Once Upper and Lower Egypt were unified, the King wore the Double Crown which combined the elements of the White and Red crowns...
Am I right?

I just thought of something,
if you are coming from far away.
and will be by yourself.
you could share the extra ticket with another person that is coming solo.

He was gonna call it "Double Clown" based on a recurring nightmare he'd had as a child & found out that "Double Clown" was taken, so he went with "Double Crown" instead.

OOpS!
This is MY Double Crown.
Double Crown
Q: What is a double crown?
A: Most individuals have a specific growth pattern at the crown area of the head (the area of the skull where the head begins to curve downward to the back of the head). In a typical individual there is a single point at which the hair appears to radiate outward in a circular or semicircular pattern. The growth pattern may not be specifically circular but the growth pattern is usually apparent.
In some cases, an individual will have a double crown where there are two separate and distinct points surrounded by growth patterns. These are usually side by side evenly spaced at the back of the head.
A double crown creates a problem for hairdressers because the hair must be cut in such a way as to accommodate both of the growth patterns yet still create a flattering style for the individual. If the hair is cut too short over these growth patterns, you can find yourself with untamable hair that sticks out at odd angles from the head.
You must consider the hairs texture, density and wave pattern as well. Often, chemical texture services can help in dealing with a double crown by helping to cover the growth pattern and redirecting the hair in order to obscure the double crown.

Thanks Jeff-that's too weird! I was kinda kidding. I've gotten crap about my "Double Crown" since I was a kid. You or Sean will have to tell the story of where he got it.
See you at SG101.

See you at SG101.
My wife was in barber/beautician school, and as a gift I gave her a 100+ year old hair cutting manual, and it had a chapter that talked about different head/skull types. One page discussed the "double crown" - a person with two crowns at the top of their head, instead of one. I'm a big fan of Crown Records and Crown Royal, so I instantly liked the name Double Crown.
This came at the point where I realized that there were a few other Continental Records labels in existence, and I needed to change the name of my label after putting out 2 7"s and one CD.

Thanks for the story Sean. I had no idea mine was the right answer.
I've asked Jeff to donate the tickets I won to someone who has lost their job and wouldn't be able to come or someone who is coming from out of town and on a tight budget and could use the money to maybe catch another show. I'm local and able to pay and would like to help a fellow SG-101'er.

Very Cool Skip,
thanks for doing that.
So If anyone is wanting to attend, and is coming from far away on a tight budget, and or you are a local who is outta work and want to attend and can't afford it.
send me a PM and tell me your situation.
