Tony,
I have that single by Redd Peters! Pretty funny, but not for a "mixed" audience.
Did I mention that I once played in a band called "Methyl Ethyl And The Ketones"? I was Plastos Klutchum.

I've read through the whole thread with much amusement. Some very clever(sick)minds out there.
I'm suprised that no one has brought up the old chestnut...

A fellow player named me "Sam and the Samsonites" because of the other players I played along with, some of which was excess luggage.

I played in a band with a strange name.
"Dick Rutan and The Don't Do The Biscuits Band".

My given name is so common its sounds counterfeit.
In 1 band, The lead guitar player was Jack Smith. The Band leader would introduce us, Lead and Steel, Allious Smith & Jones.

We played a lot of non-union gigs, so I went by Sonny Pleasure for 3 or 4 years. After graduating med school, I was promoted to Dr Pleasure.
