Band Names

Suburban Dadcrotch

It's easily on of my favorite things to do: listen for funny-sounding phrases in everyday conversation, and imagine it as the name of a band. For example, on the way to a rehearsal dinner last summer, someone else in the car noticed a men's spa. We were confused as to what exactly that was. He asked, "Is that like some sort of modern bathhouse?" I immediately replied, "Dunno, but that's a great band name. You just have to imagine a PA announcer excitedly yelling, for example, "Ladies and gentlemen...Modern Bathhouse!" Roars from the crowd. Some other gems I've actually heard in conversation:​

• Toxic Yard Sale
• Twelve-Pound Loaf and the Buttered Noodles
• Norwegian Puberty
• Muffed Bunt
• Catholic Pogs
• Neutered Enforcement
• Suburban Dadcrotch (you know this when you see it. Awkwardly fitted khakis with pleats for days, riding high on that fatherly junk).​​​

I'll be regularly posting new ones. Keep your ears open and post some good ones in the comments.
