Talk:Mind Garage

message: By the way, I have took the liberty in thumbtagging the picture and move the picture to the front of the article (instead of being a subsection).  This conforms more to the "regular" wikipedia article's format.  If user wants to see the picture in more detail, they can click on it and the picture will be enlarged.  I hope that you would not mind...  --Hurricane111 18:47, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

message: The length of this article is not in keeping with the importance of the band. Mark Allan Powell's Encyclopedia of Contemporary Christian Music makes no mention of them. In discussions with the Yahoo! groups Jesus Music list, no one remembers them being important. --Walter Görlitz (talk) 21:02, 2 April 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  insignificant 

message: It's true that in 1966 John Fisher was originally the bass player in the Epics. In the first incarnation of the Glass Menagerie in 1966 at West Virginia University, Fisher still played bass and Tom Warfield was the lead guitarist, with Norris Lytton playing sax. 
The members of the Glass Menagerie were versatile musicians who could play multiple instruments. 
When the band went to the Midwest in 1967, Warfield did not go. Fisher switched from bass to lead guitar, Lytton switched from sax to bass. 
The sentence “John Fisher, lead guitar, joined the Shadows of Knight as a bass player from 1967-1971” was correct, but might have been stated, "John Fisher was lead guitar player with the Glass Menagerie at the time he joined the Shadows of Knight as a bass player from 1967-1971."  But since the section deals with the breakup of the Glass Menagerie it is probably redundant to point out Fisher was playing in the Menagerie at the time. The article notes Lytton played bass in the Glass Menagerie at that time, so there was no need for Fisher to play bass also. Once back in Morgantown in the summer of 1967, Fisher was gone and the band was without a lead guitarist. John Vaughan then joined as lead guitarist, and the band became the Mind Garage.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.32.144.224 (talk) 17:43, 6 February 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  The Mind Garage 1967-1970 

message: If they they are actively recording, if they are actively touring, if they are still under contract, then it makes perfect sense to refer to them in the present tense (Mind Garage is an American band). Otherwise they are either on hiatus or have disbanded and it is correct to refer to them in the past tense (Mind Garage was an American Band).
As examples, look at many bands from that same era and slightly later that are not longer actively performing: Love Song (band), 2nd Chapter of Acts, Sweet Comfort Band, [[Bethlehem (Jesus music)], Gentle Faith, [[The Way (band)], [[Children of the Day], and All Saved Freak Band. Both Servant (band) and Resurrection Band reunited this past summer to perform at Cornerstone Festival, they they were bands.
So if the anonymous editor from Florida would like to show how they are still an active band, then by all means offer the information here or in the article, but don't call an appropriate edit to the tense of the verb vandalism. --Walter Görlitz (talk) 06:10, 24 December 2011 (UTC)
