Band Names

Filed Under :

Posted By : Steve Dixon (The Subliminals) | Comments : 24

suggestions (serious or stupid) for band names (and discussion of your faves)

out of north west bands, I always thought 'Four Candles' was an ace name

as a mountain lover, I thought 'Helvellyn 2' would be cool if they spelt it right :)

didn't really like 'The Fix' as a name

If I get to name our new band, I like the idea of 'Sheepletone'

Carla's dad thought 'Daktari's Tools' would be a good name for a band... cos it sounds a bit like 'dark, tarry stools'

I thought 'The Stools' would be good :)

so.. if you could name a band, what would you choose?
