Do we really need to list every Simon & Garfunkel concert under "events"? The first one with a band, sure, but I don't see the need to list every concert that occurred in 1969... that would be silly. Tokerboy

Under births: Marc Antony is listed, but according to his page he is actually born in 1968.

albums released - alphabetical order

Dear 60s and 70s music fans out there in wikiland (or is that wikispace?)

For want of an easier way of doing things, and following a question raised on another talk page, I am in the process of putting the albums released sections of the 60s and 70s in music pages into alphabetical order.

Whilst I realise this may not be the best or most popular way of listing stuff, I reached the conclusion that other than going directly to an artist's article page, it was probably the most efficient/effective way to find that album that we want to check up on and compare it to its contemporaries. By way of example, if we were to put the following album in artist name order:

  • Diana Ross Presents the Jackson 5 - Jackson 5

we would [probably] have to include it twice on the same list: once under each of the named artists, whereas if we list it alphabetically there's no possible confusion(?).

I'd appreciate some feedback on this, and in the hope that y'all agree with me (as you can imagine this is taking up quite a bit of my wikitime), I'm posting this note on all the relevant discussion pages. Please bear in mind I am only suggesting this for the albums released sections and NOT for any other kind of list. Thanx. 83.180.133.119 22:59, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

the family / ten years after concert

I attended the Family/Ten Years After concert mentioned here, and I recall the incident a little bit differently. Family was indeed the target of boos and catcalls, from a crowd that had come to see Ten Years After, and weren't enjoying Family's style of music. The lead singer did throw something, but I remember it as being a drink cup, and it was thrown into the audience, not towards Bill Graham. Graham was angry about it, but I think it was because he regarded the action as unprofessional, not because he was in danger of being hit by anything. You could make the argument that he was somewhat to blame, for putting together a bill that included two acts whose styles were totally incompatible. 64.95.16.10 (talk) 16:15, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
