It says Torquil Campbell has contributed to Broken Social Scene, but to the best of my knowledge, only Evan (playing bass and trombone) and Amy (vocals are the only Stars members who have contributed to their recorded work. I don't doubt that at sometime Torquil may have helped them play live (as have half of Canada), but is he credited or mentioned somewhere as being a "member" of Broken Social Scene?
- Look at the credits for the new album. He is mentioned as a member of Broken Social Scene.

[edit] The New Pornographers
Interesting to note, BSS is listed as a Canadian Indie Supergroup like The New Pornographers. Perhaps a new article is in order?
[edit] Picture with Names
I think that we need a picture at the top of the article that has captions with the members names listed underneath. DeadDisco
[edit] Touring photo
Looking at the photo of the band playing live, it's really dark and doesn't really show how huge the band is either. I have a much nicer photo at flickr. It was taken by me and I'm happy to have it used here. It shows 7 band members clearly with a further 2 in the background. aLii 19:32, 8 June 2006 (UTC)
- I like it, and it would be easy to do a L to R member ID. Are you willing to license it under GFDL or Creative Commons? See Wikipedia:Uploading images. --Dhartung | Talk 22:39, 8 June 2006 (UTC)
Yeah, Creative Commons, sure :) aLii 23:44, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

Bad, very bad news. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 193.144.12.132 (talk • contribs) .
- Hi, sorry about your issues with English. The band has been emphatic that this is a "temporary extended hiatus", meaning a break. It's a "supergroup" so most of the band have other projects already and they need to pay attention to those for a while. So relax! Probably in 2007 or so they will start working together again. Meanwhile you can get new music from Stars or Feist or Apostle of Hustle or Metric.... so it's not so bad. --Dhartung | Talk 19:09, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] YouTube links
This article is one of thousands on Wikipedia that have a link to YouTube in it. Based on the External links policy, most of these should probably be removed. I'm putting this message on the talk page, to request the regular editors take a look at the link and make sure it doesn't violate policy. In short: 1. 99% of the time YouTube should not be used as a source. 2. We must not link to material violating someone's copyright. If you are not sure whether the link on this article should be removed or if you would like to help spread this message, contact us on User talk:J.smith/YouTube Linklist.

[edit] Adam Marvy
In addition to initially tour managing, Adam Marvy performed, mainly trumpet, for most of the last two years with BSS. He is pictured to Lisa's right in the article's accompanying photo.Satchie 23:38, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
