Toad the Wet Sprocket


Given the origin of this name, I disagree it's bad.

"Toad the Wet Sprocket takes its name from a Monty Python comedy sketch called "Rock Notes",[2][3] in which a journalist delivers a nonsensical music news report:

'Rex Stardust, lead electric triangle with Toad the Wet Sprocket, has had to have an elbow removed following their recent successful worldwide tour of Finland. Flamboyant ambidextrous Rex apparently fell off the back of a motorcycle. "Fell off the back of a motorcyclist, most likely," quipped ace drummer Jumbo McClooney on hearing of the accident. Plans are already afoot for a major tour of Iceland.'"

I agree they were/are a great band.. Over the years anytime I tried to turn someone on to them, the look on their face when I said the name said it all...

Brent learned when he named The Drams..

to each their own..
