Dry Fucking Cleaning sounds like a fairly good name for a band?

(Thinks about countering that argument by compiling a list of really shit 70s/80s band names but then decides life is too short).

They could shorten it to Dry Fucking

Whereas in the nineties bands had sensible names like Kitchens of Distinction, Foreheads in a Fishtank and Miranda Sex Garden

Absolutely refusing to ever to listen to a note of music by Amyl and the Sniffers unless they change their name. And don't give me "you're missing out!", I'm sure they're great but so are loads of bands. If anything I'm making space in my listening for someone with a proper name.

Is this a Public Service Broadcasting announcement?

Looking to come with a band name when I was in school, I flicked through the dictionary to come up with Posthumous Gudgeon.
Gutted we didn’t make it big with such a killer name.

I guess all the good ones are already taken

simonfinbow.bsky.social•11 days ago

I saw a band called ‘Pencil’ last week. I mean how did that get past the first meeting?
