Thanks Green Lady for directing me to this thread. Some funny stories here and some suprising. Your name conjured up for me this image of a proper English lady in her garden, not staring out an office window.

As for me...late to the party, late to the Stones.

Because my favorite Stone is Mick, and I was 33 years old when I joined the forum. Hard to believe that was 10 years ago!

Because I like the Rolling Stones and sunburst Les Pauls (amongst other things).

hot stuff---Not my 1st, 2nd ,3rd pick..

Every name I wanted wouldn't go through.

I even had to email Bv for help.

Now I'm hot stuff...haha.

For the AC/DC album, Keith AC/DC favorite one too.

***
I'm just a Bad Boy Boogie

survived college on cold Italian pizzas from josepi's pizza parlor.

D & G had been out a short time. I wanted posters to know I was new to the forum and fired up for the 50+ tour. My re-obsession with The Stones was not planned, I visited IORR to see what was up for their anniversary and the news of a tour began to surface. I announced to my wife, I'm in and I will see them as many times as I can. It ended up being 3 shows... Brooklyn, Boston 1 and Philly 1. Worth every penny and minute I spent on the adventure, Now of course I'd love some shows at MSG but I'm not greedy and appreciate the valiant effort from this band, especially Keith. He gets allot of grief these days here but I see his effort as heroic.

Easy: I was listening to Jamming with Edward and 'Edward' was taken. So...

Because I appreciate well crafted lyrics. It's more direct than "ActLikeAGoat" and not as crass as "CreasingYourButt".

I have a red 1969 Pontiac Firebird. Also, Brian Jones played a Firebird guitar!

Crawdaddy club was where The Stones got a name for themselves in the London area.

It was in a pub opposite Richmond Station and I lived down the road in Kingston upon Thames.

They never looked back after those days. ><

Hello,

Er, it's my name.
Haven't really entered into the spirit of this, have I hah-hah!
Some belters on IORR though...

Cheers,

Simon.

i am a Greek man

There's an interview with Keith from the Bridges to Babylon tour where he talks about how the Stones tours had become much more professional. and he says "we're late bloomers I guess"

I wanted to introduce myself.....

Because I was born in 1962!

I enjoy running, but try putting it off in my free time whenever possible!
Also, similar to some of your responses, all the good names were taken!
BTW-Prior to my first Stones show, I researched the songs Keith could have *potentially* performed, and forced myself to like them!
Never heard 'BTMMR' so I picked up the SG CD laying around and listened, it was great!

P.S.- Keef didn't perform the song, he did 'Happy' (Imagine that! ) and "You Got The Silver'!

So I am in good company. Once had a gypsy woman read my palm, back when I was in my early 20's. She told me my life would really take off when I was in my 60's. Laughed about it then, now I'm counting on it.

I am a Stones Fan and I am from Turku, Finland.

Hence, TurkuStonesFan.

this has been my forum name since ever on all messageboards. I picked it after all the ones I wanted were gone.

it's difficult to translate in one world but it means: playful, crazy, energetic, fun

on the plus side, how lucky am I to get a nickname without numbers and signs, all these kids being born now will have little to choose from

I make daily videos on the tour at [youtube.com]
Going to: London - Manchester - Twickenham - Berlin - Marseille - Prague - Warsaw

Well, my forum name comes from the greek name Laertes. In greek languague it sounds "Laertis". And, as you can see, i consider JJF as the best rock song ever. By far...

Buddy Young
Don't know if this has been discussed before, but I was wondering why you guys picked your particular forum name and (in some less obvious cases) what does it mean?

I picked the name Buddy Young because my real name is Boudewijn de Jong. With a little fantasy Buddy Young could be the international translation for my real name :-)

And for example, there's another Dutch user on the board called 'slasausjes', which means salad sauces. Always wondered why he chose that name haha.

Let me know!

Buddy Young seriously sounds like the name of some hilarious comedian from the mid-60s. A cross between Henny Youngman and Buddy Hackett with a side of Jack Benny.

My favorite song off of 'Love You Live'. I remember I also tried to set it up as my user name on some other web site, can't recall which one, and it was rejected because of perceived drug reference (crack).

Raahe is a small city in finland(i don´t live there)Tiikeri is tiger....Raahe´s Tiger= RaahenTiikeri.

It´s a nickname for one "very personally" teacher....and it come from metaphor "tiger of the wales"

A random pick in the moment. Stone Age was the intention but the interspace wasn't allowed for some reason. So, there you go...

I drive a 76 MGB.

Andrea66 - not very original. My name (man's name in italy) and , sigh, when i was born

Got my name from my 2 chow chows, Ming(I miss you big guy) and Subutai.

They're my babies.

Or do you need a whore? Or booze?
