So it also means "SoonPeace".
 
Good that you mention that. I never noticed that second meaning. Nice!

I like it! And I think OLIVE MESS is also a stunning name
 
like Olivier Messiaen, a 20th century classical music composer whose works are often resembling avant-prog
 
I think all these three names are very nice!

The Progtologist (my favourite of all the usernames with "prog" in it; mind you,I did think of calling myself something like Dr. Proggenstein)
Cygnus X-2
Snow Dog
King By-Tor (and I'm not even a Rush fan)
Man Overboard
The Pessimist
Fandango
Cacho
Ricochet
Atavachron (I love Allan Holdsworth; Star Trek is also cool)
Frasse
Reed Lover (from the old days)

And of course... Moogtron III Wink ; well, not really actually: it's just a name I thought of when I wanted to join the forum. It's alright but not amongst my favourites.

Technically, no.

But to appear cool, yes! Cool

P.S.: I do absolutely love Child In Time...unfortunately, the rest of Deep Purple leaves me pretty cold.

P.S.#2: There's also a ricochet in Marillion's music. LOL

P.S. #3: There's also a Metal band called Ricochet. Ermm




The real reference is to the Tangerine Dream album, yes?
 
I thought you would be mentioning Faith No More´s songWink

LOL Yes, and I seem to be stuck with it now. Imagine what would happen if one day I signed on as "Mike" or something like that Shocked. Really, I was just waaaaay into King Crimson at the time, and of course, By-Tor is just pure awesome - "By-Tor, Knight of darkness, centurion of evil, eternal prince!" Thumbs Up


Hmm, what are my favorite user nicks...? Actually, many of them are not around anymore:

DarqDean (always liked this one)
Ghost Rider
Sinkadotentree (for mashing so many bands together and still having it sound good LOL)
Geck0
Chaco Wink



HugLOL

BTW, I NEVER knew, that the 'King' was because of KC!!!!ConfusedEmbarrassed

Sinkadotentree (not because the bands smashed together - for example I don't like PT so much...)
progressive (yes, this is me Clown)
avestin (somehow.. I'm not sure if it is because of his nice taste.. no it isn't (though he has great taste of music), jsut sounds good)

Edit: I love myself so much that I just looked that last.fm top artists list under this text and thought how beautiful it is... brilliant artists and the listener has great taste!

Your screenname is better than mine and you know it. LOL

Mine's generic. I do love it, but it's not the most creative name ever. I just kept it since I've used it for like 5 years now.
