My blues name is Brown Hips White... LOL
My Stange name is Bob Knarley, when I was a video editor my name in the credits was Slo Mo, if I were a rapper I would want to be Deep Dish, when I go to restraunts and they ask my name I say that I am Helmet.

Fat Back Jenkins by the formula. I kind of like that.

Back in the day, when I was the youngest member of the band, they called me "Baby Boy", there was a transition period where I went by "Papa Chub", now I am known throughout the microphone as Phalex Von Porklipps. It's close enough to my real name, but keeps the groupies from finding me in the phone book.

I never came up with any of them. Guitar players and Drummers seem to be the ones giving me stage names. Tell you the truth, Papa Chub was my favorite, but I don't get to decide these things.

Well, I don't have a stage name, but some of my biker buddies call me "pähkinä", as a nut, 'cause I'm nuts about nuts, specially cashews . Those are soooo damn tasty.

Every so often I'll get called Juggernaut, sometimes even Juggs for short.

I was Lord Kjold for a while, now I'm Cancer. I can't say I'm terribly chuffed with either.

And I had to point out that somewhere out in the world is a CD that a friend and I recorded 90% of, with just the two of us. He had put together a home studio and I was goofing around with him to figure out how all the goodies interacted.

We ended up recording about a dozen songs that had all been originals belonging to our respective former bands.

He practiced his mixing and production skills on those soundfiles until he liked them, having occasional visiting friends do overdubs. Then he went to the nearest mall and convinced five random strangers to pose with instruments outside the mall and took their pics.

He printed the whole thing together until he could make it look fairly professional-ish.

Then he realized he had a stack of CD's that he didn't need or particulary want...so he went down to the local CD Warehouse (or whatever the equivalent store is called in his town) and gave them a sob story about being the manager for a defunct band, but the lead singer had died.

They bought all the CD's, and have presumably sold some since then.

If you see a CD that says at the top 'Meanwhile, Elsewhere' and at the bottom 'Cause & Defect' , that's me!

What got this started is that the Mexican guy holding the Pbass on the cover did not play those bass parts. They were all me and are credited to "Muhammed Chang".

So I guess I have had the alias of "Muhammed Chang".
