Strange band names?

[Penguin_Woman]

I love music. I spend almost my entire day listening to some kind of music. It's on even as I sleep. We take for granted these strange band names. But have you ever thought how weird some of them are? Like Mott the Hoople, Toad the Wet Sprocket, 'Til Tuesday, Blue Oyster Cult. The list could go on and on. What strange band names can you think of?

Quarterflash, SoulSirkus, Uriah Heep, Foghat, Klaatu, Def Leppard, UFO, Judas Priest, The Tubes, Molly Hatchet... just a few I can remember. I'm sure there are more. :)
