 They eventually decided on Tublatanka as a combination of Tublat and Moravanka (a former local band they admired).Another version, given by Ďuro Černý in an interview for the newspaper "SME", is that a driver for the band suggested they call themselves Tublatanka, as a combination of Tublat and a parody of local wind ensembles, whose names invariably ended in -anka.On January 30, 1983, there was a festival for amateur bands in PKO Bratislava (park of culture and relaxation) that was organized by Richard Müller under the title “Mladá vlna 82”, where Tublatanka had an opportunity to appear as an opening act.
