    Does anyone know why he has the nickname Rage Cage? I was hoping they would have explained it in The Pick Of Destiny, alas no.

    I think it is just mashing his initioal together. KG does sound like cage. Where rage came from? Maybe because it rhymes with cage

    Yeah, Im guessing the Kage bit comes from the mixture of his initials. Im also going to guess that the rage bit comes from that he might get very angry, very easily. Maybe, I dont know. Its just like where did they get Jables(Jack Black) from?

    I think your forgetting who gave him that nick name.. its jack black..

    If it rhymes and sounds funny it works. Kage comes from KG and rage rhymes with kage! RAGE KAGE! Another example would be taking the word araknid and changing it to araknads like he did on the spiderman skit for the MTV VMA do when he say yer one who does buffy getting changed... "my arakNADS are tingling!"

    Yeah i didnt think it had any meaning either other than the clever rhyming. They're quite fond of nick names and alternates. KG calls himself Klip Calhoun in his other band Trainwreck.
