Thought I would start a thread with real oddball names for bands, songs or the creatures that created them. Was cruising around CD Baby and came across an outfit called Alien Gecko??!!??. Their 'brilliant' title for their song? 'Whenever I Have Sex I Think of Machines' - batteries are not included of course..........
Another oddball one was an imaginary band in an Irish comedy called 'Pathways to Freedom'. Very funny series. They called themselves 'Sperm.Com' - what next. The world is full of nutters!

there was a band in the UK in the early 1980s called Jerry Attric & The Reclining Rockers, always thought that was a funny name?!
Pink Floyd is a rather weird name...no im not joking, where did they get that from!?

lol, both of those were described by Martin and Sting as "meaning whatever you want it to mean".
what kind of bs is that?
big cop outs IMO!

Pink Floyd comes from two bluesmen - Pink Henderson and Floyd Council. (I think that's right)
