That's true Bill.  Even I go by the handle Dapper Dan the Axeman those names 
were given to me.  I didn't make them up.  I got the Dapper Dan from a 
college friend and the Axeman I got from a friend here in Columbus.  I 
thought they sounded pretty good and stuck them together.  I would hope that 
people who hear me play would call me "good", entertaining and soulful.  I 
figure that's enough to work on to live up to.  Dan Axt
