Need a clever name for a country band

I thought that I had nailed it with The Highway 50 Band. So I googled it, and apparently, every 150 miles or so there is a different Highway 50 Band. I suppose I could do the me too game and use it anyway, but I'd rather not. Any and all suggestions surely welcomed. I've got gigs booked, but no name.

I've been listening to old time radio. And have fallen in love with a show called Melody Roundup. In it, bands like The Sons of the Pioneers take requests from soldiers. The hosts include Hopalong Cassidy, California Carlson, Walter Brennan, etc. But my favorite--and I would love to see the band called this--LUM AND ABNER!!!

3,000 Miles (that's the length, roughly, of US 50 from here in Ocean City, Maryland, to Sacramento).
