The '''Stave It Off Guy''' (or '''Stave''' for short) is the folk guitarist who first appeared in the [[Strong Bad Email]] [[for kids]], where he sang "[[Stave It Off]]" on [[Homsar]]'s show, [[Whaddaya Know, Haddi-Man?]]. He later appeared in [[Crystal Fortress]], where he attempted to convince [[Strong Bad]] to "come down from [his] crystal fortress", only to have Strong Bad fight back with a [[heavy metal]] song about [[french fries]]. Strong Bad describes him as a "stupid hippie", and says he "doesn't get French fries".

The '''Stave It Off Guy''' (or '''Stave''' for short) is the folk guitarist who first appeared in [[for kids]], where he sang "Stave It Off: 123". He later appeared in [[Crystal Fortress]], where he attempted to convince [[Strong Bad]] to "come down from [his] crystal fortress", only to have Strong Bad fight back with a [[heavy metal]] song about [[french fries]]. His appearance seems to be based on folk singer [[wikipedia:James Taylor | James Taylor]] as seen on ''Sesame Street'', while his singing voice in [[Crystal Fortress]] resembles [[wikipedia:Ringo Starr|Ringo Starr]]'s.

His appearance seems to be based on folk singer {{wp|James Taylor}} as seen on ''[[Sesame Street]]'', while his singing voice in [[Crystal Fortress]] is done by John Linnell of [[They Might Be Giants]]. In the [[FeedBurner Page#Powered by The Cheat - Crystal Fortress|RSS feed for Crystal Fortress]], [[Matt Chapman]] introduces the name "Stave It Off Guy", or "Stave" for short, which is later used by Strong Bad in [[Fan Costumes '09]].

According to [[Strong Bad]], he is a "stupid hippie", and "doesn't get [[french fries]]".

He also looks like Gordon Giltrap on his "Live in 99" and "The Solo Album" sleeves.

On the [[@StrongBadActual]] Twitter account, a video was posted showing the Stave It Off Guy singing the protest song, [[Justice Combo Meal]] from [[Strong Badia the Free]], suggesting that he was the singer of the original song. In [[Halloween Hijinks]], he appears on [[The Homestar Runner Mysfit-steries]] as a murderer disguised as [[Large Bean (character)|Large Bean]], before he joins the group's band in playing [[Kooky Moonlight]], backing up the song with the lyrics to "Stave It Off".

The page title for [[Crystal Fortress]] is "Davey Gets His Due!".  The toon begins with two [[Powered by the Cheat]]-style hand puppets eating french fries; one addresses the other as "Davey".  Davey announces that he'll sing a song he's written about Strong Bad, and a wig, moustache and guitar appear on him to make him resemble Stave.  In the rest of the toon, Stave is seen singing the song in a different voice from Davey's.  Strong Bad, in his heavy metal retaliation, says the hand puppets get french fries but Stave doesn't, suggesting that Davey and Stave may be separate characters.

[[Crystal Fortress]] begins with two [[Powered by The Cheat]]-style hand puppets eating french fries. The one addressed as "Davey" announces that he'll sing a song he's written about Strong Bad, and a wig, moustache and guitar appear on him to make him resemble Stave. Their connection is supported by the toon's [[page title]], "Davey Gets His Due!". In the rest of the toon, however, Stave is seen singing the song in a different voice from Davey's. Strong Bad, in his heavy metal retaliation, says the hand puppets get french fries but Stave doesn't, suggesting that Davey and Stave may be separate characters.
