These are the five finalists that me and my cohorts have come down to

1.  Bad Mike and The Deplorables (or simply The Deplorables)
2.  Tony Spilotro Review
3.  No That Doesn't Go There
4.  Mad Mike and the Asylum (or just plain The Asylum)
5.  Mickey Casino and the Blackjacks

As a Deplorable myself ... I tend to be attracted to that but you are alienating half your audience. I kind of like the "Mickey Casino and the Blackjacks". It sounds fun!

For branding purposes, I'd ask a few questions, like:

*What type of music will you be playing?
*Who is your primary target market?
*Where/how will your brand be primarily marketed? Large form, small form? Physical, digital?

Not only that, but that term will be dated once we move on from the current political climate.  Deplorables is specifically linked to Hillary Clinton and she isn't really in the conversation anymore, so that's gonna die out.

Of the choices, I like "The Asylum" the best....but it sounds metal.  If you're a folk band, that might be weird.

Stroke, we'll play mostly classic rock with some motown and some rockabilly thrown in ...  I'm leaning more towards Mickey Casino and the Blackjacks personally

I'm not overly hyped by any of them. I like Tony Spilotro Review the most.

We're kind of leaning toward Tony Spilotro Review or Mickey Casino/Wild Mickey and the Blackjacks.

Many years ago driving up the PA Turnpike, and seeing the same sign over and over again I thought that would be a good name for a band.  The answer is: Falling Rock
