Talk:The String Cheese Incident

message: Anyone know how this band got its name? its something that I've always wondered about and considering how odd the band's name is, if the origin is known, it should be included in the article. -Drdisque 02:29, 22 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text:  The introduction of this article states the origin of the name is unknown.  Then below there is a detailed story about how the name came about.  Which is it? UselessToRemain (talk) 20:51, 18 July 2012 (UTC)

text: Just an anecdote, but I was told by a band member that initially, before Kyle joined the band, they considered themselves a "string band", and were forced by necessity to play what they considered "cheesy" music, at weddings and other such functions. So the "String Cheese" name came from combining those two concepts. I have no verifiable source for this so of course it can't go in the article. CodeTalker (talk) 18:58, 24 November 2020 (UTC)
thread_title: Band Name

message: While i will agree that the "tone" of this article sounds vaguely promotional, i think it's just the wording, and i don't mind anyway.  The actually writing could be modified to be more "document-ative" or simply informational, but i don't have time for that now, maybe some other time; nonetheless, i'm glad that this band has a listing, and i can't disagree with anything in it. 
i haven't "registered" here, so this is just a generic, "public" opinion, i didn't write the article to begin with.
This entire article seems both propagandist and skewed. It told me nothing I wished to know about this band, from the history to its current incarnation, which was featured on NPR National today.
The whole article needs cleanup.
I agree with whoever posted the above. "The improvisational nature of the music allows for a totally different experience each night, so it is never like seeing the same thing over and over." That sounds like marketing to me. (Sign your posts!!!) Centrisian (talk) 16:46, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Questionable Tone? 

message: I’m assuming that User:66.80.165.226’s change was an edit conflict with my change that he resolved by not resolving it.  Anyway, I’ll re-edit, and if it was an intentional reversion, please consult WP:MoS.  —Fleminra 04:48, 10 November 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Edit conflict? 

message: Hi, I've created a proposal for categorizing "taper-friendly bands", aka "bands that allow taping" within Wikipedia, and I wanted to invite people interested in this article to offer comments and feedback, since SCI are one of the more prominent bands in the category.  The proposal is at User:Xtifr/BTAT, and I'd be very interested to hear what people have to say about my suggestions.  Let me know whatcha think.  Thanks, Xtifr 11:12, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, I've gone ahead and added a couple of categories, and am back to add SCI.  It's a start. :)  Xtifr tälk 07:36, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

message: Was the band created in Crested Butte or Boulder, like the All Music Guide says? angular (discuss·contribs) 01:51, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I say go by the AMG reference until another source can disprove this. Of course, there is nothing on the official webpage or any of the fan pages =/ -- moe.RON Let's talk | done 04:08, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Origins 

message: Considering "reinstating" Jason Haan as a current member.  The band hasn't played together in a year -- why assume he's out of the band?  Is there any support for the recent change by Addionne?  Oblivy (talk) 01:50, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

message: "The settlement between SCI ticketing and Ticketmaster was not well publicized. The outcome was favorable enough for SCI to stay in the ticketing industry, though their company name was eventually changed to Baseline Ticketing, and the band occasionally attempts to avoid booking "incidents" with Live Nation, formerly Clear Channel Communications."
I agree.  The details of the lawsuit are fairly well documented.  E.g., Mother Jones Nov/Dec '03 at http://www.madisonhousepublicity.com/midpages/copypages/sci.copypages/sci.clips.motherjones.html.  I wasn't able to find anything about the settlement except blogs, but I think that reflects how little information is public.  The other stuff is pretty speculative, especially since the band isn't touring.Oblivy (talk) 04:29, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
