Well, there's the old favorite band name,
LIVE MUSIC TONIGHT
but I'm thinking of trying a new approach:
NO MUSIC TONIGHT
which might draw a bigger crowd.

I guess the real question is:
Are you lookin for an actual name for your act, or were you lookin' for humorous possibilities?
When the guys came up with the name "Barenaked Ladies", it was pretty ingenious.
If you're lookin' for an actual name, ... I'd suggest "Pat Marr".
It's short, sweet and easy to remember. Good luck my friend.

The ladies as we call them were banned to great effect in the media. I think it started when p/c folk at Toronto city hall voted them off at the last minute, no gig there. And, now you know the rest of the story.

I understood you to mean a humorous band/artist name that would be familiar to "boomers."
A female trio that has recently impressed me for their tight harmony and clever name choice was/is "The Wailin' Jennys." They are capitalizing on a famous name, Waylon Jennings, without infringing on his estate's rights. Very clever. Why didn't I think of that? I'll bet it has opened doors and drew audiences of uninitiated fans.

Matt,
With a play on those words I have been using "Almost Live Band" for years now. For my audience members who don't remember those marquees I just tell that that I am the almost live part. 
Later,

Pat, Advertise yourself as "FREE BEER".... you'll will definitely attract a crowd.
Well, for the first time, anyway.
