Talk:The Lemonheads

message: The current article reads as follows:
"The Lemonheads are an American alternative rock band formed in 1986 by the singer/guitarist, Evan Dando [emphasis mine], who has been the band's only constant member."
Whilst it is indeed true the Dando has been the only continual member of the band, to credit him alone with "forming" the band seems both inaccurate and misleading. In fact, Ben Deily and Evan Dando first started playing, writing and recording music together c. 1984-5, and jointly decided to invite a bass player (Peretz) to complete a trio configuration in mid-1986, the year in which their first recordings (initially as "The Whelps") and first public performances as Lemonheads took place. This core of three founders played on all of the first four Lemonheads releases, and performed all touring between 1986 and 1989.
I propose the following potential revision: "The Lemonheads are an American alternative rock band first formed in 1986 by Evan Dando, Ben Deily and Jesse Peretz. Dando has remained the band's only constant member."
Everyone cool with this is being accurate and appropriate? Thoughts? Withnail68 (talk) 20:57, 29 June 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Proposal for attribution of who "formed" the band

message: This page notes that the Lemonheads' version of Mrs. Robinson was not issued until the '90s, but I distinctly remember it being used in the 1983 movie "Class", in the scene where the two classmates were driving up to Rob Lowe's character's family mansion for Christmas. Was that song out on a single before being included on an album?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gatorlynn (talk • contribs) 01:13, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Just a Question on Chronology

message: Perhaps Alex 101 and the anonymous editor/82.152.122.201 (which, by the way, never helps w/credibility...just FYI) can settle this dispute about Varshons and release dates and so forth simply by citing verifiable (Wikipedia:Verifiability) sources of some kind? Otherwise this kind of thing tends to kinda turn into a shouting match. :-) I'm sure you both have reasons to believe your info is correct, so the best wikipedian way to work this out would probably be to cite the sources for yer respective points of view, and settle on the most credible/verifiable...um, I'm just saying, is all. Go team! Withnail68 (talk) 14:57, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Hoping to avert an edit war... :-) 

message: I removed reference to Christina Aguilera cover as "more surprisingly." Not the least bit surprising, actually, from a band among whose first covers was a kitsch version of Suzanne Vega's "Luka," as well as copious similar cross-genre covers: Patsy Cline, Linda Ronstadt, Simon & Garfunkel, etc...Aguilera sounds par for the course. (Looking forward to hearing it, actually...) :-) Withnail68 (talk) 14:28, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: 82.152.122.201, the user who described the Christina Aguilera cover as "more surprisingly", has been vandalizing the page for the last couple days. He deserves a ban because he repeatedly removes the paragraph about a new studio album (with original material) that was intended to follow their self-titled record.

thread_title: Also in re: Varshons

message: Someone keeps adding that the album Varshons will be release on Vagrant which is incorrect, label is still to be announced. Also the release date of September 08 is not confirmed but keeps being added as a fact.
Also, someone keeps adding that a new studio album is due out next year, citing the punknews website as a reference, although that article is actually talking about Varshons.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.152.122.201 (talk) 16:55, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Wrong info on new album

message: The article does not mention which of the members plays which instrument(s), and I would think a Members section would be useful (in the infobox, too). Therefore, I have changed the WikiProject Biography assessment from B to Start. Regards, BNutzer 14:53, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Lemonheads article from 1992 in Melody Maker republished by Crawdaddy

message: Fire records claim in various places to have handled The Lemonheads at various times in their career. Should they be added to the list or be included in a new section on the various people who have tried to take credit for The Lemonhead success http://www.firerecords.com/site/index.php?page=artists&artistid=00000000049  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.69.68.255 (talk) 19:43, 10 May 2013 (UTC)
