Re: Help with a Band Name

One of the guitarists went to London for work and he came back with an effects pedal call "Bad Monkey".
And everyone went OOh Aaah what a good name for a band.. but the name was taken already by a local Aust band.
So the monkey thing was trying to play on that and see what came out.
The previous name was NVR2L8 (like never too late and the band logo became a number plate with NVR2L8) That came about as everyone in the band is 40+++ and the standing joke was that it was never to late to start the world tour. But we think its a bit too self depreciating and pidgeon holes us into a bunch of geriatrics.

We just do covers at the moment
The previous set list looked like
Garry Moore Still Got the Blues
Hoodoo Gurus Miss Freelove '69
The Angels Take a Long Line
Daddy Cool Eagle Rock
ZZ Top Gimme All your loving
Billy Idol White Wedding
AC/DC Highway To Hell, Long way to the top
Jackie Wilson Sweetest feeling
Joe Jackson Look Sharp
Eagles Desperado
Eagles Heartache Tonight
Eagles How Long
Matchbox 20 Let's see how far we've come
Reef Place Your Hands
Foo Fighters Learning To Fly
Coldplay Hardest Part
The Church Under The Milky Way
AC/DC You Shook Me All Night Long
Bernard Fanning I Wish You well
Aerosmith Walk this Way
Screaming Jets Better
Ugly Kid Joe I hate everything about you
Stevie Ray Vaughn This House is Rocking
Stray Cats Rock This Town Stray Cat Strut
Paul Kelly Before Too Long
Hootie and the Blowfish I only wanna be with you
Can't remember the rest...


But now its more
Fleetwood Mac
Melissa Etheridge
Patti Smith
Dixie Chics
Plus some of the older stuff above that fits in on the night with the new girls voice.

Of the list I also liked Rock n Ruin. That came when I picked up one of the guitarists after work on the day some kind soul smashed into my car in the car park and drove away leaving me with a three grand work of damages ($1,000 bucks for the wing mirror of a mercedes.. your kidding me... do I get a trip to Germany to pick it up?... anyway I digress).. so he asked what happened to the car I started raving about the whole world going to Rack and Ruin!.. Ooh Aaah good name for a band Rock n Ruin.
