[edit] Recurring Lyrical Elements

-the Recurring Lyrical Elements section needs work

-one quick change was to remove the Bob Ross bullet. since To Bob Ross With Love is an extended/revamped version of Happy Little Trees, Bob Ross doesn't seem like a notable recurring subject

-hehe, I'm preeeetty sure that's not the Bob Ross referenced. I have an AP article and I believe that Bob Ross is a producer friend of theirs. Either way, I'm almost certain Bob Ross is a personal friend.

Do you know the lyrics to To Bob Ross With Love? If you've ever even read any of them, it's pretty obvious that he is the Bob Ross they talk about, not a personal friend.

-one change I wanted to make was that "Cupid's Chokehold" is a reference (lyrically and melodically) to SuperTramp's "Breakfast in America". Unfortunatley I don't know where it would go. 24.116.241.207 04:52, 11 September 2006 (UTC) Vampypoo

[edit] Compilations

If we include the punk goes 90's album, then there are many compilation albums that would have to be included. Are compilations normally included in discographies? -- SLATE 05:08, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Members Section

I moved the list of members to the infobox area. Currently it's just a list that does little but pad out the page. To be in the main article it should be expanded upon. Tell the reader when the former members joined. Were they founding members? What was their contribution to the band? Why and when did they leave? When did the current members join? etc... This would be better and it would make the History section more comprehensive. What are your thoughts? Generalhoneypot 01:51, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Albums / Lyrical Content

Moving the page away from being full of lists and making it more of an informative article

Rather than using the box, there can be a section where each album is discussed, (and a link to further info is placed). See the page on the KLF for an example. This would stop the page from being full of lists, which is what it currently is. It would also mean that those who wish to, can go into greater detail about lyrical elements.Generalhoneypot 02:03, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Number of Members

-I saw this band this past weekend and there are definitely 5 people in the band. Also, there is certainly 5 people on the latest album as well. I don't know much about the band, but I think this should be researched by somebody. --MattDell 03:02, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

Was this a guy waving a flag? That's DeJesus, the band's tour manager. They have performed with a keyboardist but he's not in the band. Prehaps we can have a section on the people they bring into their live performances? Where do you see this 5th member on the album? There are guest apperances by Speech and Patrick, but they're not in the band. Generalhoneypot 22:24, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
