Talk:Phish/Archive 5

message: Phish.net isn't the name of a newsgroup. rec.music.phish is perhaps the newsgroup. phish.net is a domain name, perhaps one used for a website so that sentence is incorrect, it should read either "Phish were one of the first bands to have an Internet website - Phish.net - launched in 1991." or perhaps "Phish were one of the first bands to have an Internet newsgroup - rec.music.phish - created in 1991." if that is indeed the newsgroup created of them in 1991. If this sentence is about a domain name, leading to a site, then it is customary to include http://www.phish.net, and domain names do not have capital letters. -- Random WP reader 10:34, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Internet newsgroup? 

message: Okay, this section either needs to go or it needs to start becoming heavily cited. I will start some research, but if people can't start coming up with some sources, this section will have to be trimmed a lot.--Moeron 22:43, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Show your love for Phish

message: I have moved the discography to its own page and now I was thinking of moving the Their music section. It would pretty much appear like this on the main Phish article:
Their music</br>
Phish's musical ethos is a playful mix of skilled improvisation, psychedelic rock,  folk, bluegrass, funk, jazz, a cappella/barbershop quartet, reggae, heavy rock, and intricate compositions.  Some of their original compositions (such as "Theme from the Bottom") tend towards a psychedelic rock and bluegrass fusion, with more rock, jazz and funk elements than the Grateful Dead and other earlier so-called jam bands.  Their more ambitious, epic compositions (such as "Reba" and "Guyute") are often said to resemble classical music in a rock setting, much like the music of one of their heroes, Frank Zappa.
And then everything from Influence down to Fan activites (excluding Discography) could go in that section. Thoughts?--Moeron 17:03, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I vote Not to move i think this is an important part of explaining who phish is.  I think it should stay on the main page, lets not get carried away with moving everything.--Gephart 20:41, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Sorry, I somehow missed this discussion.  I would be in favor of moving everything up to and including the Tom Marshall section.  We can effectively summarize all of that on this page, and have another page delve more in depth to their music.  I would rather see a small network of detailed articles than the large, sprawling article that we currently have. -- MusicMaker5376 18:28, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Other separate sections

message: I spent HOURS typing up the equipment the band use in addition to some things about Paul Languedoc, particularly I included lots of information about Trey's guitar.  I come back today, and all this stuff is GONE!!!! That was very credible/useful information for anyone wanting to know how the band got some of their sounds.... where did it go?
::Not to worry, all of your hard work is still visible (and easily cut-and-pasted) in the history (by which I mean here The info was deleted by User:Moeron who suggested this in an edit summary: "(again, please see Phish and their music as being a possible appropriate place for this information; information on each members instruments can be found at their individual pages)".
