I kind of laughed it off as "a good one... mr customer"
During the break, learned that it truely was his name and he was hyper sensative about jokin it.
Egg on me.

There was a jam band back in my college town whose bassist's nickname was "The Budget." I don't know how they thought that would be a cool stage name, but there you go.

Yeah, that's right. A grown man wanted to be called "Jism".

Otherwise, I was once in a band where the singer (named Les) decided we all needed stage names. He decided on Lesticle...
