Talk:Cherry Poppin' Daddies

message: I remember reading last year that Dustin and Dan left to join The Visible Men, but on the Resurrection forum photos from the March 25, 2006 performance definitely show Dan on bass.  I'm not positive Dustin was on keyboard, but I think it was (hair was different or something, as with many of them).
I first put them under former members, but after looking at the photos for a while, moved them back to current.  Unless anyone has any more definite info, I'd say we should leave it that way until the new official site has an updated member list or something.
I took the members from the liner notes of all of the albums to do the member list.  If anybody has better dates or anything, feel free to adjust them.  I provided a starting point based on what the albums said at each point.

replies: text: Now that the touring has become more frequent and the official myspace page has been edited, it is certain that the two "Visible Men" are indeed still with the Daddies.  It is now certain that the lineup really hasn't changed at all since 2000 or so, which is nice to see...  UnhandledException 06:11, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

text: I noticed that the Visible Men's first album gave Tim a drummer credit, but didn't actually reference him as a member of the band.  That explains it. --UnhandledException 23:17, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

message: A few sites list a greatest hits CD as having been released in 2003.  I have even read a review talking about how it has only stuff from Zoot Suit Riot and Soul Caddy, so it isn't of much use to CPD fans.  To my knowledge, this thing doesn't actually exist (I have been wrong before).  Is this something that was planed and never happened or was the release so small that it is completely off the radar.  I have never seen it at any store new or used, nor have I ever seen it on ebay.  Anybody know the truth?

text: Cool.  I have always wondered about this.  So apparently AMG got some sort of promo copy and reviewed it.  Just as well, it would be pretty redundant.  I'm sure that's how the daddies felt about it, too.  --UnhandledException 23:45, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Greatest Hits? 

message: I've seen two other songs on at least one Cherry Poppin' Daddies set list.
Jack and Jill
Is this song Count Basie's Jack and Jill or some variation of the nursery rhyme?  If anybody knows for sure, it should be added to the live list.
WYTKZ
I have no idea what this stands for or what it means.  It was on a set list.

message: I've changed the lead sentence to refer to the Cherry Poppin' Daddies as a "they" rather than an "it". This pretty much matches the usage of the rest of the article, including the second sentence in the intro, which says of the band, "They consider their style to be...". Hopefully this is agreeable? I think it sounds more natural, especially since the band's name "Cherry Poppin' Daddies" seems like it should be plural. T. S. Rice 08:12, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Cherry Poppin Daddies are" vs "is" 

message: I lived in Seattle around the same time as "Ferociously Stoned", thoroughly enjoyed it and their live shows were incredible back then as well, so I don't understand starting the history at "Zoot Suit". Very sorry I wasn't enough of a scenester at the time to add anything relevant here. Also, I think a "Controversy" section be added as (I need references for this, dates, names, etc.) at one point their record company forced them to change their name to "The Daddies". This only lasted for a seven-inch single and some live shows, I don't recall if the record company capitulated or if CPD moved to a new label but they were back with the original name soon after. hpp3 15:59, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I have been compiling a thorough history for about four months now, using archive.org to resurrect sites that are long past.  As soon as I have time to finish compiling this research (currently about 60%), I will be giving the band's history the completeness it deserves.  I can't promise it soon, but it is in the works.  We'll just have to take wagers of whether I will get this done before or after the new official site is complete at this point.  UnhandledException 18:44, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

message: Is in no way a CPD song and i think is should not be listed here. it's not a Solo project eather, it was steve messing around in the studio with a friends one day. Said friend then sold song.
:Given what I have learned about the song I would tend to agree with you at this point. UnhandledException 22:38, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Does anybody have a good more-recent photo that includes all eight members that they would be willing to donate to the public domain for use on this page.  This "fair use" promotional one is getting pretty dated, so much that I'm not even positive that it contains all of the current eight.  Madam O might be able to help out with this one. UnhandledException 22:50, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Good, if it has the current 8, it's good enough in my book until some official promos come out with the new album. --UnhandledException 23:44, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

message: I check pages listed in :Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of :Cherry Poppin' Daddies's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
Reference named "allmusic":
From Jazz: Allmusic - Modern Creative
From Steely Dan: AllMusic Steely Dan: Biography.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 06:24, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Orphaned references in [[:Cherry Poppin' Daddies]] 

message: I'd like to submit this for a Featured review (after a few more edits), but I think some better, less amateurish pictures are in order. What's needed is a new, full band picture for the infobox, an illustrative picture of one of their rowdy early-90s Eugene shows for the "controversies" section and a picture of Steve Perry for the soon-to-be-expanded "lyrics" section. That's pretty much all that's necessary, unless someone is willing to use a good pic of the band that would fit appropriately (perhaps of the horn section).Skibz777 (talk) 09:20, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

message: I noticed someone added a timeline to the member section. I'm not particularly well-versed in the standards and guidelines behind timelines, but I'm uncertain if one's really necessary or possible in this case. CPD has had wildly fluctuating line-ups, and with the brief tenures of some of the members, a timeline could be confusing: for example, the band had four different drummers in 1996, three of whom appeared on the same album...how would that be clearly represented on a graph?
I don't know if a timeline is justified or not, but I'd be in favor of removing it since it really doesn't add much to the basic list. If any roaming admins or editors wish to chime in, do so. However, seeing that the graph was left incomplete for the last three days, if it remains unfinished by a week's time, I'll be compelled to remove it.Skibz777 (talk) 00:01, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

message: A couple possibly interesting facts:
* Daddies were managed by Bill Graham Management circa 1993, 1994 who helped them find an entertainment lawyer and provided some resources for recording what became Rapid City Muscle Car.
* Daddies were shopped to Disney around 1992, 1993

replies: text: All of those would be fine to add, though they would naturally require references to source. If this is what you're referring to, Disney is indirectly mentioned as Hollywood Records under the "National touring and independent success" section; that was from an interview with Howard Libes, though I don't think he mentioned any specific years. If there's more info on either to be found - old articles, interviews, etc. - I can definitely add it. Skibz777 (talk) 21:44, 17 December 2020 (UTC)
