About Arnybarn Music
What is "Arnybarn"?
My whole name is Arnold David Colvin, named for my GrandDad, Arnold David Stapleton.
He called me "Little A.D."
Anyway, through my elementary and high school career I was "David". When I went to Illinois State University I dormed at 1032 Manchester Hall.
The first day of college, they had placed everyone's name on their doors. For my door the had "Arnold Colvin" I took it off as soon as I got there but during the first "Floor meeting" someone said, "I saw an Arnold, which one is he?" Well, everyone seemed to think Arnold was a funny name and from that point on I was "Arnie"
My 2nd roommate, Mike, started calling me ArnWa, ArnsBarger, and other various derivations of the name.
One of those versions was Arnie Barney and that seem to stick - especially with my girlfriend and future wife.
Arnie Barney eventually scaled down to ArnyBarn and that is what is has been ever since.
But you can call me Dave...... :>)
