thread_title:  Atari teenage riot 

message: Does anyone know the band's relationship with the Atari game company? They are fairly high-profile for their genre, so it seems unlikely to me that the company is oblivious to their existence. So what's going on? Did the band get permission to use the name and logo? Were those mysteriously left uncopyrighted? Is there a low-profile lawsuit happening? I've always wondered about this, and hopefully we Wikipedians can find something out on the issue. --BDD 18:27, 21 May 2005 (UTC)

message: Bob Hoag and Angus Cooke have been removed from the members section on the bands MySpace.
Should they not be moved into former members?

message: I saw The Ataris back in June and they were selling what they called a "Limited Edition Tour EP" out of their van. It was a CD-R in a little paper sleeve with artwork on it and 7 songs on it. Should an entry be added for this? DX927 (talk) 06:13, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  New EP 

message: This is the longest bio I've ever seen for a band that has never done anything but release self-produced and released records, outside of one one a tiny regional label. This looks like a fan site page for a small regional bar band.
I question whether this band should even be included in Wikipedia. Is it Wikipedia's policy to have an extensive bio of every unsigned, semi-professional band in the country? This Kris Roe individual also has a long bio page for himself in which he expounds on song writing, guitar playing and teh pressures of being in a band. I think this is all a plant by either fans or the band themselves to garner credibility, publicity and noteriety. 
Any unsigned band with zero hit songs or albums, no appearances at large festivals nor tours with signed bands should not be included here, in my opinion. If they are, I know about 20 local Tampa bands who have done as much if not more than this band who ought to write up their own adoring fanzine type page.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.100.9.83 (talk) 05:12, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
