Dream Theater have the following from Octavarium. It's song titles rather than band names but they mention Ripper Owens and David Lee Roth as well as Nightmare Cinema, which was a spoof band featuring the members of Dream Theater all playing different instruments.

Sailing on the seven seize the day tripper diem's ready
Jack the ripper Owens Wilson Phillips and my supper's ready
Lucy in the sky with diamond Dave's not here I come to save the
Day for nightmare cinema show me the way to get back home again

Flying off the handle be careful with
That axe Eugene gene the dance machine
Messiah light my fire gabba gabba
Hey hey my my generation's home again

Country artists do it all the time, and I find it a little irritating.

I found an old band called BF Trike that mentions Grand Funk, Cream, and Blue Cheer in the song "Three Piece Music".

Tom Petty mentions Del Shannon in Runnin' Down a Dream. "...me 'n Del were singing Little Runaway..."

Clash mentions Bowie in Clash City Rockers.

Kid Rock has that Sweet Home Alabama song.

Neil Young has From Hank to Hendrix

The Band mentions old Spike Jones in Up on Cripple Creek. Damn, but that is a sweetass song...

Can't think of any metal bands that do this other than what's been mentioned.

In the beginning there Hendrix
Playing Purple Haze and Voodoo Child
Deep Purple gave you Smoke on the Water and Highway Star
Led Zeppelin gave you Black Dog and a Whole Lotta love

In the beginning there was volume and
the Lord he said come bang my head
Everybody wishing for thoughts around
They can play in a rock n roll band
Everybody dancing along c'mom c'mon

In the beginning the Rolling Stones
Gave you Honky Tonk Woman and Jumping Jack Flash
Black Sabbath gave you War Pigs and mother Mob Rules of rock
ACDC Hells Bells and Shook Me All Night Long

I'm too lazy to go thru this entire thread to see if this one has already been mentioned, so I apologize if it's a rerun... but I'm listening to the Corabi Motley Crue album right now and have caught several references to "Mott the Hoople" in the song "Poison Apple"
