OldGit Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 You might like to read this recnt thread on the subject of choosing band names [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?s=&showtopic=6729&view=findpost&p=71499"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?s=&sho...ost&p=71499[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldGit Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 (edited) These days you just have to do the Google search first and if there's a band already, anywhere, called that just cross it orf the list and walk away ... Nope Can't have Decades... [url="http://www.thedecadesband.com/"]<a href="http://www.thedecadesband.com/" target="_blank">http://www.thedecadesband.com/[/url]</a> Nice jackets! Nice bass I liked Lush Puppies but then again so did the Lush Puppies [url="http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=134379635"]<a href="http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fusea...endid=134379635" target="_blank">http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fusea...endid=134379635[/url]</a> Edited November 3, 2007 by OldGit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lush was also a rather well known band in the 90's as well. [url="http://www.4ad.com/lush/"]http://www.4ad.com/lush/[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MB1 Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 (edited) MB1. These are all pretty bad! you got anymore? .......or do i have to vote for one of these?

Breakfast Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 They're all horribly bad but you are a rock covers band so I'm figuring that is your intention. In that vein I've gone for the most horribly bad yet somehow also great "eROCKtion" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E_MaN Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 (edited) They all seem pretty bad tbh....One good Idea is to take the name of a song by another band, like Ten Thousand Thrones or Gravemakers and Gunslingers or something. Btw they're songs by Testament and Coheed and Cambria FYI Edited November 3, 2007 by E_MaN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buzz Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 Rock Cake? Rocksticks (as in Sticks of Rock from the seaside)? Chill Until Blue (read off a Carling can)? Hooves of satan however is what I've chosen on the poll. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lushuk Posted November 4, 2007 Author Share Posted November 4, 2007 Hi folks thanks for taking the time to vote/respond. Ive run the poll on another board and up to now the results are quite different, strange eh! I think the key must be to vote before looking at the latest results! Like the thread Si put the link to says a band name is nought till its a band name! Thanks again keep voting was hoping for 100 + votes!

bnt Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 [quote name='lushuk' post='83374' date='Nov 4 2007, 01:28 AM'][/quote]There's already been a band named [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lush_%28band%29"]Lush[/url], actually. Now they're a chain of shops selling soaps & bath bombs. The Coffin Dodgers, meanwhile, is in use by another group, [url="http://fp.jculf.plus.com/shuffle/theband.htm"]here[/url].

Paul Cooke Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 Fat Rascal? a "Fat Rascal" is a traditional Yorkshire rock cake found in Betty's Tea Rooms...

HarryPotter Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 (edited) Given your ages and possible appearances, why not something tongue in cheek like '[i][b]Middle age spread[/b][/i]'.

MB1 Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 MB1. Ended up picking ..........Rock Stock And Barrel!......sounds close enough to Cock Rock and Flannel! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy67 Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 love the name lush, however, already know of a band with that name! what about 'lush of ages'? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lushuk Posted November 4, 2007 Author Share Posted November 4, 2007 The band lush finished in 96 so would it matter that much? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingrayfan Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 (edited) Voted for Lush as it's the most non-descript of the lot and so you won't get tired of it. Avoid puns and play on words like the plague - they sound cheesy and make most people groan. It's not easy picking a band name though - so good luck! Edit: It doesn't matter if there was a band called Lush ten years ago if you're only pitching at the local covers market.

It really depends how litigious 4ad feel like being - they've still got CDs in their current catalogue. Plus given the penchant for so many bands reforming, it's probably agro you could do without.

MB1 Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 MB1. With the amount of bands re-emerging (apparently through popular demand) it might be seen as somewhat misleading.Not a good idea if the back catalogues still available, theyll still have the name under copyright.
