OT: The signification of your username?

[dackelljuneaubulis02]

"02" because it was already taken?

hahaha. i forgot the password for the original on another site so i just kept the 02. I think, or it was because that was the year they were together...I think.

Whos the dude in your avy

Mark E. Smith. Frontman to one of my favourite bands ever, The Fall. John Peel's favourite band. This still is from an interview he did after Peel's death. It's hilariously odd ball. The interviewer expected Mark to gush over Peel and instead he just said how they barely talked to each other.

He was a one of a kind. Just died last year.

When looking for an online nickname, I couldn't find anything so my 7 year old brother somehow came up with that one. It stuck. That was 25 years ago and I'm still on the fence if I like it. But you know, been using it forever so.....

Jabba the Hutt + Saku Koivu = Jabba11

DA is short for David .

Champions were a military unit in age of empires 2, which was the centerpiece of my first significant online interaction.

Isn't "Dave" the most common short form of "David"? "Da" is something that Irish kids call their fathers.

Best hockey player to ever live!

I guess...if you're too young to have seen Bobby Orr.

 

[Big Lurk]

Self explanatory

Mine's the nickname of a crappy sports team.

And mine is the name of a crappy beer made by the family of the guy who now owns that crappy sports team.

It was also my "go-to" beer whenever I went to Habs games at the Forum back in the day. I honestly never touched the stuff anyplace else.

Running man idea looked palatable when I registered and the "77" was meant to symbolize legs, as in the above.

The concept was updated for the purposes of this thread, so as to evoke the embarrassment of the Bergevin years.

As for the avy, it was chosen on account of liking the image, but also as a reference to my years of playing (not guitar but drums), which I continued throughout my university years, played in local bands, did studio work, studied privately with several university professors. Twas a fascinating sideline and still regret giving it up. There are several professional musicians in my family, so it made sense.

I assumed "77" was your birth year. If you're older, it's possible our paths crossed back in the local band days.

Could be. Props to you, you're soldiering on. I'm only a listener these days.

The smell of piss still brings me back to the old Forum and Molson beer. Memories.

Yeah I know. A little too far though. Only saw them once live....back in the days....with Scorpions and Dokken.

Still hoping that one day....John Sykes and Coverdale will talk again and tour....but it won't happen....

 

[Runner77]

Too bad, only one date in Canada and it's in BC.

As long as you got to see them at least once, it's in the memory bank. I had the same impetus not to miss out on Rush. So happy I saw them after years of listening to their stuff, caught them just before their retirement.

She's worth a ban.

3DO Might & Magic character but with a letter substitution.

Lshap is a contraction of my names. I've been using it since the early days of message boards and chatrooms.

We should have a music thread, like gear and all.

Msn gaming zone, where I developed the user name, didntd allow that many characters in usernames.

I have a good friend from Ireland and he always says "me Da" when talking about his father.
