How did you come up with your screen name?
Posted by: Edith Grove ()
Date: April 8, 2007 16:03

This thread has been done before, but with many new names here, maybe it is time to do it again.

My name is from the flat at 102 Edith Grove in London where Mick, Keith, Brian and Jimmy Phelge lived while raising hell in the early '60s.

I am really interested in finding out where this cat named Angus MacBagpipe gets his/her name. Makes me wonder if there is a new burger on the menu at the Edinburgh McDonald's! smiling smiley

It's my actual nickname. My Led Zeppelin-loving friends began calling me that in 1978 when I turned them all on to the then brand new Some Girls album.

I wanted to choose Jumpin' Jack Flash because it's my favorit Stones song, but it seems i'm not the only one and it was not available. So i added 59, the year i was born.

When I signed in at IORR, I had just been out in the snow, and right now I've also been out in the snow, it seems to be the main ingredient of my life.

When I first came across IORR in 2004 I never thought I'd become such an avid reader of the various postings on this web site.
Had I known that back then I'd probably select a more creative and unusual screen name.

I remember reading-who knows if this is true- that during VL sessions a cat used to wander around the studio. Keith named the cat "voodoo" and left milk out for him etc and then used that as the idea for the title VL.

>> during VL sessions a cat used to wander around the studio <<

it was a kitten that Keith found outside the studio in the pouring rain, actually -
he brought it inside, created little living quarters for it, including a sign that read Voodoo Lounge
and i believe it was Charlie who pointed out "there's the album title." or so legend has it, anyway.
Keith kept the cat - he mentions it in the "Ask Keith" section on his site.


- 1993 or so by Anton Corbijn

re: "with sssoul"

did keith name the kitten "with sssoul"?

i'm sure i'm stating the obvious...but i figured it was from LITTLE T&A.

My tits and ass with soul baby" (lyrics from Keno's site)

I usually have RubyTuesday0 as my screen name for all sort of things.
One because my real name is Ruby and my mum always used to call me Ruby Tuesday.
but then when i use Ruby Tuesday on the internet, lots of people say..
eww your a restraunt!!. Im like "Whaaaat?"
So, i guess Ruby Tuesday's are a restraunt...

Elmo Lewis was Brian's alias in the early days. He thought it sounded like a real delta bluesman's name. Nothing to do with Sesame Street!

Gwen is simply a short for my name. Keith called me Wingless, so on the french forum I'm now known as Wingless Gwen.

The obvious Stones ones were taken so I thought, well I like Bowie too and Rebel Rebel is a very Stones like riff.
