The Tubes derived their band name from the term "the tube," which refers to both a television set and, informally, the underground transportation system in London. The band's theatrical style and avant-garde performances paralleled the medium of television, making the name fitting. Additionally, the band members felt it represented the idea of being in a "tube" or a confined space, where their eclectic music and performances could be showcased.
