That'd be a good name for a band
my fertile yet scary brain | 11/20/01 | Xenalyte

Posted on 11/20/2001 8:17:29 AM PST by Xenalyte

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.)

Utter and shameless vanity - but I figure we could all use the laughs we're undoubtedly gonna get from this one!

Oh, my Lord, I never even thought how many FReeper handles would be excellent band names! Okay, is there a central list of all of us? That would be an invaluable resource.
