Who is David Powell?

[David Powell]

Good question, Arnold, or perhaps you are kin to "not me".

You see, it gets freaky being "me";- once in a while it gets really freaky: Like here is a photo of a doppelganger bassist named "me", playing a vintage Fender, just like my '73 down to the rosewood and tortoise. Anyone googling me that read my gear profile would say, "Yup. We gotta match here!" His gray might put him within a few years of my age;- his father also died of cancer within 10 years of my own father's death from cancer. He spent some time playing in bands with his brother as I did, though those names and instruments played are different.

See why a more unique web alias might be more definitive than a given name? After all, neither "not me" nor I are famous players as "me". It becomes an existential question eventually.
