Okay you rabble, I need yer help...

As you may remember if you have an exceptionally good memory, I've been trying on and off to get a new band together since December. I THINK I finally have a full lineup now, though we won't be starting rehearsals til September (one of the guitarists is a student, he isn't back at uni til then).

The problem is, I'm having real trouble thinking of a good name for this 'ere enterprise. All the names I've thought of so far are either rubbish or have been done before. Now, you lot are all into broadly the same area of music as me - any of you any ideas for a good name for a noisy, sleazy, punky rock 'n' roll band?

I would start by sticking as many words as you can think of in a hat and pulling two out - it works quite well!

Here's a few starters off the top of my head:
Teenage, Suicide, Kicks, Shocks, Good, Black, Lipstick, Motorbike, Killer, Baby....


Oh it's too early in the morning to think straight!!! [img]redface.gif[/img]

This wont give you a good name probably but its good fun, just keep pressing refresh on your browser.... http://www.elsewhere.org/cgi-bin/bandname [img]graemlins/music.gif[/img] (I've just got the classic's "Puppyfinger" & "A taste of men"!!!! off it)

but it's better than an average name [img]wink.gif[/img]

how about Sea-Cucumber??

What about Exploding Codpiece!

Cheers Wopper! That's a cool as hell logo; trouble is the name doesn't really suit the band. If there's one thing we're not it's bubblegum...shame really. [img]frown.gif[/img]

No please not a fish thread.

I aways wanted to use Urchins in a band name. Never got the chance.

Just realised Fish/Urchins oh god, NOOOOOOOOO

Hey Lee, Geoff here.

Good idea to get these fine folks to help us find a name. I still like Bastards of Disaster myself but Id still like to hear what folk think.

How do Geoff! Didn't know you came on here...
To be honest, I've thought about Bastards Of Disaster and I'm afraid I'm not that keen. Sorry mate, but I'm sure we can come up with something better between us. It's still on the "possible" list, anyway.

Yeah funny thing, found my way here after googling your name, it then came up with an article from Sleazgrinder where you are quoted from here and I came along and had a look.

Name things fine Im not bothered just thought id see. Hope the good folk can give some more sugestions.

Maybe not, eh? [img]biggrin.gif[/img]

Anyone else?

(BTW, Buttz, been looking at yer shop for sale advert and I have to say, I'm jealous as hell. I've always wanted to live down there. Shame I don't have ?350K doing nowt...)

I can do it for ?349,000 .... if that helps...

Take a wee break from my revising to bump this to the top. Havent thought of any more ideas yet though. Annoyingly enough a few of the ones i thought of are already taken.

OVENBOTTOMERS

LMAO [img]biggrin.gif[/img] [img]biggrin.gif[/img]
Tony T-cake & the bun boys

Yeah dont worry they werent serious suggestions. Just making the point that I have enough pseudonyms already.

So all know Aesir is pronounced ay-zeer. It was the name of one of the two groups of Norse God's (the other being the Vanir). Odin and Thor were Aesir Norse God's, I use it cos Ive been compared to Thor on more than one occasion (Im big, blond and like waving big hammers arround).

Heres some names off the top of my head

The Body Shots or just Body Shots
Whiskey Haze

Im sure i can think of more given time

"....THE WHITE EARED TROUSER ELEPHANT......"

Now that one's not bad... [img]biggrin.gif[/img]

Ok Ovenbottomers??? No no I dont think so.

As to the other Tony T-Cake is not a good nickname for me, it conjours odd images to my mind so I dont think so.

Geoff is what I go by (its my middle name) have also been called Aesir and Reyziel before. So if anyone wants to think of something with that in mind.

<font size="4" face="Arial">Well, nobody will be able to pronounce Aesir properly, and Reyziel looks like a bad hand at Scrabble, so I'm not sure if we'll be able to do anything there... [img]biggrin.gif[/img]
