whos from sotw?

[fluteypiccolosax]

did you use your same screen name thing on sotw and here?


i did.

[saxismyaxe]

But of course.;)

[saxmanglen]

Who's from where?

[pete]

We have a few folks here, particularly that hide out in the flute, clarinet and double-reed areas, that are not from SOTW (for those who don't know, that's "Sax-on-the-Web" or http://www.saxontheweb.net), but the majority of folks here are.

FWIW, I had the "saxpics" name before I joined SOTW, because of my former websitage, www.saxpics.com. I changed to "pete" when I sold my website.

[Ed Svoboda]

I am a former moderator and columnist for SOTW. You may remember me as Hurling Frootmig. When I started this site I decided that I would just use my real name.

[saxmanglen]

I've kept everything pretty much the same from my SOTW moniker.

[Ed Svoboda]

I went with a new avatar.

[Dave Dolson]

Ex-SOTW'r here. And, I'm happy here, too. DAVE

[Gandalfe]

Been there and visit often. I've a lot of friends over there. 8-)

[Helen]

I'm in both places too.

[Groovekiller]

On SOTW I'm saxtek.

[Bassoonist]

Oh yeah, I have an account there called "MusicisLife", but like here I don't post that often. I haven't posted there in a long time... Mainly because I have no working saxophone to play at the moment.

[sideC]

I'm sideC on both forums.

[WoodwindDoubler]

Of course, of course! ;o) I am WoodwindDoubler on both ;o)

[metbysax]

qwerty on SOTW.

metbysax is my name here and also my ebay ID.

[SteveSklar]

I use an encrypted name from an algorthym that generates a 128bit random name .. but for some reason it doesn't vary enough and people figure out who I am anyways.

From ClarinetBBoard .. and SOTW and a few other oddities

:)

a what??
huh?

[Gandalfe]

That's just neo-geek speak; which is pretty good for a rookie. :twisted:

I use the same one on all the forums I frequent except for work-based endeavors. That's because I have such a bad memory. :roll:

same here:)

[Connical]

I'm Toobz on SOTW. I switched it mainly beause I'm sick and tired of that username. I've used Toobz or some variation of that name on the web for over 15 years. Also, I get at least one comment or question regarding the origin of "Toobz" every year. The question usually refers to a particular part of a womans uPPer anatomy. But it's actually a reference to my older hobby of collecting old radios and hi-fi. That's also why I changed my avatar on SOTW to show a image of a vacuum tube, so hopefully people will get the reference more readily.

By the way, that 10M in my avatar is mine. And Connical is a reference to my Conn and conical tubing which is used in Cornet and Trumpet design. Which are my other passions.

UPDATE ! Thanks to Mike (saxismyaxe), I am no longer "Toobz" at SOTW. I am now " Connical " there as well !

[HaRon]

Grumpie on SotW, old nickname my (former) brother in law gave me a long time ago. Avatar is the same.

If you want to change your name on SOTW let me know via PM there, and I will take care of it.

Cheers.

[saxismyaxe]

Very cool. Thanks Mike. Ping me about your title on this forum.

Not a problem. PMed you as requested.;)

[MexicanDragon]

Ok, I'm back from a couple month LOA.

I'm MD on SOTW as well, and IIRC, every forum I've visited in the past 10 years except 2.

I'm "The Plague" on a computer forum I went to once (I know a couple of you will get it... there were plenty over there who didn't and I almost got band with my "welcome"), and DeadEye on a forum for a gaming center. "DeadEye" is a better sniper name (my usual profession in games... skill/loner thing, I guess).

Hey Toobz... are you on Head-Fi or Head-Case? If you dig tubes for audio, you need to be there ('specially the 'Case. I see parallels between SOTW/WWF and HF/HC... in a good way).

**BRENT**

Nope, never been there. I'll have to give it a look. Thanks for the tip !

[SuperAction80]

Same name different avatar, though I'm always changing them.

[tjontheroad]

Same name, different road.

[saxmanglen]

TJ!

The road is a little less "bumpy" here.

It's a good place to hang.

LOL "The Plague" ... I just watched that movie the other day (it was on TV).

"We are Samurai... the Keyboard Cowboys".

I came here so I could use my trumpet-squashing avatar. Any hope of ressurrecting animated avatars at SOTW?

[pete]

Well, you could always ask 'em. I wasn't even aware that there was a prohibition against them there.

BTB, as I mentioned in your profile: Greetings!

[saxismyaxe]

Hi Dan,

I don't see why not. I'll run it by Harri when he gets back from his vacation.

[Tammi]

I'm known as bandmommy on SOTW.

Hopefully you will see the better side of me here.

[Gandalfe]

I'm known as bandmommy on SOTW. Hopefully you will see the better side of me here.I was wondering if that was you. I like your handle here better. 8-)

[Tammi]

Yes, it's me. I like my real name better too.

Didn't anyone send Martysax an invite?


Hey now, where are my smilies?

[Tammi]

Do you actually think it's a good idea to have Marty and I together on this forum too?

I'm behaving myself pretty well so far. I'd like to keep it that way. ;-)

[Carl H.]

I heard a rumor that Marty's medical condition occurred seconds after being asked to be the mod for HT over there.

[Adagio]

On SOTW I'm "Arundo Donax" -- I wanted to use "Adagio" there, but someone already had it. For me, it's a very appropriate nickname.

[fballatore]

I'm just myself here and there...

[pete]

I'm just myself here and there...
Can I be someone else, here? I think I want to be Gary. He's got a lot of toys.

What? It doesn't work that way?

Nebbermind.

[rleitch]

Same name, different road.

Want company?? I appear to have been banned from SotW.

Rory

[saxhound]

Want company?? I appear to have been banned from SotW.

Rory

I read that thread before it was pulled. It's much more laid back here. Welcome!

Edit: Doh! Just realized you have already been here a while.

[tjontheroad]

Want company?? I appear to have been banned from SotW.

Rory


Huh? Banned? What you do? I guess posting your mind isn't as fun anymore is it :cry: I concur.

[pete thomas]

Want company?? I appear to have been banned from SotW.


No, you are not banned. Nowhere near it. I'm not quite sure why you would think that.

[Ed Svoboda]

Rory,

I've heard from a couple of people that SOTW has had some issues with Firefox or at least a couple of users have reported that they had a problem with Firefox and SOTW.

If Pete Thomas says you aren't banned then I suspect you may have some computer issue. I'm sure that if you did something wrong that someone would make you aware of it. The admin team at SOTW works hard to make sure that they inform people of these sorts of issues.

[rleitch]

Ed you are one halcyon dude.

Nothing wrong with my computer. I may just be too much of a Republican--in the best Miltonic sense of that very fine word--for SotW a la mode.

That and the fact that I'm seeing something going on that other folks just don't want to.

And...I found out I need a root canal today. Not the best day I've ever had.

Now I'm going to go watch some Canadian butt get kicked in some sport I've never played.

Peace,
Rory

[Ed Svoboda]

I didn't know it was possible for a Canadian to be a Republican. At least it wasn't when I took Anglo-American politics. I've always liked that our friends to the north 1) have a great national anthem that almost everyone can sing, 2) gave us bands like Rush, and 3) have lots of water. The water thing might come in handy.

[pete]

Now I'm going to go watch some Canadian butt get kicked in some sport I've never played.
I think y'all kick butt in curling.

The sport, that is. Not *necessarily* what you do to your hair.

==========

More on the topic that you mention (not sports, but SOTW problems),

The best possible advice I can give anyone that's having any kind of problem with SOTW is to contact their staff, as seen on the SOTW Staff page (http://forum.saxontheweb.net/showthread.php?t=75110) -- they don't have specific e-mails listed, but you can always go to one of their websites and then ask (or look for the member here -- a lot of SOTW staff are members here -- and use our Private Messaging feature).

Or contact Harri directly at admin@saxontheweb.net.

-> While I don't mind too much that people discuss SOTW problems here, we're not affiliated with SOTW and can't help you. <-

I'm a also little concerned that people will turn this particular thread into an SOTW-bashing thread. That's not wanted. HOWEVER, if you have seen something that you didn't like on SOTW or any other forum and you're concerned about that happening over here, you can certainly talk with Ed, Jim, me (thesaxinfo@gmail.com) or any of our wonderful CEs. Or, if it's a suggestion on how to run the WF or a new feature FOR the WF, please post in the Suggestion Box (http://www.woodwindforum.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=209).

[cromerblues]

def sotw member, same name etc

[tenorsaxman90]

I'm Mike S. on The BBoards and Tenorsaxman on SOTW.

[DanCraven]

I am myself in both places. thankfully I can use my trumpet squashing av here (not so on SOTW)

[pete]

I am myself in both places. thankfully I can use my trumpet squashing av here (not so on SOTW)
It's because my ex-wife's a trumpet player :)

(Current wife plays Eb alto sax.)

[bar-ron]

Just came over myself using same name from sotw.
Haven't been visiting much on either.

I received Hurlings invitation over a year ago I think.

Hello everybody.

[Gandalfe]

I am myself in both places. thankfully I can use my trumpet squashing av here (not so on SOTW)I gotta say I luv that trumpet squeeshing avatar. I need to show it to a trumpet-playin' friend of mine. Oh yes, I have friends who play trumpet! :twisted:

[Al Stevens]

did you use your same screen name thing on sotw and here?
I don't have a screen name. I have a screen door, though.
I gotta say I luv that trumpet squeeshing avatar. I need to show it to a trumpet-playin' friend of mine. Oh yes, I have friends who play trumpet! :twisted:
That wouldn't be me. I play trumpet, but I don't have any friends. Maybe if I didn't play trumpet...

[jbtsax]

My name is "Mud" on SOTW as of last week. I am jbtsax on this forum.

[Carl H.]

Aw c'mon. It wasn't that bad.:???:

Good to see you over here too.


SLIIIIIIIIIDE Dimaggio, SLIIIIIIIIIIIIIDE!!!

[Al Stevens]

My name is "Mud" on SOTW as of last week. I am jbtsax on this forum.
Since you corrected my "beast" punch line, I'll correct yours here. It should be "Mudd." According to conventional wisdom, the saying is based on Dr. Mudd, who treated John Wilkes Booth following the Lincoln assassination.

[Mike R.]

I go back to late 1999 with SOTW. "Mike R." was my original moniker there.

Anyone know whatever became of Dijaldi?

[Gandalfe]

Hi Mike. I hear from Dijaldi every once in a while. IIRC, I think I last heard from him earlier this year. I used to know his given name, but I've forgotten it. I kept meaning to go hear his band, but just never got around to it. Last I knew he was doing well and enjoying life.

[tjontheroad]

This must be the Land of Misfit Toys,

Good to to see Rudolph has guided you guys here.

Now excuse me while I shut up and practice ;-)

[Yamahaaltoplayer]

I am!^^ Of course, same name and avvie.

[Mike R.]

Yeah, since saxtrolls.com shut down several years ago. :roll:

Toby comes by here, occasionally.

[Carl H.]

I thought you said Tobias, for a second. My heart skipped a beat.

That might be his real name, you know ....

[Carl H.]

As long as Toby doesn't start pimpin his flute with a German accent...

[SteveSklar]

Since you corrected my "beast" punch line, I'll correct yours here. It should be "Mudd." According to conventional wisdom, the saying is based on Dr. Mudd, who treated John Wilkes Booth following the Lincoln assassination.Since I changed "beast" to "breast" and you changed "D" to "DD", I'm beginning to see a pattern here AL. Could it be we are both a couple of dirty old men?

John

[SuperAction80]

Nice to see familiar faces.

[pete]

Howdy, Geaux!

[Gandalfe]

And with the 'crat Big B sax avatar. Nice. Welcome.

[kcp]

I'm late to the party (as usual) but don't need an introdiction I suppose. I don't take enough breaks from SOTW; That is why I don't post here often :(

So, anyway... Happy New Year to all WF friends :D

[Gandalfe]

Thanks for visiting Kim. BTW, I luv your avatar, very nice. Happy New Year to you too.

[bari_sax_diva]

Yep, they really will let just *anyone* have an account here. I'm living proof.

We've got fruits, vegetables, now how long til the Nut shows up?


Welcome BSD!

Hi KCP.

[bari_sax_diva]

Hi KCP.

Thanks. I just changed, though... didn't feel fruity enough.

Hi Diva,
Yup, they let anybody join. I'm here too.
But I can leave if necessary.

We've not met on SOTW, but I've read your posts. Welcome to the WF. Nice to have another woman who plays sax around here... 8-)

So you think so, do you Tammi? ;-)

Tammi a trouble maker?!


NEVER!

Well other than the 25 times you had to ban me from SOTW, I'm OK. :lol:

[pete]

Suuuuuuure.

[retread]

retread here, retread on SOTW. Today is the first time I visited this forum (my wife often points out that I'm a little slow). It's good to see some people I miss from SOTW.

[Helen]

Suuuuuuure.

Shhh...You weren't supposed to say anything. ;-) Next thing I know, you'll be giving out my secret identity. :-o

[pete]

You've got it Ste ... I mean, Helen.

Welcome, retread!

What I like about here is my "Junior Member" title. Can I keep it forever?

[hakukani]

I just thought that the Macrumor's digital audio forum, the Fedora forum, SOTW, and now this forum needs to be a top hit when you google 'hakukani'.

Sure. I can do that. I have the POWAH!

I'm really from Kansas. I still don't know why I'm on a volcano in the middle of the Pacific, thousands of miles from a continent.

Oh, now I remember. Some woman (Ms. hakukani) talked me into it.:twisted:

It's going down to 9 degrees here in Philly tonight. That volcano sounds nice and toasty warm. Ms Hakukani is a smart woman.

[SteveSklar]

tell me about it .. it's already 9 degrees and going down here in Michigan

being on a volcano sounds kinda nice. maybe we should all take a roadtrip ??

[Carl H.]

Woohoo !! We're up to -8!!!!!!

My car didn't like the temps yesterday and blew oil all over everything, so count me out on the road trip.

[pete]

Yah. It's chilly, here. Must be at least 60.

:P

(FWIW, I lived in Buffalo, NY for almost 20 years and in Plattsburgh, NY for 1. I did my time.)

[Carl H.]

Sunday night I spent 3 hours removing snow. Corner lot, triple wide driveway and 4 feet of snow off of the garage roof - At least is was a balmy 2 degrees outside.

It is -11 and falling right now. I expect it to be around -20 by the time I am able to get out and remove the snow from today.

[tjontheroad]

Yah. It's chilly, here. Must be at least 60.

Warning... Hell is going to freeze over in Arizona this Sunday. The Eagles are Super Bowl bound.

[Ed Svoboda]

We probably hit -20 here and it's the coldest I remember it being in 35 years. Apparently we did not set a record low.

[hakukani]

I remember being in Chicago over Christmas with my cellist ex. We took the train to Chicago, and then down to Kansas. There was a six hour layover, so we walked over to the Art Institute from Union Station.

It was so cold that the few minutes her cello was outside was enough to snap the C string. In those days we were poor, and a C string was 40 bucks! Guess what she got for Xmas that year?:lol:

[pete]

Warning... Hell is going to freeze over in Arizona this Sunday. The Eagles are Super Bowl bound.
The Cards highly disappointed me because I predicted that they'd have another non-winning season. Would it have hurt if they had lost ONE more game? They were ALREADY in the playoffs!

I care little for football. Every game I have ever seen the Bflo Bills play, they've lost. Including those S*perBowls with Jim Kelly.
