What band took its name from the Indigenous Australians' practise of sleeping in a hole in the ground on very cold nights, embracing multiple dingos?

Three Dog Night An official commentary included in the CD set Celebrate: The Three Dog Night Story, 1965-1975 states that vocalist Danny Hutton’s then-girlfriend June Fairchild thought of the name when she read a magazine article about Indigenous Australians, in which it was explained that on cold nights they would customarily sleep in a hole in the ground while embracing a dingo, a native species of wild dog. On colder nights they would sleep with two dogs, and if a night was especially cold, it was a “Three Dog Night.” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Dog_Night Mar 02 08, 9:14 AM
