Re: BAND NAME (12 replies, posted in My local band and me)
We thought of the name Mothers of Convention but that sounds too much like a Zappa tribute act other names Like sawdust on the floor perhaps sounds like a howling wolf tribute or a more traditional blues act .
Others such as usual suspects , killing floor demolition crew have all been used or are in use .
I do like Dougs suggestion Unsuitable .
