I'm intrigued by some of these names.
I'm interested in taking a look at some of these performers.
Must be very local bands, can't say that I have heard of any of them. But always fun to listen to new talents.
ReplyDeleteI, too, wonder at the thinking behind the names of some of the bands.
ReplyDeleteI like going to the big concerts but I love going to see local bands and musicians. It makes me realize that there are lots of creative people out there.
ReplyDeleteIt would be interesting to know the back story on how these bands came up with their names.
ReplyDeleteWhat? No Creeping Jenny or Putrid Moss?
ReplyDeleteI like the The Nervous Eaters and The Fogcutters.
ReplyDeleteOne would think the Strangled Darlings would have a hard time singing. I love the names Lunch Cult and Heavy Trash and I'd have to check out the Geeks who Drink just see if they were really geeky.
ReplyDeletewow. creative namery.
ReplyDeleteWow, there are many bands playing near you. So, which band are going to hear?
ReplyDeleteLunch Cult, Strangled Darlings, and Black Veiled Brides. It could be titles from horror films.
ReplyDeleteIndie groups have the best names. The Squid Jiggers sounds intriguing...
ReplyDeleteYour guitar?
ReplyDeleteLooove it! You'll have to let us know which of these groups you see Birdman and whether they live up to their name or not :)
ReplyDeleteI'd like a job dreaming up band names!
ReplyDeleteSome of these names are really fun!
ReplyDeleteFun names! I like Pugwash, I the word sound works for me. Our locals don't sound as much fun as yours. This weekend some of the groups here: BluMeadows, Luck of the Draw, Soul Ducks, Dos Locos, Cat's Meow Jazz Band, Pretty Twisted.
ReplyDeleteI must come from a different musical planet! I've only heard of the Squid Jiggers...My local favorite up here is The Leaky Boot Jug Band...
ReplyDeletethey have very colorful names lol
ReplyDeleteI think my favorite Indie band name is Heartless Bastards. It's just fun to say it. Not on your docket yet; I guess they're having too fun being heartless or bastards or both over our way.
ReplyDeleteThese could be interesting.
ReplyDeleteThe Mastodon must be great
ReplyDeleteOh boy! These band names are great, Birdman. I think some of them would make awesome book titles: Lunch Cult, Strangled Darlings, The Cabin Project, Suicide Girls, and Geeks Who Drink.
