Another band name thread, please vote...

Looking for help on a band name for a bunch of guys (military or retired) that plays mostly classic rock, R&B, blues, etc. We mostly play for fun usually at parties for troops, returning deployed, 4th July, etc. Has to be appropriate for a family audience so we can skip all the dick jokes and double entendres. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Cheers!

I like them!
What about "Tango Uniform" (tits up)
I saw your poll names and being a Navy vet my first thought was "somebody is military here"

I like Behind the Power curve for some reason, you could be known by insiders as BTPC!


Or maybe beyond the power curve.

These threads always remind me that I shouldn't sell some of the names that I've come up with short.
