In all seriousness, my band was called Tycho Brahe. Well we still are we just haven't played together in like 5 years. Anyone know if someone else has this name too? I could never find anything, and I really like the name. tx-Dale

Well, why not name a band after an astronomer? We have had bands named after poets (Novalis, Hölderlin), fictitious literary characters (Uriah Heep), military leaders (Wallenstein), horror authors (H.P. Lovecraft), so why not an astronomer?

My imaginery heavy metal band? Rancid Groin.
