[edit] Splitting Jefferson Starship / Starship: Why?

What's the reason for splitting these two articles? The band didn't break up and re-form. The band just continued without David Freiberg and Paul Kantner and recorded Knee Deep in the Hoopla with Peter Wolf who had done work on Nuclear Furniture. They continued with the same staff and same manager, and still released on Grunt Records until Grace Slick left the band. JoeD80 (talk) 22:33, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Charts

"We Built This City" was not on the Adult Contemporary chart as the main article implies -- It was #37 on the Club Music charts. JoeD80 (talk) 21:10, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Merge proposal

It has been proposed that this article and Jefferson Starship - The Next Generation be merged into Jefferson Starship. Please discuss at Talk:Jefferson Starship - The Next Generation. ProhibitOnions (T) 17:39, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Thomas' Use Of Name

Since Bill Thompson and Grace Slick sued Paul Kantner in 2008 for his use of the Jefferson Starship name and the settlement is that Kantner's group can record and tour as Jefferson Starship while paying Thompson and Slick a small royalty, is there any chance that Thompson and Slick could sue Mickey Thomas for calling his current touring outfit "Starship Starring Mickey Thomas"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.198.120.63 (talk) 22:24, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
