Couldn't think of a better name, so let me just explain. Me and my friends do this just as a sort of inside joke, but I think it belongs here, and we can even make a game out of it. Take a band name and just... reverse it. Post the opposite, post a synonym, and then have people guess who you're referring to. Bonus points if you get songs/albums in there too. I'll start. I'm actually really clueless if this will flop or fly, so whatever.

This looks kinda fun, but I'm gonna watch it play out a couple times before I try posting, because I'm still a little unsure as to how it works.

Gotta be The Who!
How about the Piehole Paddleboarders? I was always a big fan of their album Tsetse Fly Impregnation Flunky.
Heh. That sounds even dirtier than their original names.
