According to this crazy article, these girls are GUYS!! Funny joke, but everyone knows otherwise.


It's almost impossible to find this page just by searching for Hanson or the Hanson brothers, why is that? Even though the Hanson Brother are already a band Hanson seem to be refered to as that, often

[edit] Which is it? MMMBop or Mmmbop?

Here's the situation with redirects and disambiguation (dab) pages:

My suggestions as to actions:

  • There does not seem to be an album named "MMMBop", so I would suggest that this redirect page be deleted via {{RFD}}
  • the content of Mmmbop should be moved to and redirected to MMMBop and tagged with {{R from misspelling}}
  • MMMBop (song) should be redirected to MMMBop without an R-tag

I think it's best that I leave it to people who are more familiar with the topic to refine, advance, or reject this proposal and act upon it if that is desired. Regards, Courtland 15:47, 26 August 2005 (UTC)

There actually was an album named MMMBop which was released before Hanson was signed by Mercury. I'll add an album stub for it with a track listing.

Hanson are not girls. The middle child is married and has three kids, his wifes' name is Natalie

[edit] Photo

Anyone have a photo to add? --buck 14:32, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Every photo that is added are deleted over copyright issues.

If there's anyway to get around those issues, let me know. I have a ton of recent photos of them that I would love to share with the world (via wikipedia)! --Molly 06:31, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Merger Discussion

Support merger of individual members into current page: 1) the group members have no notability outside the group (no single projects); 2) the individual entries are identical to this one, even the personal information is repeated in this article and consists of one sentence each. Support Merge. Jtmichcock 14:00, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

I agree. Unless the Hansons release solo projects, they should be redirected to this article. If a member has any notable biographical information independent of his brothers (is married, has a child, etc) it should be included in this article. --buck 15:07, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, it's best to merge the three articles with the main page- prehaps have their own little section in the Hanson main page.

So is someone going to cut and past this individual info onto the main Hanson page?

Yeah, if you're going to do it part-way, let's see you do this all the way. Thanks in advance. -Tim Rhymeless (Er...let's shimmy) 04:55, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

Why? Tons of other bands that have members who haven't done anything 'notable' outside their band have their own wikipedia pages, like Julian Casablancas from The Strokes. Shit, the Hanson page doesn't even mention which instrument each guy plays.

[edit] Personal life

Changes made to the personal life section should only be made if the content is verifiable by a legitamate source such as a news article or official release, or is common knowledge within the fan community. I say this because the band members are very protective of their personal lives and as such, information based upon speculation, rumor, or stalking (this includes unauthorized access to MySpace pages!) is an invasion of privacy and is inappropriate for any venue. That said, I am changing the statement regarding Isaac's supposed engagement for a final time and will leave it to other reasonable people to maintain this stance until such time that a change in this information can be VERIFIED.

[edit] Mess, mess, mess!!!

This article is a complete mess and shit. It has to be redone and reedited. It's complete shit. The discography sucks ass and the the bio is so shitty that I just feel hardly any interest in the band, speaking from a neutral point of view. It needs more work! More fucking work, you lazy bastards! Painbearer 18:48, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

Your vulgarities are tone are completely uncalled for. You should be ashamed of your language. If you want to improve the page, by all means do so, but do not do so in a vulgar manner. --William 23:00, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

Why do people keep changing it back to 'The Walk'? Even on hanson.net news, and the video they posted up, it says it's going to be titled 'Taking The Walk'. Grrr.

Taylor has said in the July 2006 Hanson.Net chat that the name of the album will be "The Walk". "Taking the Walk" is something different. Some think it might be the upcoming tour, others think it might be the release of the SETB doc but with the making of "The Walk" added on, others think it might be just the making of "The Walk" and so on... no one is really sure yet what "Taking the Walk" truly is, but the album name is definitely "The Walk". (If you notice in the H.Net video it says "a story unfolds" - to me that indicates it's most likely a DVD release of sorts, but that's just speculation on my part and some other fans on H.Net).
