Welcome back Big Al As for nicks ..... Goldfinger makes my hands hurt just reading it. I am allergic to gold (overexposure) and the contact dermatitis on my fingers ruined my life as I knew it at one time. So let's steer clear of that one. I have been JC to my friends as long as I can remember. I have had another nickname. When I was in the band, everyone had one. There were 3 named John, so it was a necessity. At one time, Christensen mutated in to Christmastune, then it was shortened to Xmastune, then finally Xmas. You can't plan these things, but if it popped up, I would answer to it (If a nickname is a right of passage on the list..... or elevation, or degradation would probably be more like it) Xmas On Mon, May 17, 2010 at 11:21 AM, Ray Buck <rbuck@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > I just added Aleta (aka Big Al) to the list again.
