Sometimes I get "DJ Pantz" instead of "Da Pantz", but when you have a name like mine it almost doesn't matter if people fuck it up, y'know? It's not like they're gonna go "Oh, Da Pantz? That's MUCH better!"

I still fix that shit though.

I've never been misspelled but I don't think my full name has ever seen a poster. Which honestly doesn't really bug me THAT MUCH.

Hah, this thread is funny. I think nobody ever believes me that my name is one word, and people insist on capitalizing RainbowDragonEyes which is always annoying... but even funnier than that is my old band "Destroy Destroy Destroy" being booked as "Danger! Danger! Danger!"

I think it's more rare to see it spelled right way

This list goes on forever

I've had El Huesedo, El Heuseudo, El Hosodo, and more comically, El Huevudo.

No one has done "El Huesado" for some reason. That's good, because I'm not into sado.


There are some other people who call me "Sudo", but that just gets confused with the super-user do thing.

Space Town Saviour is when you have all your stuff backed up by a symphony orchestra.

I've had it done twice:

space town saviors -- there's only one savior, sorry sad

space town saviour -- the european and ultimately more sophisticated version of space town savior

I get:
Wiz Wars (which I get more now because of my Facebook profile, but whatever)
WizWars (second W does NOT need to be capitalized)
Wizwar (where the fuck is the S?)
Wizwarz (cute, but no thanks)
WizWarz (this one just makes me anrgy).

I think the only time my name appears right on a flyer is when I design it.

I like being difficult. Just do a quick search on last fm.
Best thing I was billed as was "Over Rake".
Things may be getting worse though, I wasn't even put on the flyer for my next show in my own town.
Talk about a misprint!
