I have played gigs over the years where the supporting acts had some duff names, such as:
CHURN
I was expecting a dark metal outfit, or perhaps a Wurzels style bumpkin crew? Actually, they were a poppy indie type.
THE DONKEY SPOKE
What?????
BASTARD SQUAD
Based in Fife, Scotland, they always moaned about not getting any gigs. I think the name didn't help?
PIE, BEANS AND CHIPS
Rock outfit.
However, the one that really took the biscuit, and which needs no explanation as to why it was bad was..............
DARKIE.
Dear goodness!
