Talk:Toad the Wet Sprocket

message: The article says that Toad formed in 1986 when Glen Phillips was 14. Glen Phillips' page says he was born in 1970, making it impossible for him to have been 14 at any point in 1986. Something here is inaccurate, either the year they were formed or Phillips' age at the time.--Jonk1011 (talk) 03:00, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Origins of band

message: I can find no info that Toad is working on a new album.  Everything I find shows that they are still working seperately.  Can anyone verify? (unsigned comment, 8 March 2005 by Windischa)
*I'm a pretty decent regular on glen's website message boards and I have not yet seen anything regarding a new Toad album. Frankly, I would be quite surprised if there was one in the works. (unsigned comment, 9 March 2005 by 207.74.123.2)
*I think someone is confused because of Glen's new CD.  I did reseach, couldn't verify and removed it.  I would love to be proven wrong. Cmouse 05:54, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: New album?

message: I changed the reference from the John Cleese monologue to Eric Idle, as I'm more than 90% sure it's correct. If anyone thinks I'm wrong discuss it here. -R. fiend 15:34, 18 Mar 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Eric Idle

message: I'm curious as to where the classification "Folk Pop" came from.  Indeed, I'm not exactly sure what genre TtWS should be.  I've heard "Alternative Rock" most often.  A quick skim of the Folk Music article mentions some articles that can be likened to TtWS.  Nothing about Folk Pop is mentioned, though.  There is a reference (in the discussion of that article) to "Folk Rock" music, which might be the better classification.  I'm not making any change based on this, since I'm anything but knowledgeable about music genres. Gertlex 17:06, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Folk Pop

message: I just completed a rather large rewrite of this entry, trying to expand the information so it was more of an article and less just sections with charts and outlines of information.  Two major things I did was remove all the singles information below the singles chart, assuming we can put any relevant info with the album pages, and removed the compilations, as very few of those comps included otherwise unknown music from albums.  
I also removed the speculation on the 2006 reunion tour, as I couldn't find any sources on it.  --badlydrawnjeff (WP:MEME?) 20:51, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Rewrite

message: The article has no mention of the British heavy metal band Toad the Wet Sprocket, from the late 1970s.    They only released a few singles and made a few compilation appearances, but there should at least be a one-line "this band is not to be confused with" mention, or even a disambiguation page. -Ashley Pomeroy (talk) 02:07, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: You (or anyone) could go ahead and create the other article, Toad the Wet Sprocket (UK band), and then we could add a hatnote on this article to help readers navigate to it. But we usually do not add the hatnote (or create a disambiguation page) until the other article exists. --Paul Erik (talk)(contribs) 02:16, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: There was a mention of the NWOBHM band here at one point coz I put it there myself!  But I don't know enough about them to write an article; the sole thing I could tell anyone is that I once saw them supporting Samson and Iron Maiden at the University of Surrey (and they were a bit crap).

thread_title: Notes at the end

message: The name is attributed to "Rock Notes" on Monty Python's Contractual Obligation Album (1980), but it was first used in Rutland Weekend Television (1975).  I considered the possibility that COA consisted of old leftovers recorded before 1975, but its article indicates that the RWT bit came first. —Tamfang (talk) 06:40, 12 April 2015 (UTC)
