Best band names ever?

[DFW]

13. Thank goodness, no

We took our name from a book we had all read by Anthony Burgess. If we had known that it was going to be made into a worldwide film sensation a couple of years later, we might have made some recordings, but we were just a bunch of high school kids who happened to have similar tastes. I think we were the only band in the DC area that played the long version of Light My Fire note for note, both guitar and organ. Playing as opening act for the original lineup of Canned Heat and the Youngbloods was heady stuff for us.

But we were destined to scatter to the four winds before the film came out, and by then it was too late to try t regroup. I had moved to Spain, the drummer went to school in Rhode Island, the rhythm guitarist moved back to Canada and the lead guitarist saw his future in San Francisco (he ended up back in the DC area from what I heard later on).

Probably the story of 99% of the bands who might have been great if only.........
