I guess we have the 60s/70s prog band with the best name! Atomic Rooster!
The poll will, of course, remain open.

An 18-th century agriculturist's name is terrible for an eccentric prog rock band? OK then. I like the name.

I mean, yeah, it is. Lol. I'm glad you like it, I still think it sucks. 
Porg for short. My love of music doesn't end with prog! Feel free to discuss all sorts of music with me. Odds are I'll give it a chance if I haven't already! :)

How about this: first band to reach 15 votes gets the win?
Atomic Rooster are winning right now, let's see if this will change.
