Mine is simply the name of my original band, which is basically me recording bass, guitar, vox along with another lead singer. ONE DAY it will actually get off the ground!
My name is Oskar, a nickname for Oskar is Oz. I'm also a bit unshaved, have long hair, AC/DC shirt 24/7, old jeans... So I'm a hobo-looking dude called Oz... (And my name is also a joke about the movie "The wizard of Oz")
Spinal Tap reference:
Pudding, Ronnie: Left Cheap Dates (later Cheapdate) in 1964 to become the fourth member of the London-based Thamesmen with David, Nigel and drummer John "Stumpy" Pepys. Played first gig with newly formed Spinal Tap in December 1966. Only member of the band who could write and read music. Within a year, following the success of Tap's "(Listen to the) Flower People," which Pudding composed, and "Gimme Some Money," which he co-wrote, the bassist left the group to form the Pudding People. (He also had "a heart blister" at the time, following a breakup with backup singer Lhasa Apso.) His group's debut album on Megaphone, "I Am More Music" (with the single "I Am the Music" b/w a live version of "Rubber Biscuit"), bombed. Tap replaced him with Derek, who had left the all-white Jamaican band Skaface. David: "Ronnie was an excellent musician but he got too big for his hat size, if you know what I mean." (GW) Pudding also had some run-ins with Nigel, who would accuse him later of "theft of material" and "sexual innuendo." (above copied from spinaltapfan.com)
Aside for the racing fans... apparently there is a real Ronnie Pudding who was a British Formula 1 driver.

Mine's not too hard to figure. It's my first name and part of my last. Every singer I've ever played with has insisted on introducing me as "Mike Sorr Bass Guitar". I've come to accept it.

A tune that i wrote a long time ago. It ended up on a CD in 2004, which is also kinda long ago, come to think of it.
I've been told more than once that my name doesn't sound like a real person's name, but the UID I have here on TB is actually me.
My last name is Panda.-Seriously
I pretty much only play 6 or more string basses-but mainly 6 string-

In the great and under-rated film "Let's Do It Again", Mongo Slade is the name of the big time mobster Bill Cosby and Sidney Poitier invent to pull off their fight fixing hypnosis scam.
Admit it; you want to see the movie now!

Its my old heavy/comedy band formed in 2001, and not a farm of excited phallus's as some believe. The guitar player was just a big guy.

Each Major City has produced Bass Giants whose work will outlive them and be enjoyed by folks long after they are gone. Just like others, Philly has produced players like Stanley Clarke, Alphonso Johnson, Victor Bailey, Jamaaladeen Tacuma, Christian McBride just to name a few. I was born and raised in Philly and I play bass. I'm not on the level of these Giants thus the 101. So I'm Phillybass101. I also happen to be studying with the same guy (Tyrone Brown) who taught Jamaaladeen and Victor Bailey. I am carrying on the fine tradition of the Philly Bass Player. There are some awesome young cats around here too. I heard some of their names and met a few of them as well. But they are not yet what I would call Legends.
I didn't know this thread existed. 3234718 is a stupid username I've been using for various things online since I first got the internet in high school. I really didn't expect to come here as often as I do or to buy or sell any basses.
From 2000 to 2005 I was in a band called Winston. Always loved that band. The "TK" are my actual initials.
