DJ Asshat legally changes name + wants to be called Ash

[superglide88]

He should start a band called Uns N’ Oses

The guitarist went on to explain that as no one except his birth father really called him Daren and DJ seemed more like a nickname, he's often been called "Ash" by his closest friends.

He also revealed that his initials have also caused some confusion for him professionally, adding, "I never chose to be called DJ, in fact it's more of a curse being a guitar player. Everybody thought I was a 'DJ,' and I still get asked if I'm a DJ."

With that explanation, Ashba revealed, "I'm going to legally change my name to just ASHBA. So call me ASH. That should clear things up moving forward!"

What a nerd. He’s the least cool person on earth.

[HueyRamone]

DJ is such a pouser.

[Wednesday 13 Fan]

Well, it was either that or Muhammad.

[Chip Z'Hoy]

Well, it was either that or Muhammad.

One name? Who are you, Seal?

[Nate S Axel]

Congratulations to Ash on their transition. Metal Sludge will make sure Ash is never deadnamed!

[TooOldToCare]

He should have been a DJ instead of "guitarist."

[Hellbound]

Well, it was either that or Muhammad.

Why the fuck would it be between that or Muhammad?

[ParaDime77]

Ashba sure likes to pop his head out every 2 years or so with a new idea that’s twice as dumb as his last idea/concept.

Is he still selling bottled water?

[Hellsinkey]

Ash? Good luck with that. There's a British band called Ash that's been around for over 30 years.

[Black Stuff]

DJ 0Ash hat?

[MattleyCrue]

He needs to take a hair metal gig!

He’s gotta stop with the EDM!

[Rocker4Real]

He should have changed his name a while back. A rocker with DJ in his name sends mixed signals.

[EzyRider]

He has a legit reason, he might be the only DJ that is not an actual DJ, and there are 10 million of those.

It seems like a publicity ploy, but who can blame him, you gotta put some bacon on the breakfast table somehow.

I think he should have done the exact opposite and played up the DJ angle, it seems a natural fit with the EDM thing?

I dunno, it seems like he is in some strange grey area, maybe he needs to get back to RTFO but what do I know? (https://www.urbandictionary.com/define. ... fuck%20out

ASH is pretty close to ASS, maybe that's better? "Hey, my name is ASS, I'm here to kick some ASS, and score some ASS!!"

Kung Fu, do what you do to me!

This. Usually I admire artists innovating and pushing themselves. DJ somehow always comes across as creepy and thirsty.

[VincentVanWinger]

How about just Daren Ashba like a normal person.

[Hellsinkey]

Ash? Good luck with that. There's a British band called Ash that's been around for over 30 years.

Kung Fu, do what you do to me!

They have a few great songs and records.

“Kung Fu” is the main song of theirs that I’ve heard, and it’s a very good tune.

Whether it's DJ Ashhat or Asshat, Mr. Dreamy Eyes is pretty much done.

I think he's gonna records as ASHBA and just wants people to call him Ash.

of course, he could record as ASHBA and have his friends call him Ash and just not issue a press release at all, but how does that get him attention?

[Tommy]

Told my GF this story. Her response? 'He seems dumb.'

[Ozzy Stradlin]

[LAglamrocker]

Ash has always been rockstar and legend
I think it’s super cool Axl called him Ash forever now we get the honor
Ash gave us near perfection BC album
Ash won for us all when he got the Nu GNR gig

I expect great things for Ash in the future
Heel Ash is the best u should be jealous- envious of him just like The Rock
Ash has better life,fashion , girls, and water than all of you

[Zinny]

Doesn’t matter what his name is, nobody is going to call him anyway. Nikki’s got John 5 now.
