Name the Bus!

R.I.P. The Sex Machine, you would have been groovy

As soon as I saw the page, I thought it should be The Cockpit. Maybe that name should be saved for when they get their own studio? Dunno. But I became a Patron here just to help vote. :)

Cockpit is what you call the driver's seat.

I'm honestly shocked The Cock Star has the fewest votes.

"The cockpit" is hands down the best one! Out of the other ones the Cock it not as on the nose and "The sex machine" just comes off too 80's for my liking. Something a hair metal band will call their bus. The cockpit makes it seem more like a base of operation. This is the place where your in control and make your way into the unknown. Added it plays into Dakota's alien / spaceship interest and gives him more command / a greater role as the semi master commander of "THE COCKPIT"

I like "The Cockpit" the most. Keeps the word "Rocket" out, and can be taken multiple ways. Cockpit, for the space thing. Mosh pit, since rock.

Excellent argument. I was thinking of interactions along those lines when the inevitable Rocket Roller confrontation happens. Whichever name wins, I can definitely work with it.

I don't think the word Rocket makes it seem like Rocket Roller "has influence". They don't own the word rocket. If anything, it could make for a moment where RR claim that RC "copied" their bus name from them, but obviously that's BS. I like The Cock Rocket best because a) direct reference to band name, b) it suggests something big and moving (since the bus is big and, y'know, drives around). The Cockpit makes me think of something small and not moving. An airplane does move and has a cockpit, but it is only part of the airplane, not the whole thing, ya know? Like, think car VS backseat. The former suggests motion, the latter does not, to me. Anyway. These are my lengthy feelings on these two name suggestions. No one asked. Whoops. (Also, the alliteration in the CoCK RoCKet? Come on. Beautiful.)

🤘 no worries. I voted for Cockpit. *spoiler alert* 😂

Good point, I didn't even consider that when people suggested it.

Putting rocket in the bus name feels like the other band has influence.

MsCheshireCat

i do support the one-eyed rocket :-)

not "The Cock-it Rocket". for shame

Sure, but I can't edit the poll so we'll have to go by how many likes your post gets!

Brad and Leslie Brown

Can i suggest "the one eyed rocket"?
