[edit] NOR
We can't really say outright in the article's introduction that the 1970s band is a hoax, obvious as it may be, because to do so turns the article into original research. What the article can do (and does do) is point out inconsistencies, and where others have noted this as hoax. I am changing this edit by 70.16.77.127 (talk • contribs) to reflect that. Nothing personal, OK? --Cheesemaster 21:02, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Clever
This was a very entertaining hour on VH1 classic. Fortunately, from the moment I saw the mocumentary, I noticed a few things
- That boy was about ten
- That girl had a very "modern" look (who is the actress who plays her)
- It was clearly a joke, as displayed by the facial expressions
It was cool, though. I recommend reseraching into the details about the mocumentary — perhaps figure out who the actors are and so on. — Deckiller 07:11, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
- The actors who played Erin and young Dave were, unfortunately, uncredited. We may have to wait for them to turn up elsewhere, it seems inevitable that they will. The film was made by Tomorrow's Brightest Minds/Oil Factory and the narrator was
ElwoodDan Aykroyd, but there aren't many production notes out in public view as yet. --Cheesemaster 08:34, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Per the Best Buy 2 disc set
Per the Best Buy 2 disc set, the "new" 2006 album is "Self Titled" and the "1974" album is titled "Make Believe." Need to fix this in the article.
