I will get sued, but I really wanna call my band The Ladyfest Planning Committee. Please think of band names off the top of your head that sound like a good idea to you. Don't worry though. You don't actually have to start a band.

Askem.

So when anyone says "what's that band called?" you can reply "Askem", and be really annoying.

Scott, what did you mean by "you don't actually have to start a band"?

For punk rock, I'll be: "Up, Yours and Coming"
For heavy metal: "Rock Saxophone and his Amazing Harbingers of Disobedience"
For hardcore: "Mars LaVolta"
For the dancefloor: "Dat GUI"
erm... classical... "Mozprog"?

Dick Hertz and the Burning Sensations

There's already been a band called the Burning Sensations.

When we were starting our current band, a friend from the UK tried to convince us to call it 'Exit'. He said "think of all the free publicity, mate. I mean, "exit", that's everywhere innit? People see it in every building, driving on the freeway..."

We did not call our band 'Exit', so it's still available for the taking.

I was really excited about naming my band The Godzillas,
but the other bandmates wouldn't go for it. So we settled
for The Beautiful Damage. Needless to say, with a name like that,
we broke up within months.

Nonsensical phrases usually pop into my head when I'm half awake in the morning taking a shower. I sometimes think they'd make good band names, at least until I'm more awake, when I forget them. Today I thought of "Open-Toed Salmon" and "Chunky Breakfast". For some reason these phrases often sound like hippy jam-band names.

I always went for bad puns, like Crustacean Wagon, or Fission Chips. Sadly, both of those sound like bad Ska bands.

I was in a band called The Flamin' Rutebagas. Yes, the misspelling was on purpose - Def Leppard and the like were still rather omnipresent. We sucked, and didn't even live up to the name - though our first record was going to be "Turnip The Volume", which still makes me smile.
