Rock 'n Roll Inspired Aliases

[DocWard]

I was driving home from my daughter's today and Smoke on the Water by Deep Purple came on. I was singing along when it got to the part about "Funky Claude was running in and out" and for some reason it struck me that "Funky Claude" would be an amusing alias. Of course there's "Tom Sawyer" from the Rush song. I'm sure there are plenty of others out there. Thoughts? Ideas?

I very briefly considered "Fred Zeppelin" which, while being a play on the name of one of my two favorite bands, was the on air name of the traffic guy for KZEP in San Antonio when I was there during Desert Storm.

[Blackwater 53393]

My alias is Rock inspired.  The original alias was Blackwater Desperado. It was my third choice, back when you had to mail in your application and you offered three aliases.

 

Blackwater is the title of the Doobie Brothers song and, of course, the Eagles’ Desperado. After more than ten years of writing all that on match entry forms and most folks having shortened it to Blackwater anyway, I called the SASS office and got it changed officially.

 

’Course, it’s been changed to Dishwater, Pondwater, Bathwater, and Badger Mountain Charlie called me Backwater for all those years, so I mostly answer to anything close, so long as I get called in time for supper and ya’ spell it right on the check!!

Funny you should mention that, at Yuma for the Territorial Prison Break I was listening to Centerfold by the J Geils band and I thought that would make a great alias. Now finding someone to fit the alias might be hard to do.

[Steel-eye Steve SASS #40674]

My alias is folk rock inspired.

Savage Sid from Benny the Bouncer on the

Brain Salad Surgery album.

 

This shooter you would not want to mess with! 

 

 

Benny was the bouncer at the Palais de Dance
He'd slash your granny's face up given half a chance.
He'd sell you back the pieces, all for less than half a quid
He thought he was the meanest-
Until he met with Savage Sid.

Now Sidney was a greaser with some nasty roots
He poured a pint of Guinness over Benny's boots
Benny looked at Sidney:
Sidney stared right back in his eye.
Sidney chose a switchblade
And Benny got a cold meat pie.
Oh! what a terrible sight,
Much to the people's delight.
One hell of a fight.

Sidney grabbed a hatchet, buried it, in Benny's head.
The people gasped as he bled:
The end of a Ted?

Well, they dragged him from the wreckage of the Palais in bits.
They tried to stick together all the bits that would fit.
But some of him was missing
And "part of him" arrived too late,
So now he works for Jesus
As the bouncer at St. Peter's Gate.

Stagger Lee from Neil Diamond

 

The night was clear and the moon was yellow
And the leaves came tumbling down

I was standing on the corner
When I heard my bulldog bark
He was barking up at the two men
Who were gambling in the dark

It was Stagger Lee and Billy
Two men who gambled late
Stagger Lee threw a seven
Billy swore, he threw an eight
Stagger Lee told "Billy,
I can't let you get away with that
Well, you've won all my money
And my brand new stetson hat"

Stagger Lee ran home
Went and got him his 44
Said, "I'm going to the bar room
Just to pay that debt that I owe"

Go Stagger Lee, Go Stagger Lee
Go Stagger Lee, Go Stagger Lee
Said, "I' m going to the bar room
Just to pay that debt that I owe"

Stagger Lee went to the bar room
Boy, he stood across the bar room doors
Said, "now, nobody move"
And he pulled out his 44

"Stagger Lee", cried Billy
"Oh, please don't you take my life
I got me three little children
And a very sickly wife"

Go Stagger Lee, Go Stagger Lee
Go Stagger Lee, Go Stagger Lee
"got me three little children
And a very, very sickly wife"

Stagger Lee shot Billy
Boy, he shot that poor boy so bad
That the bullet came through Billy
And went right through the bartender's glass

While I was standing on the corner
When I heard my bulldog bark
He was barking up at the two men
Who were gambling in the dark

Go Stagger Lee, Go Stagger Lee
Go Stagger Lee, Go Stagger Lee
Well, he was barking up at the two men
Who were gambling in the dark

And then there is Van Ronk https://songmeanings.com/songs/view/3530822107859530065/

Never heard the Neil Diamond version, but was never a fan of his.

[DocWard]

Being a Rush fan, it dawned on me that someone with red hair could go by "Red Bart Chetta."
