Talk:Ted Leo and the Pharmacists

message: I thought Ted Leo was from Bloomfield, New Jersey, though I may be wrong.
:He's certainly from Jersey, but I think the band itself formed in DC. I think Chisel was the same way. --Rozhestvensky
::Chisel started at the University of Notre Dame in 1990, but the band moved to Washington DC around 1993 or so.  See my article on Chisel (band).  Does anyone know how to link it to the Ted Leo entry without getting a woodworking tool?
:::To create a wikilink like that you can add a | (commonly called a pipe) like this: Chisel. That should create a link that looks like this: Chisel. --NormanEinstein 22:32, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Ted was from Bloomfield

message: Should this article be under Ted Leo and the Pharmacists or some other variant like Ted Leo & The Pharmacists or Ted Leo/Pharmacists or Ted Leo + Pharmacists?  I've seen all of those variants and I was wondering which was official.  The official website says Ted Leo + Pharmacists, but that might just be a stylistic thing. NoIdeaNick 01:43, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The main variants (the ones likely to be used as search terms) should probably be redirects.  I've done the one that you found on their website. --Mel Etitis  (Μελ Ετητης) 10:32, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd say the title should be written as "Ted Leo/Pharmacists (Spoken as Ted Leo and the Pharmacists)"; It's how every album is credited. TheDavesr 00:02, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: That's incorrect. When Ted Leo + Pharmacists play a show, they have, in their rider, that they should be advertised as "Ted Leo + Pharmacists", and nothing else. (I have their contract to play at my school in front of me) Tmcw 23:44, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

message: I noticed that someone made a change to add Ted Leo's birthday here. Then it was removed because it "is already on his page." However, I do not believe there is a Ted Leo page--it's just a redirect to this page. If there is, then this article does not link to it. --Rolando 16:13, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I was the one that removed the addition of Ted Leo's birthday and birthplace recently. I didn't realize that Ted Leo was a redirect to this article; I must have been thinking of something else. Anyway... there should definitely be a separate Ted Leo article. --NormanEinstein 16:50, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Added (Ted Leo) in incredibly stubby fashion. This article probably needs to be cleaned up in order to reflect that there is now a separate page for the bandleader. --Rolando 12:19, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Separate Teddy Leo article?

message: As much as I love Ted and the Pharmacists, I think it's pretty obvious that statements like
The result was an uneven and at times unlistenable record with some high points such as "The 'Nice People' Argument", "Set You Free", "Friends and Bands" and "(None)"
especially through excellent covers.
and
The group's fourth album, Living with the Living, was released on March 20, 2007. The album was a sprawling expansion of their past sound, clocking in at one hour. Many songs were easily recognizable, politically charged, Ted Leo punk ("Sons of Cain", "Army Bound", "The World Stops Turning", "CIA"), but there were also notable departures from this style. Ted stepped into Dismemberment Plan-influnced hardcore with "Bomb.Repeat.Bomb.", had an interlude worthy of a musical with "Annunciation Day/Born on Christmas Day" and even threw in a power balled with "The Toro and the Toreador". Ted also revisted old influences, "Bottle of Buckie" is his best shot at Celtic balladry since "Timorous Me" and his love of both reggae and dub seen in Tej Leo shine through in "The Unwanted Things". Besides being easily his most sonically varied album since The Tryanny of Distance, Ted also made it his most personal and romantic. Songs like "Who Do You Love?", "Colleen", "Bottle of Buckie", "La Costa Brava" and "Some Beginner's Mind" all tackle personal subjects, including love within a context of politcal strife.
violate the neutrality policy pretty flagrantly.  They need to be revised to illustrate that they show critical opinion and then cited, and if no citations can be found, deleted entirely. --Mattiez666 (talk • contribs) 06:42, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

message: Pretty much every release ever gets licensed to other countries. Not sure why the Brutalist Bricks getting a spanish release warrants a separate line item in his discography. If anything that should only be on The Brutalist Brick's own article.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wood and iron (talk • contribs) 13:05, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
