Name for my new band
 

I'm thinking of starting a band that's sort of retro 60s/early 70s, quasi-Doors/VU/Stones. The first name that came to me was Scream of the Butterfly (from a Doors song). Also The Mindbenders.

Any other suggestions?

The Rolling Stones Tribute Band

Riders on the Stones

All suggestions are appreciated and will be considered.

The Sticks and Stones

Nice.

the sticky brown (sugar) fingers

The Stoned Roses

'Cause The Sticks and The Stones sounds like two bands in one.

Maybe just Sticks & Stones

the cocksucker blues band

The Exile on Murray Street

& for the record, it's not a tribute band. Just based loosely on that 60s sound. We'll do covers but not in a tribute kind of way and strive for our own material, our own look, etc.

Oh well, in that case: The This Is Not A Rolling Stones Tribute Band, Honestly Band

the 60's is not over no matter how much happened in the meantime band.

Ha. That's a mouthful!

Probably a little long, and a little off-target. I don't want to convey the sense that we're not aware of music beyond the 60s. That's not the point at all.

You think?

The 60's

the (insert name of your city or state) stones

The Should I Get Stoned While Listening To The Stones? Band

sword in the stones

the blues smothers

Okay, so probably nothing with the Stones as part of the name. I get what you're trying to tell me.

I think right now my favorites are the two I proposed. I like Sticks & Stones, but again, I don't want to be misconstrued as a Stones tribute band.

Hmmm. Maybe The Six Ohs.

I see yr point about the tribute band name. That's tricky though. It has to be off enough so that people don't misconstrue it.

Yeah, all these names with ''stones'' in them are a little unimaginative. After all, your range of influences is wider than just them.

The Rolling Doors

What about that?

The Tapir Trio

You forgot "underground".
The Rolling Doors Underground.

That's awful...:(

The Beatles Rolling Behind Doors in The Velvet Underground

^^ perfect !!!^^

He's from Penis ( I don't know where is it), so do you suggest he should name his band " The Penis Stones" ?
Sounds weird. :rolleyes:

Ha ha ha. Assholes.

Right, we got him a name and now it's time for the first single's title. I'll go for ''Ruby Wednesday''.

I've never noticed you were that ungrateful...

The Green Trees.

Hey, The Ungrateful Undead. Perfect!

Ah ah !!
I hope you're kiddin.

i think that's already taken

The Stony Armchair.
