limpbizkit... sounds cool... but it is really stupid

i can't believe nobody's mentioned nerf herder in this.... let alone zz top - surely these are contenders...

as for the blink 182 debate... i read someone said they weren't sued... i believe there is an Irish techno band that went by the name blink, and who threatened them with legal action, so they added the 182. Several reasons are there for the 182 - 1)the ideal weight 2)the scarface f***'s 3)no reason at all.

I can put to rest the birthday month thing - mark hoppus was born in March - which is the 3rd month...

and yes I'm a fan...

The Von Bondies sounds like a weird name to me.

Too bad they are all great bands.

[QUOTE=blink182_fan2019]no band sued blink 182 they seen a movie that said **** 182 times pal and it blinked it out so they named there band blink 182[/QUOTE]

And yes, a band actually did sue Blink 182 (formerly Blink) for having the same name. Know your facts before you claim to be that big of a fan.

Led Zeppelin? why is that weird? The "Zeppelin" was a german blimp, and it fell like lead from the sky. Duh

i'd say a local band called "The Urban Monkeys" is kind of weird

a retarded band name would be thursday. naming a band after a day of the week is nothing but pure stupidity at its height.

Finger eleven, the meat puppets, AFI, presidentys of the US, The The,

and Witch Hazel....they stole the band name ive wanted for YEARS

LOL, my band...me and my friends like Ska, but ska kind of went dead like 4 yrs ago, haha, so we made a Metal/Ska band, we call it Aluminum, ahaha, I know, we are stupid, I didn't say we weren't...LOL. Anyway, the name of our band is, The Christmas Buttons...yeah, I think that qualifies as weird...

That is a pretty weird name, but I am absolutely in love with that band.

Led Zeppelin came from when Keith Moon (I think) said the band would go down like a blimp made of led or something like that.

somewhere along the lines of...
 

Shpongle

Finger 11 used to be called The Rainbow Butt Monkeys, I think that name is the worst. And the Butthole Surfers haha.

Weirdest band name? Where do i begin.... Hoobastank, thats an fricken weird one, Green day(dont see anything in that :S) Limp Bizkit(wtf?!?!?!?!)

What about brides of destruction? or aerosmith?

or velvet revolver?

[QUOTE=Griffin_Page]Blink 182 and Sum 41... what the hell is the meaning behind those names?[/QUOTE]




the meaning behind Sum 41 is that they started the band 41 days into the summer

and it has been rumored that blink 182 is named that because blink was the name of tom's neighbors dog and in the movie scarface they say the "F" word a total of 182 times no one is sure if this is true though

They were orignally named Blink. There was another band named Blink, so Blink got pissed that Blink stole their name, and Blink threatened legal action on Blink or something. That's when the whole 182 thing came in for Blink.

[QUOTE=HeRoOfThEdAy1589]i dont get system of a down, pink floyde, but led zeppelin was named after the guys' gym teacher[/QUOTE]

Wrong. Lynyrd Skynyrd was originally named Leonard Skinnard (I think that's how his name was spelt) after Leonard Skinnard, their gym coach. They later changed it 2-3 times and ended up with Lynyrd Skynyrd.

Led Zeppelin came from, as rock not roll stated, Keith Moon saying Jimmy Page's new band would go up like a lead zeppelin. Obviously a lead zeppelin won't go up, but the band did indeed succeed. :D

here are some: bucknaked and the bare bottom boys, sausage, colonel les claypool and the fearless flying frog brigade, limp bizkit (the names not really strange... its the meaning behind it)

oh yeah and i do know the meaning of limp bizkit... its kinda nasty... oh yeah the string cheese incident is a good name too
