Really?

That's so interesting.

Pink Floyd and Dream Theater are great-sounding names, but I voted for King Crimson, which is one of my favourites. Jethro Tull is good too. I find most prog bands' names quite interesting, while black metal really has the edge for absolutely ridiculous names....

I chose Spock's Beard from the list as I'm a bit of a trekkie... (or is it trekker? o, I don't know).

Although I also like  Pink Floyd and  Captain  Beefheart and his Magic Band.

and probably others...

I always thought Dream Theater was a cool name.

I think Jethro Tull is agreat name for a band.

People who know nothing about the band assume it is the name of the lead singer. I can then delight in telling them that it's the name of a 16th century farmer who invented the 'seed drill'

Perhaps I should get out more!

BTW, I agree about Pink Floyd. Good name..wierd and obscure.

Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

I've always thought "Pink Floyd" was a great name for a band. What do you think?
