    Mine is pretty self explanatory :)

    Love the song and "227" is just a lucky number that I use frequently.

    My criteria:

    -Music-related: From the Kiss song "I wanna rock & roll all night . . . ."

    -PJ reference: Ed said his favorite misinterpretation of a lyric was from Mike McCready--"I wanna rock & roll all night . . . . and part of every day." I was at this show (Benaroya), which was extra special (venue alone!) and because it was one of their first acoustic sets.

    -Mike-specific (he's my fave band member): This has always made me smile because it seems so genuine coming from Mike as a rocker. Of course it's rock&roll all night & part of every day--what else would it be? He probably never even gave it a second thought.

    -Obscure enough that no one else will have it, but clever enough that those "in the know" will get it (thanks again, Ament'sChick!)

    -Finally (phew!), it is self-descriptive. I do want to rock&roll part of every day!


    hey like the funniest "misheard lyric" thing I ever heard of was when we watched the youtube version of yelllow ledbetter.........so funny.......

    especially because I never understood the lyrics so when I hear the song now, I think of the you tube thing; it is so funny..........

    Ohh, a great thread! Some funny stuff in here :D

    I start using this name for some internet stuff ever since I came back from studying in Peru. Its is Quechua for "Lets be happy together" ...sort of like "peace", but put in another way.
    Whenever I would say stuff in Quechua to the locals they started laughing (obviously). Was a real ice-breaker. But it seemed I got the most response with saying "kushikushun" to them.

    AND the nice thing is, noone ever uses that word as a nickname.

    btw "lets drink together" is "Uperkushun" and that nickname will for sure still be open...
    Why not be mediocre and be the best at it that you can be?

    I used to use my great grandmother's name as my username 'cause it seemed to reference Pearl Jam. Then I realized if family googled her they would come up with my posts. :eek:

    Sea kindly changed my username at my request.

    My new name, is what I am in a way.

    I don't have a car, but I live in the city and love hiking. So, I hike around the city sidewalks, trails and parks. I'm an urban hiker and a total dork. :rolleyes:
    Walking can be a real trip

    yes, but as much as people tell you it's just a number, the number 50 sucks. i still do the math to see if someone made a mistake

    Oh shit. Is that you? I met you at MSG in 2003. You had a broken leg or some shit because I remember that you were on crutches.


    LOL! YEAH that was me!
    I had broken my leg the week before the show at the MSG which was my 25th birthday so there was no way I was missing that.... so I rocked out on a cast!

    Who are you? Did we stay together at the 30/30?
