BCCC

During Brett’s youth many entertainers were using stage names like Ziggy Stardust and Elton John. While Brett was growing up his friends encouraged him to have a stage name too.

First it was “Bobby”, referring to Bobby Wier of the Grateful Dead, as he sang several Grateful Dead songs

They added “Cassidy”, refereeing to the song Cassidy By the Grateful Dead.

Then they added Credence as he sung Proud Mary by Credence Clearwater Revival. Later Brett changed the spelling to Creedance as in Cree Indians dancing to music.

So it evolved over time

Bobby

Bobby Cassidy

Bobby Cassidy Creedance

and a C was added to get to

Bobby C. Cassidy Creedance

This was shortened to

BCCC (Bee See See See)

Later in life, Brett Moved to Australia and it was pronounced

BCCC (Bee Tripple C)

and then

BCCC (Be Trip C)

Upon returning to Southern California, he re-branded to

Mackinga
