I just discovered another favorite band name. Thought I'd get a list going for all of you too.
I've got quite a list of them. I love a creative name. These are just the ones that make me smile. The list (except for #1) is never static or complete.
My top 3 are:
1) Amishko Kring ~ (say it fast) No other name makes me smile like this one.
2) Smudge ~ I used to love to yell it. They'd ALWAYS be late getting on stage so the quote was "Where the F*** is Smudge!"
3) Smootchknob
Runner's up
4) Minus the Bear
5) The Aquabats
6) The Wet Spots

I've got to give honorable mention to "Yo Momma's Big Fat Booty Band". It just makes me smile.

Are we talking real bands or fake bands?
I make up fake band names all the time.
Real names:
...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead
The Decemberists
Southern Culture on the Skids
God Is My Co-Pilot
Squirrel Nut Zippers

Surely SOMEONE must go to see live bands play. Any other names that make you laugh? Cry? Weep for the youth of today?

I think some folks are confusing "favorite band names" and "names of your favorite bands."
A couple more good ones:
Holy Fuck
Say Hi to Your Mom
Dandy Warhols
Flash Hawk Parlor Ensemble
New Pornographers

Tangerine Speedo! Holy crap that's funny.
@Jenisized: I agree people seem kind of confused. Those names are great. My brain is still reeling under the weight of Tony Danza Tap Dance Extravaganza.
