Do you have a stage name?

[Brother Goose]

It doubles as my talkbass name.

 

[Smooth_bass88]

One MD called me "Mad Dog on tha Bass"

 

[2cooltoolz]

No, but our drummer does. But he's a, you know, drummer...

 

[Frankjohnson]

In a previous Life -
My stage name to the guys I played with was......
Frank Johnson........
Hence my name here

 

[FingerDub]

I was tagged with "Grim" by guys I rode with many, many years ago and it stuck. I have it tattooed on me, painted on a bike and on my stage rig. It's a nickname really, more than a stage name.

Dope. Did you get that light custom made?

 

[Burwabit]

Thumper

Edit ^ I gave that to myself

 

[Bunk McNulty]

Not a name I chose. My real name is Grant. The guys in the band started calling me Grantonian last year. Don't know why. They even introduce me that way sometimes. Doesn't bother me.

The only other time I had a stage name was for a trailer trash theme costume party gig. We were renamed the Trailer Trash Band for the evening and each took alternate personas. I was Zeke.

Grantonian/Smithsonian: You have become respectable! My condolences.

[ThinCrappyTone]

My drummer called me “Pink” for a while, in the 90’s... still not sure why

 

[Freez]

Freez. Has nothing to do with cold though. My name is Jeffrey, there's a Jeffries Freeway near where I live, work buddies made the jump from that to Freezway, which got shortened to Freez by lazy tongues. Wow, never realized how boring that story was until I saw it in print...

 

[ThreeFingers]

All of us have stage names, just kind of goes with the motif of the band. I'm Gygax Icehammer

It’s not at all original, but for the past decade or so I’ve been known as “The Captain.” This nickname was given to me by locals here in Macon, GA. It stems a lot from my oft wearing of your typical Sailor’s cap around town, as well as my love of the typical “Yacht Rock” Music and lifestyle of the late 70s and early 80s. I’m also a certified advanced water diver, and USCG certified for basic ship captaining. It started innocently enough, and I ran with it. Branding works, and it has definiteky helped with marketing over the years.

I'm trying to get 'T-Bone' to catch on. Even if there are no T's in my name. Anything is better than "Koko the Monkey".

Perhaps you can adopt the name "Gammy" .

 

[RVRSCO]

In my first band ever, which was a punk-ska band, I was know as Dick Smackswell. Haha. Always good for a laugh and my close friends still call me that. Lol.

That reminds me of a local band I saw once, the guitarist was wearing a Captain Crunch style Admiralty jacket. In my head, I referred to him as “The Commodore”.

 

[Muttleybass]

I was in a band with three Mikes.. Mic checks became confusing and the internet was brand new, so they started calling me "Muttley" because of my laugh... Like Dick Dasturdly's dog.

 

[NotTylerHendley]

Usually they just call me “BOOOOOOOOOOOOO”

Fairly positive this joke has been made already, but don’t tell me if it has. I need this.

 

[Ellery]

Yeah, it's "Getov Thastage". I don't know where that name comes from, but I always hear it when I'm playing a show. I guess I must remind people of somebody.
