounded wrong, sorry.
You were in spam- blogger purgatory.
Another good name for a band… spam-blogger purgatory…
Where is my prize?
What do you want? A custom picture for your blog? A letter of merit? I could do headstands, but I might injure myself.
Headstands are out, you will hurt yourself and I couldn’t bear the guilt.
You would get over it.
Maybe you could just have them all?
You better be talking about band names, young lady…
I’ll let you play around with that comment.
I already finished. Sorry. No staying power.
lol
I needs me some of them there pills… If this comment line lasts more than 4 hours, seek the aide of a psychiatrist immediately… or an editor.
too funny
Not Flotsam and Jetsom, please. I always confuse one from another.
I also thought just ‘Flotsam’ would be better.
By far. Jetsom conjures up images of Rosie, Elroy, George and crew.
The Jetsams. That might work.
I have always thought the difference was that flotsam was wreckage that floated off the ship, and jetsam was the stuff they threw off (jettisoned) to keep the ship afloat. Hey, how about ‘Still Afloat”?
I like still afloat.
I like wasted youth. If you grew up in the 60s/70s, it kind of says it all.
I did grow up then. And I do like that one. Thanks for taking the time.
You’re welcome. I was there too.
I miss the music. I have been making CDs of the best songs. Montrose, Bad Co. Foghat. Oh, man.
Me too. i just bought the J. Geils Band “Live, Full House” cd. Quite Probably the best party album ever recorded.
We had it going on. They teased us about the bell bottoms for 20 something years… now they are back.
Ninja Clowns gets my vote!
I invented that. We could even use the picture I did in my ninja series as out logo. Thank you so much. You are the first to cast a vote.
