Embarrassed

I chose A Person because I was bored and I didn't think the forum would allow spaces, a lot of the ones I had been on before didn't and I really am a person, so I signed up under it. Besides, the name I usually use is already taken.

By the way - I also find bands like Porcupine Tree and Riverside quite genre influential Wink

I stick with the story I put in the previous thread.
 
First thing that came into mind. No real reason why. Oddly enough I rarely wear hats.

Mine is from the lyrics of a Yes song, but I'm guessing the majority of folk here know that.

Finnforest biography
FINNFOREST were formed in the mid-70's by Finnish brothers Pekka (guitar, bass) and Jussi Tegelman (drums) with synthesizer and keyboard player Jukka Rissanen. Mostly influenced by the MAHAVISHNU ORCHESTRA, their style also evokes early CAMEL, FINCH and CARAVAN. Their music is characterized by energetic and spirited guitar/organ interplay, interesting compositions and very good vintage 70's jamming overall. Unlike many fusion bands of that era, their (3) albums have a very under-produced, spontaneous feel.

my username used to be cacho as some of you may know, and I chose that back then because it was a username I used for anything I needed to register on the web, so I could remember them allTongue There's a story about what cacho means for me and my brother and uncle, but it's too long and difficult to explain...Embarrassed
 
I changed it to The Quiet One because my family considers me "a man of few words" and yes, they say that in english, it's not a translation. And also it's a reference to bass player John Entwistle who wrote a song entitled 'The Quiet One' reffering to himself as a quiet guy.

I refuse to believe that your name did not come from Men Without Hats, who famously did the Safety Dance.
