Certainly the worst band name ever is "Free Beer." It looks great on
the
sign outside, but it causes anger and dissention with the club staff.


I can see why the band might think they could draw a crowd with that
name,
but not why any pub or club would hire them. If they don't realise there
might be a problem before they hire them, then they deserve to get
disgruntled patrons IMO.
Might be fine for an open bar party or wedding though. :-)


I guess you don't know the 80's era SF skate-punk band of that name.


Quite right, I don't. So how did they go on the pub/club circuit, and how
impressed were the pubs/clubs that hired them? And more specifically did
they get asked back often?

Trevor.

They were underage at first and played punk clubs whose clientele could
recognize a joke.

I see they still reunite for skate music gigs thirty years later.
