i noticed everyone has interesing creative board names (being the musical creative types we are) and wondered a.)what your name is about and b.) how you thought up or got your name.

I'll start,

TLiX realy came from the hip-hop band i used to play with. One of the first practices we had i was talking about a breakdown in one song and said, 'well do you just want me to add some tasty liks in that part?' the guys in the band thought that was soooo funny and since they all had emcee or dj names my hip-hop name was first Tasty Liks and then got shortend to T-LiX. One mom of a kid that was into our band told me it sounded like a porn-star name tasty liks, then i had to explain it was like Tasteful and then liks like as in a guitar riff.
welp thats the story,
whats yours?

"i noticed everyone has interesing creative board names "

Dude,
Are you trippin' or what ? My "board name" is my initials. Hmmmmm, Justin got even more creative by using his first name......whoa..... How about Jeremy and Nick wholly s h i t they use their full names !!!!!! How about that guy Knife Now you gettin way out!!! Anyway, uh, there are some of us who just don't have that creative stuff down I guess. :rolleyes:

ok maybe I just wanted to tell everybody my story... you got me there. Somebody else has to have a story on there board name thou. plus i'm just real board sometimes during my day job and need a little outside attention. I work with high school kids maybe there rubbing off on me to much. well its the weekend and time to play... off to work on the studio.
peaceout

The catch phrase always cought my ear. Soundtrack to life . . . which is music (any style) in general. If our lives were a motion picture the music we listen to day in and out would be the soundtrack to it. I thought that it was a cool concept. Anyway that was why I chose that screen / board name.

"ok maybe I just wanted to tell everybody my story..."

Fair enough Sam. BTW, was the kids mom hot ?

Yeah, Sam, sounds like mom was comin' on to ya! Are you sure there isn't more to this story than you're letting on???

ah you both got me wrong! I mean... I'm far from being gay and I do have a 6 year old son, but since then (my wild rock'nroll days) I've become a good church goin guy now (lives by the good book) and gone back to the old skool of just one woman, and that would be my lovely fiance' who is not only hot (in my opinion) but is very talented and has record labels calling on a regular basis. Yea i've found running after women, drinkn' the wild life kind of stuff only lead myself to depression and not having much to live for. Yea, one can say religion is crutch or what ever you personaly think but I'm on the side of I'm not following some TV evanglist or some wierd cult, its just a spirit thing for me much like music tends to touch peoples spirit or meditation in some cultures. Plus the other christians I hang out with are some of the best supporters of my music and studio and by far more encouraging of what I do and genuine concern for my life as well. You would be surprised as well how many other christians I've come across here in the LA music scene from producers to studio cats and all. I made friends with Marc Ford, the guitarist for Ben Harper, he also used to play in the Black Crows. Same story as mine and now he playes at church on Sunday morning and then goes and does studio work for Bob Dylan, Sheryl Crow and just cut an album with the Blind Boys of Alabama last month as well too. I know there is always wacko religious people especialy on tv that ruin the rep for the rest of us, but youd be surprised what church is like now-a-days and that being a 'follower or Christ' is more life than being a drag.
my2 for what its worth

oh and this isn't 'pushing' what i believe on anybody just a story that no one forced anyone to read anyway... (i'm real anti- shoving my religone on anyone)

oh and...

Nothing special about the name just a combination of my last name and the thing I love most after God and my Family.

TLix, keep letting your light shine!!!

Peace & Blessings
