Nope mine is a tribute to funnyman and clotheshorse, TV's Nipsey Russell. Without him,  70's celebrity game shows would have just been a roomful of drunken hacks attempting lame one-liners. Nipsey elevated the whole affair to comic genius. The 88 was just an add on, as 8 is very powerful in numerology, as it is symbolic of chaos and disorder (all 8 compass directions at once, as typefied by the 8 pointed star).

See if you can find a band named Yanns. That would be pretty sweet though. Only if they are good, though.

Well, my nickname does not have any connection with any bands ( I don't know any band of this name or similiar). My name is Paweł Proksa and some of my relatives used to call me Pablo, I find it very, well, coherent because of my interestings (art, music, computers). I don't want to compare myself with a great artist Picasso... Well, I was thinking about nick such as Rhayader, Awaken, Minstrel or something like that, but I like that simple nickname - Pablo P.

Yes and no. It relates to my own band "Bald Angels", whose first album will be out in August and of which I am one half (the other half being my wife Jeanine, whose username is "BaldJean"). The "Friede" part of my name is short for my first name "Friederike". A name I use for many different forums and online programs.


BaldJean and I; I am the one in blue.

I used to be in love with Steely Dan. I was young; I was naive, or maybe plain stupid.

A prog band with the Greenback name? WOW! I would be very happy!

Now, tonight, Greenback plays the music of Genesis...

 

You know, when I see my nickname elsewhere than here, i freak all the time, because this nickname has almost the same effect on m e than my real name has!Smile

Good try, Tuxon.

That will be the link to the song later in life, followed by Under my skin and Under the bridge from the Chili Peppers.

Logical thinking by the way, Tux On was a B-side from one of the Clutching at Straws songs. And Going Under was one of the songs from Clutching at Straws.

No, it is a random word created by the forming of two other random words (guess which two). it is also my XBOX live gamertage if any of you happen to care (which is unlikely).
My soundcloud. Please give feedback if you want!

I was not going to vote, but when it's 50% - 50% then one could make a difference in this life.
So I did vote and I am proud of it.

Lots of songs with Under, lots of songs without.....
