A band name game

16 is the only one you didn't get right. A lot of people, including my mother, couldn't seem to figure out number 16 either and I admit it's not the best one. Lol.  Also, it's easy to come up with stuff on my own but not so easy to figure out other peoples because everyone thinks in a different way. I actually tried to make mine as easy as possible without it being too obvious most of the time. Lol.

As for your list, I've only come up with a few so far. 

1. Van Der Graaf Generator (?)

2. Hawkwind

3. Captain Beyond (?)

7. Birth Control

? = I think that's what it is but not entirely sure.

"1) Geiger Counter

2) Eaglestorm

3) John (I consider this to be a tough one)

4) Enkidu

5) Baroque

6) Lieutenant Before

7) Unregulated Reproduction

8) Tutor Tutor

9) Fat Betty

10) Edward Murdstone"

Eaglestorm is Hawkwind

Fat Betty is Thin Lizzy

The others I can't break.

Oh, Baroque is Renaissance of course.

1. Little Little Car = Big Big Train

4. The Trucks = The Cars (so your second guess was correct)

6. The Criminals = The Police (not sure if anyone got that but I think someone did)

19. Shallow Blue = Deep Purple

20. Orange Awake = Tangerine Dream 

Here's a few I made up:

1. Menghast (  there's a firm logic!)

2. Plastic Necklace

3. Soothing Green

4. Warmgame

5. Susie Newmeadow

6. The Merry Jazz

Please not that only two of them are prog. Also, they're in alphabetical order.
