Fab Five Friday
At first, I thought I'd list my favorite fake band names.
But you guys had so many awesome suggestions, I couldn't compete.
So I'm not even going to bother with my own.
I'm just going to rank yours.
No. 1 gets a prize.
Some of them were sick.
Some of them were hilarious.
Some of them were hilariously sick.
Here they are, your five best fake band suggestions, in order ...
1. Naked Lady Mud Flaps
I took an informal poll among some other Sun staffers and this one, from Eutaw Street Historian, won by a long shot. Historian, email me and I'll award you your prize.
2. Sessa Fresh
Besides the fact that this band name incorporates my name (major bonus points), it just flows really well. Say it out loud. Sessa Fresh. Yeah. Good stuff, courtesy of Alf Fan.
3. Venomous Sac
What a sharp, vivid band name, dreamt up by Uncoolotta.
4. Drama Llama
It spits. It rhymes. It appeals ... to me. Thanks, Patchen.
5. Voodoo Pork
Well, he/she nominated him/herself, along with a long list of other fake band names. But I can actually see a band from the South calling itself Voodoo Pork. I like it.

I've been The Baltimore Sun's nightlife and local entertainment reporter for a couple years, and it's surprising how much the scene has grown in that time. Most of Baltimore's bars and clubs are unpretentious places with fairly cheap drinks and plenty of character. I like dancing and think this city needs more clubs, but nothing beats having a cold, locally brewed beer with friends in a comfortably full corner bar.
Comments
Sessa Fresh could team up with the Baltimore Band. I see a headliner at Virgin Fest!
