Talk:China Crisis

message: Is it really necessary to have the catalogue numbers in the discography?  There are variations, especially taking other issues into account.  Is it worth it listing the CDVX 2-cd set of Collection, for example?  I don't think they add anything, especially to an Encyclopedia entry.  --Flata 04:38, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

thread_title:  Next Eastern/China Crisis? 

message: Several musicians have been attributed as being current and former members of the band without much justification. Whilst China Crisis has performed with a full band line-up on multiple occasions (and, indeed, full tours), the line-up has always fluctuated and the musicians involved have never been of crucial importance to the band - in other words it's difficult to pin down who is/were considered an official band member (if any of them were) and who is/were not. The fluidity of the line-up is consistent enough that the last show performed by a full band line-up featured a slightly altered set of musicians to the one that had been featured in the 'current members' section of the infobox up until today! Furthermore, as previously stated, many of the band's shows are performed as a duo (including all of the shows on the current tour) with the backing instrumentation being covered by one musician operating a synthesiser (and this position has also seen multiple changes on the current tour alone).
Consequently, if musicians are going to be added to the personnel sections' included on this page, reasonable consideration should be given to their actual status within the band (i.e. official member or session/touring musician) and appropriate sources need to be cited to justify their inclusion in the former.

replies: text: The band answered the question in 2018 thus: -  "It was from the communist era, Russia and China and the Far East, that was all exotic and it's visually so engaging. In the 70s everyone was wearing black slippers bought from Chinatown, we'd wear them on stage with our kecks tucked in our socks". I took me less that five minutes to find that via Google.
