Principled Man Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 I got this thing about principles, ya see.......integrity, doing the right thing, owning up, all that antiquated BS......;) ;)
Narps Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 This all has been very interesting, I must say. Some people have been really creative with their usernames.And some are very creative with their avatars too...... :)
drbirdsong Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 Found this place while looking for live shows some time ago. Logged in with standard name. Initials + last name makes me sounds like a dokter. The rest be history.

The rest be history. Your last name is Birdsong? That's really cool! (You don't happen to be an ornithologist, do you? ;) )
Dscrapre Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 No relation. It's an ancient nickname whose origins make no sense whatsoever. I'm not sure why I even keep using it for stuff. Lack of creativity I guess.
The Analog Grownup Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 I love analog stuff like paper, vinyl records and analog amplifiers and think most things digital is devoid of "soul". Besides I grew up before mobile phones, Internet, compact discs so it made sense. Also it's a play on the song The Analog Kid, which is not really a fave by the way :) 2
Thunder Bay Rush Posted March 20, 2014 Author Posted March 20, 2014 Dude, I’m totally with you on the analog stuff. Some of this digital shit is way too much for me… I wish I had kept all my old vinyl LPs. 1

Lost In Xanadu Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 Cygnus was taken.I always thought it had something to do with Top Gun 1
PolarizeMe Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 Obviously, my profile name came from The first two words that Geddy sang in Animate. I would've gone with the name "Animate" itself but I believe the name was taken already and I wanted have two-word name in my profile name that didn't bore any relation to "Tom Sawyer" or "Red Barchetta" in it somehow because I figured that's been overdone already.

Citizen of the World Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 Mine has the Rush connection as it is in a line from "Territories". More significantly it comes from Socrates, "I am not an Athenian or a Greek, but a citizen of the world."
bathory Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 and a murderer from the 15 or 1600s but I got the name from the band 1
Narps Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 bathory is a band by the wayWoohoo!!! I knew that believe it or not... :cheers: 1
bathory Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 bathory is a band by the wayWoohoo!!! I knew that believe it or not... :cheers: :haz:
MMCXII Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 Something just occurred to me.. The best name here would be one that has nothing to do with Rush because that's the one thing we can assume we all have in common.. It's better to have one that's different or unique like treefuck or moose or gemini-crisis.. *disclaimer:All names appearing in the above post are fictitious.

MMCXII Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 bathory is a band by the wayWoohoo!!! I knew that believe it or not... :cheers: :haz: Dude you should've replied with a YouTube video.. Or do I need to find it myself? Lol I've never heard of Bathory.
Syrinx Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 I made it up because I thought it sounded cool. Nothing to do with Rush.
x1yyz Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 I made it up because I thought it sounded cool. Nothing to do with Rush. You're named after the pet rat I had as a teenager ;)

Stormtron Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 Mine has nothing to do with Rush, it's just my favorite G.I. Joe character. I started using it way back in the day when I was obsessed with collecting 80s toys and whatnot. Been using it so long that most of my friends that I met from online call me Storm or Stormy in real life now, and I'm fine with that. 1
bathory Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 I don't think many folks here would dig bathory. bad production, rough vocals, etc. they (more like he, since one dude wrote all the music/lyrics) get the credit for helping start black metal and "viking metal," neither of which is very popular around here. every time I registered here for a while I'd get banned anyway so I purposely named a few accounts after some "extreme" metal bands cause I knew most folks here hated that shit and hadn't heard of hardly any of the bands.
