Chain Restaurant Food or Band Name?

I was talking to a friend of mine and she mentioned how the dishes in chain restaurants always have ridiculous names. She thought that a breakfast dish at Baker's Square — called Chorizo Skillet — sounded a bit like a bad band name. Can't you see it now? Hey guys we're going to go see Chorizo Skillet this weekend! I suppose it could be worse; it could be Jimmy Eat World — real band name — or G Love and the Special Sauce — another real band name.

So now tell me, can you identify the real band names from the chain restaurant dishes? If you think you can, then take the quiz!

    A band called Jimmie's Chicken Shack...how is that even possible?! I got 8/10 which I thought wasn't too bad as I hadn't heard of any on the bands or foods. Being an Aussie is my excuse and I'm sticking to it!

    Jimmie's Chicken Shack was probably one of only band names I've actually ever heard of!

    Buttered Noodles... I might have to save that one for my future band name!

    Ewww, does Chili's really have something called the Quesadilla Explosion on their menu? Do people buy it?

    Jimmie's Chicken Shack is a band name? why would you call your band like that?

    7/10, not too bad, although I DID feel like most of those could have been band names.
    I was surprised that people haven't heard of Jimmies Chicken Shack...but then I remembered that they only had, like, one song on the radio and the only reason that I knew them so well is becuase they are from around my hometown.

    yeah, Jimmie's Chicken Shack is the only band I had heard of--they are kind of local. I missed four--not so good. Fun Quiz though.

    Jimmie's Chicken Shack was one of my favorite bands when I was in high school...it's so hilarious to look back on that.

    I have a live version of "Do Right" that is SO funny. That song's going to be stuck in my head all day now.

    I didn't even realize I was in the #1 spot until someone sent me a congratulatory gift. I rock!

    haha, 7 of 10. which is surprising since i HATE chain restaurants and will only eat at in-n-out (if forced on a road trip) or at outback steak house when it comes to chains. omg, most of those places are so GROSS!

    I really thought I would ace this, but I guess 8 out of 10 isn't bad. Now I know what chain restaurant food to use for my next band name.

    I've heard of String Cheese Incident and Jimmie's Chicken Shack...so I got those right. And the Quesadilla Explosion (only cause a coworker LOVES it...it's a salad BTW...but not a very healthy one Eye-wink )

    But I kinda misunderstood the quiz...I thought the names were of the actual restaurant, not a dish found in a restaurant. That's my excuse for my 50% score! Smiling

    Wow I did really well (8/10) and would have only changed 1 (making it 9/10).

    My friends and I are always coming up with crazy band names. This quiz was too ironic!

    Midway through the quiz I forgot whether I was choosing band names or actually names of chain restaurants not dishes at the restaurant. But except for archers of loaf and string cheese incident I guessed.
    7/10.

    Damn I'm good, and I guessed half of them. Yay me, I should take quizzes more often late at night.
