I can think of some crap ones
The The, Mr Mister, Caravan and The Alan Parson's Project I'm not familiar with any of their music, and with names like that I never will be: "What you listening to fella?" " Mr Mister, Caravan, The Alan Parson's Project and The The" Strangely the name Jimmy the Hoover suggests ( to me ) that he was a rock and roll drug monster so that's OK ( unless he doubled as a domestic cleaner/cleaning appliance in which case it is not |

Cliff Rescue and The Helicopters also known at some point as Ken Wood and The Mixers used to appear in gig listings when I were a lad - before I was old enough to go, so no idea if they were any good.

Carter Unstoppable Sex Machine for me too, Slippy blue.
Jimbob still lives at Crystal Palace; my son talks to him occasionally. Apart from the name; brilliant lyrics too. Half Man half Biscuit too. John Peel used to make them up; "and there will be music later from The Flying Cream Shots" was one of his. |

Bruce Flid and the Skid kids. I think I still have a copy of "The fkin cnts treat us like prkcs" by A Flux Of Pink Indians. |

By:
Gaye Bykers on Acid, Gay Dad and Sultans of Ping FC. I always thought Def Leopard was a particularly silly name for a band and they didn't even spell it right - a serious chit-chat faux pas.

They were bloody awful, but did have at least have a great song title in "I wish you were a beer!", and i recall one of them was particularly filthy looking. They had stage names like Venus Penis Crusher!

The Four Skins was a great name...kinda summed them up perfectly.
Alberto y Lost Trios Paranoias another cracker. Then the band named after a well known ex-C4 Racing presenter´s method of picking winners: System of A. Down |
|
By:
The Manic Street Preachers is a great name too.
I always said I'd call my band The Duration. Be great at festivals - "How long are you here for?", "Oh we're here for the duration" |
