Original Names of Musicians
As you know, many rock musicians don't go by their real (or original names). Many change them because they don't like them, they are too long, or something else. Anyways... this page is a compiled list of the original names of selected rock musicians. Again, it isn't in alphabetical order, and there aren't many... yet. I'll put more quickly, so check back. Also... if I am wrong on any of these please tell me so. I believe I have some of these wrong, I just kinda put them down off the top of my head.
