Ok guys and gals...help me out....
I am seriously pondering joining the SASS and doing the Cowboy "thing".
I need an alias my creative skills are not in this genre and I need some serious help with a name!
Thoughts? Ideas? Opines?
Thanks,
Andy

There was this alternative country band in Austin, Buck Naked and the Bare Bottom Boys (they were pretty good too). Thing is, they used to perform in boots, a hat and a loincloth made out of muflaps. Buck wore the Yosemite Sam kind.
I'm thinking since the band is defunct, you could become Buck Naked, save money on outfits, and gain an intimidation factor. ;D
FQ13 Who just wants to know which SASS events, not to attend. ;)

Hi;
The first thing I would tell you is not to jump quickly into your alias. Your parents gave you your name but you have to now identify yourself as you wish to be known. When I joined SASS I had no problem with my choice. It came naturally due to life expriences.
When I was in the military, I got all the dirty jobs needed to be done because I knew how to "get er done". I felt that I was the same type of person that Ben Johnson played in "She wore a yellow ribbon" his charector was that of the trusted NCO known as Sgt. Tyree - 1 dirty job assigned after another.
From time to time you will see people change thier alias and finially fit into the scheme of things. Take your time, kick it around for a while and do it right the first time.
Sgt. Tyree, SASS # 43732

Where are you from? What do you do for a living? What are your interests? As Sgt Tyree stated you should pick something that reflects who you are as a person. Or who you would like to be as a person!! Possible a favorite character in a western movie?? As dipisc did. I kinda moved away from the SASS idea for more modern stuff like IDPA. But if I were to join I would have selected Capt MaCree after the Lonesome dove series!! I liked what the character stood for!!!

A great name for a band, if any one still made real country. Maybe The Latte Kid? Or Colt Pacemaker? ;D ;D ;D

gunsRus,
Somehow the name "coffee swilling ticket writing donut eater" doesn't have the cachet that I desire.... ;)
"Dances with Felons"? " O.C. Dirtbags"?
On the other hand, my leather biz is my "other" identity which brings to mine names with Rawhide/Leather etc.

I'd avoid anything with a leather theme. It might get you the wrong kind of attention. ;) C.S.T. Ryder isn't bad (the donuts should just be understood). Blue Light Special? Bad Boyce (cause, what'cha gonna do when he comes for you)? ;D

I was going to warn you about even thinking of posting a "help me" thread like this, but by the time I got my chores done, there are 2 pages of ideas.
Go with The Leather Kid - if you ever decide to to be a "gay caballero", it will kill 2 birds with one stone, so to speak! ;D

Path,
I almost didn't post the quest for help because I KNOW how it gets around here.... but I do need a name, and this has been a VERY entertaining thread! (I won't even begin to tell you what my close friends are saying, lots of Sheep jokes/names...!)

Fixed it more to my liking, but that's just me.

Judge Hung Jury.
I think Jury of Six (or since we're dealing with SAs, Jury of five) might be more appropriate. A handle? Five of of six. Its got the Star Trek harmless geek thing going for it, and the not not so harmless subtext if you read it right. Handle.....Judge Five of Six. You get it or you don't.

Andy,
I like the "Dances with Felons" has a nice ring to it. Get yourself a Sheriffs rig like the Duke wore, and an old pair of cuffs like they used in the 1880's. To hang on your belt. It would work out well!! I promise. ;D ;D ;D ;D

How about "Ben A Lawman" (been a Lawman) ?
