I completed the merge of The Monks and The monks. For discussion relating to this prior to the merge, please see Talk:The monks. --David Edgar 15:26, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Mayor of Turtle River?

Is their lead singer really mayor of Turtle River? It was recently reported in City Pages but I can't tell if it was true or just a joke about the cities low population. The Secretary of Funk 23:25, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] My edits 13 Oct 2006

I removed the following sentence from the feedback discussion in "The group's sound" because it was redundant without adding significantly to the point:

"I Feel Fine" was first Broadcast by the BBC on November 26, 1964 for the Top Gear Program.

Also, I moved the last paragraph (comparing the Monks to the Fugs and VU) out of the list, because it makes a separate point and is not another "musical norm" abandoned by the group. emw 16:48, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cymbals

Use of Cymbals:

http://youtube.com/watch?v=UB4KhCG-kHM - cymbals can be clearly seen on the drum kit in this clip. although the crash and ride are not used, they are still on the kit and the hi-hats are being used to keep time. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 212.2.177.4 (talk) 16:11, 10 March 2007 (UTC).
