An exchange with Egg-Roger made me think of this one. Can you think of bands named after instruments? I just got two:
The Bongos
The Tubular Bells
(of course another interesting question would be female body parts named after instruments...like maracas or congas [:I] )

Freaking brilliant! All three of yuz. Man, how could I forget 808 State. [V]
In a similar vein/genre - Bomb the Bass and Horns of Plenty. Plus new wavers:
Electric Guitars (anyone remember "Language Problems"?)
Echo & the Bunnymen (kinda, right?, "Echo"??)
Voice of America (...a stretch??)

The Hooters took their name from a nickname they gave their Melodica, which was featured in many of their early songs. I'm sure you all thought they were named for something else... [:p]
