I know we've all come up with these in moments of inspiration, but unless you happen to be naming a band at that moment, they often die on the vine. NEVER AGAIN. Please to use this thread to immortalize your nuggets of genius.

I'll start:

    Careful, dangerously close to Hoobastank.

    Otis Shredding.

    Works equally well in the Worst Band Name thread.

    Great thread idea. I've had a ton of these, but of course, right now, I can only remember (mediocre) one:

    Coked-Out Ballerina

    I will be returning with more--and better--names.

    Hey,

    How about Secret Sessions? That was the name of a band I played drums in during high school. We got it by randomly turning to a page in some book.

    Peace,
