Band Name Contest

I need a band name for a new rock project. Contest begins now. Winner will announced on stage by aforementioned rock band, at first gig, most likely at the prestigious Lennys, or The Earl, or similar ATL venue. Winner will be invited backstage to party and do beer bongs with aforementioned rock band, and may help the band load out if necessary.

    Van Fucking Halen (just plain stupid)

    Man, you’re on a roll. I think “Stop me before I kill again!” is my favorite. The long band name is in vogue too.

    I’m ripping this one off from Mike Wright. I don’t know if he’d be mad that I’m spreading it to the public… You should have him in the band so that you can use the name.

    Or how about Incestuous Circle? it’s so Atlanta!
