So, my friends and I like to make up really stupid and punny cover band names. By way of example, I came up with three Dwight Yoakam cover band names: Yoakam if you Got 'Em; Yoakam . . . it damn near killed him; and, Dwight Power. I thought this could be a fun stupid thread where people could contribute more.

[Electric Sodomy]

Musicians
Anne Murray Head (power-punk covers of Easy Listening and 80s New wave)
Carol King Crimson
Clint Black Sabbath
Clint Blaxsploitation
Clint Blacula
Back in Clint Black

Actors
Smorgasborgnine
Un Chien Andalou Albano
Sean Connereefer


This has limitless potential, but I have limited time.

[Batman]

Black Black Sabbath (funk metal)

[Ryan Who Loves Punk]

Qwerty: The All Video Game Cover Band.

[Batman]

Ryan, you do know that there are real bands that do video game music, right?

[Andy]

Faux Oyster Cult
Fake Sabbath
Not Led Zeppelin
Guys pretending to be the Beatles
A really bad version of The Doors
We play something that sounds similar to, but not exactly like, the music of Warrent

I think there is an Alice Unchained in LA.

There's also a couple of all-female metal cover bands who have fun names. Off the top of my head:

AC-DShe
Thundherstruck
Lez Zeppelin
The Iron Maidens

[Deadly]

AC-DShe was the band I was gonna post. They play in this area a lot, but I've never seen 'em. I've heard they're pretty good, though.
