I kind of like the name Throw Like a Girl. Also: Without Incident and Memory Serves.

4. It would be an all girl band called The Pink Slips..
:rofl:


Really though, I have no idea. But I have no musical talent, so it's not something I'll ever have to worry about. :rofl:

7. Screaming Mimi's (Alt could be Screaming Banshees)
Especially fun with an all female band. Screaming Willies would work if you are an all guy band, I guess...

One other option I always kind of liked is "The Infomercials."

10. Vicious Tarts.
I came up with a name for my husband's band that he and his bandmates like: Dalai Lama and the Sacred Cows.

I have no idea if they will use it.

17. Ingurgitor.
We'd be a goregrind band. Our songs would be no longer than 30 seconds, would be between 50% and 90% breakdown, played in dropped B (or even dropped A) tuning, and all of our titles and lyrics would be the most vulgar things we can think of.

20. My Dear Bif!
seems pretty good, I'd go with that.

There is a great female folk singer from Austin that does a song about GWBush that has the line:

"...but he
throws the bomb
like a girl

I can't remember her name right now. Her sidekick/producer is Loyd Mains (father of Dixie Chick Natalie Mains).

There's a name just begging to be used: Dick Sees Chicks (See Chicks Come).
