Bandnames

AC/DC, got their name of a vacuum cleaner, on the label inside it said "AC/DC" which stood for "Alternate Current/Direct Current".

 

Yes

 

The band name Absurd comes from the idea that the founders had that swastikas in your logo and song titles like 'Germanien über alles' makes you a good black metal band.

 

How'd you know!!!!!!!

 

The Rolling Stones: When they asked Brian Jones, sometimes around yer 1962, what name of band to write on a poster, he said "Rollin' Stones" as a Muddy Waters's hit called Rollin' Stone.. later, their manager Andrew "Loog" Oldham changed it on Rolling Stones..

 

10CC: They took their name from the metric total of semen ejaculated by the average male.

 

The Doors


named after the author of "Jim and Jack" by Fred Doors

actually "The Doors of Perception" but by what author

 

The Who:
Originally names like The Detours and The High Numbers, but when they told people who they were, the people would go, "The who?"

Correction on the Led Zeppelin (at least, this is how I heard it): Jimmy Page, wanted to get John and Keef in his new band, called The New Yardbirds and Keith said, "You can't name a band that, it'll go down like a led zeppelin!"

P.S Stop swearing so much and learn some basic grammar.
