That'd be a good name for a band
my fertile yet scary brain

Readers of Dave Barry are familiar with this one. When Barry finds a particularly felicitous turn of phrase, he notes that it'd be a good name for a band. (Some examples that come to mind are the Foliage Eaters, the Radioactive Muskrats, Ruth's Hat, the Ozone-Depleting Troglodytes, and one of my favorites, Pinot Noir and His Nuances of Toast.)
So, fellow FReeper Word Mavens and fans of Mr. Language Person, what have you found (both on FR and in your real lives) that would make a good name for a band? (Feel free to include Barry's contributions, if you know any.)

I had an album, in the 70's , by a band named
" Ultimate Spinach"
They were awful.

You've never seen "Family Guy"? It's coming back on Fox next season. That's Quagmire, one of the neighbors. He's scummy yet hilarious.

Cool name.
If they play the stuff my son listens to they'd have chosen "Bleeding Elbow" as a name.
