Anyone into Band Names? What's your favorite?
Here are a few of Spin's Top 40 Band Names. I've heard only half of the top 40 and here's a few;
The Velvet Underground
Mudhoney
Thirteenth Floor Elevators
The Who
Sex Pistols
Strawberry Alarm Clock
Throbbing Gristle
Motorhead - number one and I've never heard of them
My favorite band name is "Jumbo Lump Daddy and the Backfin Boys" The reason I'm even bringing this up is because two days ago the "Flavor" section of my local newspaper had an article about a new seafood restaurant that was opening here in Coastal (CoVa) Virginia, and they were seeking a new name for their restaurant. I say new because the location had a successful restaurant named OneFish-TwoFish who's owners retired, and the new owners wanted to change the name.
Since I'm in the process of helping my region of Southeastern Virginia re-brand itself from "Hampton Roads" to "CoVa", stands for Coastal Virginia, I thought I might recommend a couple of names that I own like CovaSeafood and CoVaGrill. While those names are OK, remembering reading that one of the owners Adrian Coloprete said; "We're going to have a crabcake that's our "Loss Leader" that has 100% lump crabmeat even if the food costs run 50 or even 60%. This got me to thinking about my favorite band name.
Armed with the knowledge that Jumbo Lump Daddy and his band disband about 5 years ago after a 10 year run, I checked to see it the domain JumboLumpDaddy(.)com was available and Voila!
btw, I'm not interested in selling the name to them, but rather bartering for some publicity for That Name Guy, and the new branding of Southeastern Va.
Finally, if you were to google Jumbo Lump Daddy you'll see where they had a Facebook page and a pretty good following while their gig lasted. I intend to reach out to the original Jumbo Lump Daddy to see if he would like to be involved like; Jumbo Lump Crabcakes for life
So what's your favorite band? Are they still around? Any interesting stories about their name? Cheers!
ps. the type of crab we're talking about here is the Chesapeake Bay Blue Crab, the Best Crab in the World!
