    Hi all

    As per my previous Thread, I am starting a Foo Fighters Tribute band and will be holding auditions on the 31st of July but I was going to call it
    "Fu Fighters" and the feed back was that the name was terrible.

    Can anyone think of a good name for a Foo Fighters Tribute Band.
    I'm open to all suggestions.

    I look forward to hearing all your ideas

    Can't believe someone in Ireland already has the name The Best Of Foo.
    I thought I was a genius.:(

    Either way though, The Faux Fighters is the best name suggested. Its brilliant.
    That should be your name.

    /thread.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,351 ✭✭✭Orando Broom


    Poo Phighters!!!


    Hilarity abounds.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 532 ✭✭✭ki


    Foobar Fighters


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 232 ✭✭GazPat

    PHOO PHIGHTERS...

    You beat me to it ORANDO


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 60 ✭✭Paddymack


    Your right...its is the best name. It just looked it up...is mean fake or false. Ironic really. Suits it perfectly. I think I've the name.

    Now all i need is a guitarist and bassist.

    Thanks bro

    Faux Fighters is great - I was thinking The Foo Lovers

    Monkey wrench and the **** spanners?


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 15,569 Mod ✭✭✭✭Furious-Red


    Not sure if it has been said but what about "The Best of Foo"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 317 ✭✭Handy11


    Echoes & Silence
    One By One
    This is a Call
    All Our Lives


    Aside from those, I thought Faux Fighters was a class name. There's one in England, and one in the UK, so I don't see why there couldn't be an Irish one.

    Best of luck with the band. I think if you play it right there'd be a lot of business out there for you.

    Call it "my hero"

    Just for the awful, "There goes my hero, he's ordinary"
