Another band name thread: Disruptive/Confusing Band Names

Besides having "Already Taken" as a band name, I can think of at least three more that would baffle someone if they saw it on a marquee.

"Free Beer!"
"In Concert"
"This Venue is Due for Demolition"
and my personal favorite...
"Zeppelin and the Stones"

Your suggestions?

Prayer Revival (which, by the way would be a interesting* name for a satanic metal band.)

* = In the chinese curse sense of the word.

When I was growing up, there was a local band that had a confusing name.

T.B.A.

As in 'To Be Announced'

Apparently, as their first gig approached, they still hadn't settled on a name, so the fliers were printed up with T.B.A. I guess it stuck.

Ive always wanted to call a band "Your Parents Having Sex" and maybe one day I will.

fourteen years pass...

If you happen to be able to access this Federal trademark infringement lawsuit involving identical band names -- Church Girls, LLC v. Rodgers et al -- the details are pretty great.

"Bad Brians" is quite funny, but when you're ripping off Bad Brains to this extent
