Replying to What would be an AWESOME band name?

CanadianSkiGod:

After much exasperation over such a seemingly trivial thing, I can still not find a cool band name for a band (that is not even sure of existing) that would be a classic rock and prog homage (with extensive jams and beginnings of songwriting). It would be really cool if, by miracle, someone on NS just randomly suggests a name that is really good. Hey, who knows?


NOTE:

People say the name of a band isn't important, but FUCK YEAH it is. There are timeless names like Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd... could you imagine Led Zep having any other name? The New Yardbirds for example (their original name, in a way)?

However, less impressive band names from bands that are arguably as good could be changed for better. Jethro Tull, for example; I find it okay, but people are apparently too dumb to grasp the "Jethro part". Their catalogue is impressive but they never achieved the total success of Led Zep and Pink Floyd, for example. Of course I'm not saying the name is responsible, far from it, but you get the gist of the message.

I've also tried the (alledged) Jerry Garcia method of pointing names at random in the dictionnary, but so far I've got: Copulative logic, Bushbeat, Bardolino, and other such crap.
