    Sorry, not comedy ones, just slightly ridiculous...

    End of the Beginning     - they'd have been a prog band, of course.

    Shadow Cabinet - but not in the political sense... emphasis more on Shadow than Cabinet.  The album cover was going to be black and white like an early Blue Oyster Cult album, showing an open door with darkness "shining" out of it.

    Can't sing, can't dance, can handle a guitar a little.

    I always liked The Mandelbrot Set for a jazz prog sort of band. I can't play jazz prog.

    Don't talk politics and don't throw stones. Your royal highnesses.

    I’ve always fancied having a band called Concrete Grandma. 

    If I wanted a comedy band name I’d go for Anna Drex and The Dripcatchers.

    Ah, well, I was once in The Concrete Landladies.  A long time ago, in Blackpool...

    The Urinators

    A family member was a Judge. He had to preside over a case where a guy in the dock was in the Urinators.

    ManSweat 

    Feel free to use them for your next country or blues project. 
    There are two bands called Sloth, at least
    WTF

    More worryingly, why is ManSweat not topping charts or headlining Wacken?

    The Screaming Hairy Hab-Dabs. A name from school that never got used and never will.

    In the 90s, just for the purposes of booking rehearsals, we were called Hiding the Salami but our band name was The Dog's Bollox.

    A friend had an all-girl band and loved our names and asked if we could come up with something for them and we did -
    The Clitoris Allsorts. They wanted to use it but didn't think others/venues would appreciate it.

    When in school (50 years ago) I played bass in a band with my mates.  Initially, we were "Upper Left Nostril" then "Rancid Turd", but we settled on "Peristalsis".  Music was a little difficult to swallow, but we got by for a couple of years before we went our separate ways.

    There was a band in Exeter in the 80s called Cherno Bill and the red hot reactors.
    My first band was called Spastic Goat.

    My first (and only) band was Thrombosis. 

    A mate had a band called Clam Pasty.

    I quite like Motorloaf. Or possibly Meathead.
