If you were starting a band what names would you pick?

[DarrenTR1970]

Brandenburg Gate - German industrial/techno music.

 

[XCV330]

I use Arboghast for electronic music I make. It was the name of a ship I particularly liked in The Expanse, and also an interesting 4th century person in the later days of the Western Roman Empire. I don't have any great love for the name but I needed to pick something that didn't appear to be taken .

 

[DarrenTR1970]

Cher and Cher Alike.

 

[Toril Toran]

Jack and the Beasts
For an all-girl band: Jill and the Beanstalks
Techno-Funk Social Club

 

[Toril Toran]

Merry Christmas!
Happy Hanukkah!
Happy New year!

As long as that's not Monkee-inspired, make it so.

Speaking of which

[DarrenTR1970]

Inanimate Carbon Rod

 

[Owain Taggart]

Fred and the Flintstones
Nah, you might get sued for copyright

Alternatively, you could go with Fred and the Flintrocks, which I think would be Ok and get the general idea across

 

[Malicia]

Sweepy Todd

A traditional barbershop quartet but in every concert one of the members is dressed as Sweep from Rainbow. After each song Sweep shares a funny, sometimes tragic story. Ticket price includes complimentary tea and cake. Seated only. Andy Kaufman probably already thought of that.

 

[Velocity]

Winsome Wedgie

 

[Qonundrum]

Manic Parsley

(No such name I know of exists and I'll merrily puke up any random assortment of words and better than any computer in a can can... )

 

[Toril Toran]

Quantum Giants

additional:

Legitimate Businessman’s Club

 

[Owain Taggart]

Thought of another: Pier Pressure. A group of out of work fisherman join up to sing the blues in a maritime style.

That reminded me of this advert. There's a 2019 film about the group that was on over Christmas but I missed it.
