    Who could forget the their album Hairway to Steven . Chocolate Starfish was a front runner for our unnamed band, a a few years later it was taken up by some Aussies . I liked Lesbian Dopeheads on Mopeds alteregos for the more staid sounding Gaye Bykers on Acid . Man where have all the good names gone.

    Nine Inch Nails- I think is just another that belongs on the list.
    Seriously, there are some nqames that I have seen listed on a rooster that can't be allowed on this site- what has to be on someones mind to name their group some so profane. I so one that was honest about it -WE SUCK!
    They sure did when it came to playing music.

    When I was a senior at the Sem, a bunch of us were going to put a band together. It didn't go very far, but we were going to call ourselves "Hieronymus Bosch and the Chiggerz" with an umlaut over the Z.

    Or howabout shoulda been band names. In high school we always thought 'Dow Jones and the Industrialists' would get used someday, but to my knowledge....
