Dudes,
what does your nickname mean?
I'm talkin about nicks like 7 Dying Trees, LGMT, Pry0531, VWall, Jester700, Vaiworship, Trouble311 and all the others.
I know it's a stupid question but ...just curiosity.

Platypus · #7 11-14-2001, 01:20 PM

Well, I think that the platypus is the coolest animal ever. A mammal that lays eggs and has a bill like a duck, hello!
It's also a really cool band project with John Myung, Derek Sherinian, Ty Tabor and Rod Morgenstein.
My real name is Kristofer if anyone wants to know.

LGMT · #8 11-14-2001, 02:20 PM

My initials = Luiz Gustavo M.T.

The "evo" and "pogo" in my name are from the guitars of vai's. The 3 is because of a stupid error of mine getting a user name.

Had to do it 3 times, so I put a 3 at the end of this one.

The little "v" is for virtuoso1692, which used to be my screen name, for those of you who remember me from the old forum.

I'm uh.. not very original am I.

HIS ROYAL DARKNESS · #11 11-14-2001, 03:30 PM

Hey guys,

I had been visiting this site for months as a guest. *I was wanting a cool name, ya know, kinda like when you pick your webserver screen name. *Anyway, I was reading all these old articles on Vai, because I was going to see him in a few weeks. *I came across an issue of GFTPM, and it had a long article on Whitesnake....don't go there.....BUT it had a long part devoted to what David Coverdale was thinking when he was trying to get SSV to join the band. *He nicknamed Vai "His Royal Darkness," and I just thought that sounded cool.

So now ya know.

Later,
Chris

Superuser · #12 11-14-2001, 03:43 PM

Superuser was the name of my old band.
Superuser defined is: one who is in control of his environment in a Linux system. It's some computer BS that the rest of the members knew something about. I had no clue. I thought it was some kind of A-hole Superhero who would use people in a super kind of way.

Mine is somewhat obvious, provided you know who my namesake is. My old bandmates said I looked like the grown up version of Bammbamm and so it stuck and 5 years later I'm still using it. :biggrin:
BAMM !

nuno · #14 11-14-2001, 03:55 PM

Evopogov3: what is for '1692'?

BammBamm: sorry my ignorance: who is BammBamm?

I guess I'm not creative...

I always go by Uncle Meat or Mr Meat or Meat or whatever... I remember a while back I was talking to Kevan on AIM and some punk was stalking me so I just decided to get a new screen name and just stole from the Zappa album for one.
