Name/Avatar Origins

[dragonboy]

My picture at present is from a trip I was on in June. :)

Where's it from? I've often wondered...

[dragonboy]

yeah, definitely yoinked the ernie ball ad for that one.

For me Eisey, regardless of what you really look like, you'll always be the guy in that picture.

I remember noticing it when I first started lurking & thinking man, that dude is rocking a mullet!!!

[Jennifer]

I was given the name Jennifer at birth. I'll most likely die with this name. Unless, of course, I become a transexual and legally change my name to Ray N. Carnation.

My avatar is Can's album cover for Ege Bamyasi.

[dragonboy]

To be honest, I want to change the name...but, what the hell.

What would you change it to? How's about radiohead?  ;)

[EC]

Where's it from? I've often wondered...

Well, I think it's from the Smokey mountains when we took the Blue Ridge Parkway, and had to stop at EVERY single stop place to look at the scenery.  Now, I believe this is somewhere close to Grandfather mountain.

But it could also be close to the KOA we stayed in on a twilight drive.

But I'm pretty sure my first answer is correct. :)

It was a beautiful, albeit scary (Jen driving + misty roads = terror) drive.

self explanatory.  'nuff said!  Excelsior!

"More Cowbell" olwiggum, and ratspayer I finally got it, know where to seperate the letters. and Ever Classic and Primushead & everyone here...good thread!

[marktwain]

Tundra is just an old nickname, from when I was a kid.  It sounds like my last name, kind of.

My avatar is Zoot, the sax player for the Electric Mayhem.  I used to think he was the epitome of cool, back when the Muppets were on. (Not that I consider myself the epitome of cool.)

But I change the pic pretty often, I think.

[primushead]

That's so funny - I really did think you were a big Primus fan!

Don't get me wrong.  I am a big primus fan.  I've got all of their albums and I've seen them 3 times...but I just thought the name sounded kind of cool. :)

[primushead]

Radiohead...like the Talking Heads song, right? :)  That's just crazy enough to work!

[tomEisenbraun]

wait, so what is it now, Tundra?

[marktwain]

That's Hurley, a character from 'Lost.'

He's almost as cool as Zoot.

[primushead]

He was the drug dealer on a 'curb your enthusiasm'.  I think he was also on Becker.

[marktwain]

I was a drug dealer on Curb Your Enthusiasm

I just put the U2 avatar on in preparation for seeing them in atlanta (sorry ya'll, u2 is my true guilty pleasure).

Don't feel guilty you are not alone.  I saw U2 on the 12th in Toronto.  It was amazing.

My name is from my business, Sideroad 32 Productions.   I usually just use sideroad but it was taken mysteriously...

My Avatar is a Hammond B3.  Why? I don't know. just thought it looked cool.

Lucky...how were the lights?  Good set?  Favorite song from the evening.  I must know!

The lights were incredible, they get more ambitious with every tour.  The set was very solid, and they even did a bit of a rehash of the ZooTV tour so that was very cool (I love Achtung Baby) playing a couple songs in a row in that style.  They played for almost 2 1/2 hours.  Its was fantastic.  I always love Bullit the Blue Sky and Edge did a killer solo in it so I'd have to go with that for a favourite song but its very hard to pick with U2.
Hope you have as good a time in Atlanta.

Nice.  I'm a big fan of AB too.  If they did zoo station, that'd be sweet.  Glad you had a good time, and thanks for the review.  Only 47 more days! Woo!

They Played ZooStation in TO so keep em crossed.
