Crossword Genius

Second journey for band (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

strip

'band' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'second journey' is the wordplay.
'second' becomes 's' (common abbreviation).
'journey' becomes 'trip' (trip is a kind of journey).
's'+'trip'='STRIP'

'for' is the link.

(Other definitions for strip that I've seen before include "Remove clothing" , "Dismantle" , "may be torn off in anger?" , "Thin piece" , "Landing field - take off" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
