What's behind the name? Screen name that is.
I have often wondered how some of the members came up with their screen name, some are obvious :C and others are totally :?. I know that since sooo many names are already taken we have to be creative ...

I've been debating with myself whether to bore ya'll with this story. Everyone likes a story right?
I play harmonica and have for the better part of 30 years. I have passed a lot of long highway miles foolin around with them.(I drive truck for a living) Anyway, after a lot of years playing just for myself, I decided to try with a guitar player or two. There was an open mic night on weekends over in our county seat at a little coffee shop.
I went over and listened a couple times and then got talking with the guitar players. They said grab a harp and come on up.
Trouble was I had stage fright bad! Could'nt breathe, swallow, talk. Much less play.
Discovered that if I turned my back to the audience, I could manage. Couple times like that and got a little confidence and thought if I wear dark sunglasses maybe I could face the crowd. It worked rather well. I had sunglasses so dark they did'nt even know my name.
Someone called out one night to get blind bob up and play some harp and there ya go.
