Thread Name: Best band name ever?
Subject: RE: Best band name ever?
Years ago, a Liverpool based group, when doing floor spots, would call themselves "The Pleasure Organisation" so they could say to the MC if the name was too long, shorten it to "Pleasure Organ".
ME and Mrs T sometimes go out as an accordeon based band as "Gwynt Yn A Vegin" (Welsh). If we play in England, it translates to "Wind In The Bellows". Another local band is/was "John E Plank and the Planktones" alias "The Helsby Hillbillies". Irish type band "Upstairs in a Tent" conjours up allsorts for me :)
