Band Name Puns

[Mykesbass]

A friend who runs several music quizzes posted about a quiz where teams try to outdo each other with puns or plays on words of band names. This one I thought was an absolute belter: Al Green was my Valet.

 

I know there are many on here that love a good pun - please fire away with your contributions.

What do you call Simon Rattle using the vacuum cleaner at night with the lights off?

The answer is, of course, Orchestral Man Hoovers in the Dark.

Showing my age - used to be Andre Previn!

Not an original one - in fact the Stones themselves use it, and not very punny... but it's true and all I've got right now:

I managed to convince the rest of my team in the company "10K steps challenge" to have the name The Strolling Bones.

(probably not a pun, but...) The old tried and trusted Dire Straits and Chris Rea collaboration...

I always liked Frank Zappa meets The Mothers Of Prevention.

Not sure if it's a pun as such, but I really liked this one: grebo band "Gaye Bikers on Acid" used to play under the alias "Lesbian Dopeheads on Mopeds"
