[edit] From Nashville?
These guys are from New York, for the most part anyway. Right now, the first sentence of the article is misleading: "Old Crow Medicine Show is a Bluegrass group from Nashville, Tennessee." It would be just as accurate to say that they're "from" North Carolina, because they really got started (or "discovered") there. It might work to say, "Old Crow Medicine Show is a Bluegrass group based in Nashville, Tennessee." —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Josh a brewer (talk • contribs) 22:59, 1 April 2007 (UTC).
[edit] tagged as "unencyclopedic"
The history section of this article reads like a Rolling Stone profile article. Better to summarize briefly and provide links to the various articles that contain this chatty, behind-the-music info, as interesting as it may be.--Dupea (talk) 18:15, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
I agree with this statement. Where are these quotes coming from? An article? A t.v. show? This reads a lot like a college essay and not like an encyclopedia article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.205.12.65 (talk) 04:36, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] First Sentence
I wouldn't tie OCMS that closely to Prairie Home Companion. They've only played on there a handful of times to my knowledge. I would also say that in a general sense, OCMS is more popular than PHC, so its not like they need the publicity boost or whatever.
And I would agree with a previous poster that they arent from Nashville, rather based in Nashville.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.205.12.65 (talk) 04:31, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
