Another "Name My Band" thread:

I know there have been millions, and you need another like a holenyohead, and I expect you all hoard the best ones anyway, but got anything good?

A few comments:
We are all approaching 40, 4 piece, mostly covers, playing blues, Souls, and stonesy crap, with the occasional oddball Oasis or NRBQ or some such.

I'm not real into the pun names. And don't wasyte your energy typing "Free Beer"- I just did. I particularly like "The _____s" kinda names.

I may be starting a group with the 2 guys in my two duos, with some guys I used to be in the wedding n=bandwith, just to play every few weeks. Here is two names I like, but they all wouldn't...

- Whiskeyaxe
- Ravenous Love Sound

I LOOOOVE this one, thought I came up with it to use as a band name, but few others on the net beat me to it...

- Sweet Fancy Moses

Since the coolest name ever "Poontwang" already claimed by some girls out of Nashville, you're left with little to accurately describe your theme, but how about something almost as cool:
The Upskirts
Grinder
The Ruff Tones
The Unreliables

On second thought, your drummer might object.

My current favorite band name is The Swinging Medallions, and I'm trying to rip that off witut being to obvious.

So here's a subcategory: Sugest a plural noun to finish "The Swinging...."
Currently, I've got the following, none of which I'm totally happy with.

-The Swinging Wings
-The Swinging Souls
-The Swinging Gypsies


PS: Fuzzy would've hated this thread. And I dug Fuzzy a lot. Just beware you're p*ssing off the purists.
