I was very very briefly in a band in Manchester in the late seventies who gloried in the name

" The Nicaraguan Over Eighties Nudist Leapfrog Team"

Thought it was a brilliant name then ................ still do come to think of it

My trio is named "Matthew-Mark, Luke and Bubba" because here in the south Matthew-Mark is considered one name. We rejected the name "The Rhythm Methodists" and for one night only we performed as "The Brokeback Mountain Boys".
