[edit] Skid row?
Skid row were an early influential grunge band on the sub pop label, and never consisted of anyone even associated with Nirvana. I'm going to remove it from their list of early names and if anyone disagrees well...

- Nirvana performed under the name Skid Row in 1987. Just because there were other bands named Skid Row (which there were) doesn't mean that Nirvana didn't play under the name. They did. For example, the performances of "Anorexorcist", "White Lace and Strange", and "Vendetagainst" that appear on With the Lights Out were recorded while Nirvana was still called Skid Row. They didn't adopt the name Nirvana until March of 1988. -- ChrisB 05:24, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
- See [1] in "Live Nirvana". See also in the songs the section "Recording Session(s)", in which that session is referred as "April 17, 1987 - Evergreen College, The Skid Row demo, KAOS Radio show" --69.79.206.21 16:45, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Pictures
Is there any way we can add more fair use pictures of the band? I mean, album covers are good and all, but perhaps some performance photos (particularly from something like their Reading performances) or a screenshot of one of their videos would be a nice addition.

I dont believe that that is legal since the videos of those performances are owned by somebody and unless the release the writes we cant use those pics

[edit] Notes/References
Shouldn't some of the information in the notes section , be included in the references section. There is only one thing in the reference section and I think more should be included. Bill102 21:49, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
- Yeah, Come As You Are definitely belongs there, since it's a semi-official biography that is cited several times in the article. WesleyDodds 09:06, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Mass renaming of Singles by artist into Songs by artist
In a recent mass renaming of categories, we renamed nearly every category of Singles by artist into the appropriate subcategory of Songs by artist. We did not immediately rename the few categories in which there was a large number of both singles and non-singles separated, just to make sure there was no absolutely pressing reason that fans of those few acts (the Beach Boys, the Beatles, David Bowie, Nirvana, Oasis, Prince, Radiohead) wanted the singles by artist category kept. So one last chance: Does anyone think that category:Nirvana singles shouldn't be merged into category:Nirvana songs, as all the others except the ones listed have?--Mike Selinker 08:53, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
I dont think so, im a Nirvana collector, and their singles are very important, Love Buzz single and the Pennyroyal tea singles let alone have enough history to fill full websites, which they do hehe. Its hosted through digitalnirvana.net i believe.
Agreed, nirvanas singles have more relevance and backstory than the rest of there songs and then most other bands songs NINANDNIRVANA (who forgot his password)
[edit] Website
Nirvana doesnt have a offical website, the Interscope Site is for the best of package, it just describes it. The sub pop page have biography, photos of band and discography. I say we use that page insted, not the interschope one. -tourettes1992
Can I ask that we don't start a revert war here? an we set up something such as a straw poll to come to a concensus between whether [www.interscope.com/nirvana/ The Interscope site or The SubPop Homepage is appropriate? --Reaper X 00:07, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] "Nirvana is" vs. "Nirvana was"
Please note that it should be was as the band is non-existant anymore. ie. The Doors article reads "The Doors were...". --Reaper X 18:09, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
