[edit] Crazy Bitch Cover
I tried to put a cover to the crazy bitch single on the crazy bitch page but it didn't work so I put it back. If anyone wants to do it here's the link to the picture http://img485.imageshack.us/img485/8205/crazybitch9ix.jpg -JJCook
[edit] Section
The next 2 you fan-video does not belong in it's own section.
[edit] "Sleaze" Usage
First off, I must say that calling anything "sleaze" in an article is POV.
This is from the "Sound" section
On their debut record, they successfully treaded heavy metal territory while managing to stay hard rock, while on Time Bomb, the band took their sleaze to an extreme with an excess of profanity and attitude. With 15, Buckcherry has continued their decadent, glam metal inspired sleaze, ignoring popular trends in music.

- I agree, "sleaze" should probably be edited out. This is an encyclopedia, not a Rolling Stone music review.--H.al-shawaf 22:42, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
Its not an opinion they are a Sleaze Rock band & Sleaze Rock is a Genre.
[edit] Chuck Berry Trivia
Interesting bit of but I've never read that anywhere. Whoever put that, where did you get that bit of information from, I'd like it to be confirmed. jewofunk 06:40 January 14, 2006 (UTC)
- Look at discography on the previous page. if u look at the albums, fifteen is up there twice (once for the American release, and twice for the Japanese release). below is are the release dates. it was released in America on 11 April 2006. but in japan, it was released 29 November 2005. it could just be an error on the page, but that's where it came from
[edit] Japan
Anyone care to clarify why an American band released their third album so much earlier in Japan than in the US? Blocky 02:20, 10 April 2006 (UTC)
cuzz they were touring Japan I think and probably had no label in America and wanted to try and hype it up since they were unsure it would be successful after such a long time since their last record that bombed. At least that's what I think.
[edit] Crazy Bitch
Shouldn't 'Lit Up' count as their 1st hit, not 'Crazy Bitch'?
Well "Lit up" was a mainstream rock hit but "Crazy Bitch" is their first real hit" It hit 3 on mainstream rock , 13 on modern rock and I think 40 something on the billboard , it's a bigger overall hit. But in someways you're right. It's what first got them noticed and on charts.
[edit] Severe Vandalism/Marketing
What's going on around the bottom third of the page? I see what looks like a mass marketing attempt. Can someone sort out what's part of the Wiki and what's been added? Gwrtheyrn 20:31, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
Yeah someone seems to be trying to sell Josh Tood merch or some shit. I'm trying to fix it up.
- Tell me about it. I came across this page, looked at the history... dear god. It's okay now, but I'll watch it from here on in. --Dayn 03:36, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
-Someone fucked it up again. There should be restricted access to the page or something to stop all the josh todd marketing. This is the person's IP code who vandalised it according to the history page-24.5.84.193. I looked at their edit and then undid it so now the page is back to normal.
I've noticed both this page and Josh Todd (the artist's) Wiki page seem to talk more about the band than they should. I've been editing Josh Todd's page for a bit, trying to even it out some, but I don't feel his endeavors as a solo artist, aside from a passing mention of him forming another band during the break from Buckcherry, should be mentioned. I see mention of JOSH TODD (band) members (listed above Buckcherry members) and the album art and singles for his solo album. Save that for his personal page or for a new article on the band. I'm going to remove them. This is a Buckcherry article. 24.222.102.68 03:33, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
Atleast once a week/month someone re-adds information about JOSH TODD band members, albums and singles. Once again, this is a Buckcherry Wiki article, not Josh Todd the artist or JOSH TODD the band's Wiki. Information about JOSH TODD the band can be added to that band's Wiki now that it has one. I'd be tempted to go so far as suggest locking the article.

[edit] ???
Shouldn't Buckcherry be listed as an Alternative rock band as well as Hard Rock? I dunno, I am having a hard time figuring out what is alternative or not. To me almost every rock band that came up in the 90s is alternative. They are often played on the altenative format radio station here. Alternative rock is way too broad... but i love it. lol. (Tigerghost 10:22, 31 July 2007 (UTC))
Buckcherry plays Sleaze Rock and Hard Rock. They weren't influenced by any Alternative Rock band. The Darkness and Lenny Kravitz songs were also on the Modern Rock charts but they aren't Alternative Rock bands.
Why are they listed as a heavy metal band? Is that a joke? I mean, calling them "hard rock" is enough of a stretch... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.75.36.39 (talk) 05:51, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
