I always wanted to name a band “Free Beer”

Yeah......if it would happen in reality - "Free...." would be an ideal preword to a bands name, like Free whisky !

Current bands:

Soul Destroyers -- soul covers plus much more, with lots of silliness. Name was already in place when I joined and after nearly 30 years is unlikely to change.

 

Woah, hang on - these Soul Destroyers? With Malcolm Catto on drums? Same band?

 

I used to have the vinyl of this 😎

[Rich]

Nope, different band.

[Adey]

White City Vultures.

I was working on BBC Television Centre demolition and refurb at the time...

HOAXX- pop and rock covers, the two Xs is just to make us easier to find on Facebook etc.

There was one other band named the same, a dance outfit that hadn't done anything for years, so...

All happy with it still, doesn't pigeonhole us.

 

I was in a band called Dumper for years, never choose a name whilst several pints in down the pub 😁

[Jackopie1]

Our funk and soul functions band: The Enrichments

 

The Indy project I'm playing for: Mighty One

 

A new Funk/Soul/Pop originals project: TBD.... any suggestions welcome- please help!

I like HOAXX - good name for a covers band! 

 

I know how you feel with the drunken deciding of names- I played in a band for years as a uni student called Moist...

Unfortunately I am not currently in a band, though there is a possible project coming up. The chap behind it wants to basically be a Motley Crüe tribute band… He wants to call it Mütley Crüe… Oddly, as bad as that name is, there is already a Crüe tribute band with that name…

I am hoping that we can cover more Hair Metal bands, but haven’t got a name for it yet.

 

The best band I was ever in, the most talented and absolutely lovely people, had the most boring band name ever… John Doe. I think that it was the singer’s idea. He wasn’t so talented, unfortunately. He fronted a band I had been in previously, which he named 66Crush… Mind you, he once wrote a song, that he was incredibly proud of, that started off with him and a woman crawling into the back of his three wheeled van…

Band that seems to have ground to a halt following various health issues - Space Monkey (covers, primarily 80s)

 

Originals prog band - A2rk. Named after the initials of the four founder members.

 

Covers band just working up to gigging level - Dirty Roses.

[tauzero]

Oh, and my duo with Mrs Zero, mainly covers and a few originals - Second Time Round

[BassAdder60]

RED HEART - female fronted rock covers from Iron Maiden to Alanis Morissette!!

 

Singer is a foxy red head from the USA and a great front person and singer 

We are very lucky to have her ❤️

I think I might call my next band "plus support" I reckon we could get a good few gigs out of that...

[BlueMoon]

I made a proposal - eventually rejected - for a previous cover band I was in. The name proposed was "CYA".

 

I thought it was clever, but the my band mates either didn't get it or thought it too weird. Hey-ho.

There was a band I knew years ago. “With Special guests”

 

They got people through the door with people wanting to know who the special guests were.

My main, predominantly experimental and dark, drone/ambient solo project "Fjernsind"

 

The name "Fjernsind" is a word play on the Danish word for "Tele-vision", "Fjern-syn", that directly translated means "Distant-vision" or "Remote-vision", but instead of "syn" ["vision"] as the last syllable, the Danish word for "mind", namely "sind", has been used.

My alternative folk project "...and for such a long time"

 

From a Molière quote: "We die only once, and for such a long time".

 

*

 

My stoner/doom rock project "all I nil", that has bass and drums as primary instruments.

 

*

 

My, predominantly experimental, electronic music with free, primarily bass, improvisations project "Itu [ɛt ˈtuː]"

 

"Itu" meaning "out of order"/"broken" in Danish.

 

*

 

 

And yes, very pleased.

Didn't go on to be Wet Wet....I'll get my coat.

Used to be in a band called Buckingham Phallus. Was a bit of a let-down.

 

i also remember a band called Matt Vinyl and the Decorators. - always likes that one.

 

😉

[nilorius]

80'rock covers + original songs - "UNSAID".

[super al]

I joined a band who renamed themselves Felis Leo back in 2018 because their old name since the mid 80s, Escapade, was already taken.

I don't think I would've joined them if they kept the old name 😂

 

 

Quite chuffed with the artwork for the latest EP, tis done by a tattoo artist.

[Elfrasho]

Wrap Party - Movie themed rock covers band- works better written down.... need to explain to most folk it's not some sort of Hip hop thing
