Talk:The Average White Band

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Gorrie's life was saved by Cher" -- what on earth does that mean? If it's true, it needs detail. Eeksypeeksy 11:21, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

Deleted. The author can come back and explain whenever s/he has the evidence to do so. PennyGWoods 00:02, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

Ahem. Source of said information was from an AWB CD inlay. "Their celebrations however are overshadowed with the death of McIntosh from a strychnine-based heroin overdose, when he believes he is snorting cocaine. Gorrie's is saved by alertness of Cher, who keeps him conscious until medical help arrives" - from the notes to Above Average, a 1996 best-of compilation on Castle Communications plc.

Well done, Steve. You presumably need to insert it in the main article!

It was previously in the article, I think it was me who put it there in the first place. To be honest it is only a bit of trivia which is why even though I came here and stated my source, I didn't rush to re-instate it in the article, it didn't seem that important. But since you ask, I have done so ;) Stevekeiretsu 23:49, 2 September 2006

To me it's the well researched, so-called, 'trivia' that lifts Wikipedia above the other non-encyclopedic styled sites. Thus becoming a generally, well-rounded NPOV, research site for all. Frankly, I would encourage such input (but what do I know).
