make up some generic indie band names

Post by jdsowa » Mon Oct 25, 2004 8:11 pm

I like to come up with fictitious indie rock band names. Here are some of the ones I've come up with so far:

Chinese Buffet
Statistical Tie
Hepatitis A
Hepatitis C
Ferret Orphan
The John Ashcrofts

Okay. Your turn.

A friend of mine had a band called John Ashcroft Fan Club.

One I'd like to use someday, just for fun:

drmorbius,

I think all the bands you mentioned are already in the Elephant 6 collective.

The best real indie band name I've ever seen is The Cartridge Family.

They're a really good band, too. One of my bands played a show with them recently. Those in the Triangle NC area should check them out.
