Talk:Community band

message: I have deleted the following recently added text. If it is really appropriate, it should be added back in, but it looks promotional.
:"In addition, the Arkansas Valley Wind and Percussion Ensemble, in Lamar, Colorado, keeps a lending library of over 10,000 band charts, that they loan to members at no charge except for postage. Membership is either $25 a year or donate 10 charts to the library. Many community bands make use of this service, which is also open to schools."

message: I have removed the following section. Community bands are a worldwide phenomena, I cannot see the point of such a list. A list of countries that do not have community bands might be more interesting.
:Community bands around the world
:Other countries that have community bands include Austria, Brazil, Canada, Colombia, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Great Britain, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Latvia, Luxembourg, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Peru, South Africa, Slovenia, Switzerland, and Taiwan.

thread_title: Unhelpful section?

message: I've just started Franklin Silver Cornet Band, and I was wondering if any editors who have worked on this article would be interested in working on it. --Chris Griswold(☏) 16:00, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

message: There was an innapropriate, very overt plug for one NYC group that I have removed, and links to several others in the links section.  There are hundreds if not thousands of community band web pages out there and it doesn't make sense to plug three or four of them here.  Eventually there will be so many links that the article will be buried under the sheer weight of them.  The links section already includes several sites that provide links to these groups, leave it at that. 68.94.196.233 02:50, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Plugging individual bands 

message: wrote a master's thesis about this (not great) so I might be able to tighten up a few things.  too bad there's no reference written in this century!  we need to work on that - should be some dissertation at least if no books.  also, we should add something on Allentown (possibly first still in existence) and Adrian (oldest continuously active) and other notable historical things.
if anyone has specific info on Allentown or Adrian OR refutes these as firsts, let's get that information exchange going.  
personally - this is probably the most important musical ensemble in the country's history, merging popular and local with "cultivated" and national.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.248.167.87 (talk) 15:16, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
