My friend is in a nameless band. I gave him all sorts of suggestions for band names, and he's turned them all down.
Since he doesn't want them, I've decided to compile my own list of possible things to name the band that I will never start.
My list:
- Fistful of Half-Eaten Roses
- Lost Tourist
- Tragic Element
- Wanted Poster
- Capture
- Accidental Highway
- Fake Idea
If you have any interesting band name suggestions for either me or my friend, please post.

I once knew a band that changed their name pretty much every day. The one that sticks out in my mind is Distortion. They picked this because one of the band members fell asleep on the floor (next to an amplifier). When he woke up, he saw the Distortion button and said, "That's the name of our band!" It kinda reminds me of The Simpsons when Homer changed his name to Max Power..."I got it off a hairdryer."

When I was a youth I was in a band called Flamboyant Mucuous. My cousin then formed a band called The Throbbing Albinos.
Since then I've wanted to start a band called The Poontanglers of Justice.

"Transexual Female Shotputters sounds like the name of a punk rock band." - Matt_G, in a different thread.
So, Matt. Do you stand by that suggestion? Or do you now prefer "Donna's Understudy"? (since you appear to no longer be online, I will be expecting your response in the morning)
