Talk:Lincoln (Band)

From This Might Be A Wiki
Revision as of 12:31, 27 June 2012 by 99.129.145.82 (talk) (Fantastic album: new section)

Any reviews of this, any fans out there?

You know, I wouldn't mind hearing a review as well. I remember seeing them open for TMBG in 98, and I don't really remember them being anything special- kind of boring in fact. Now that I know Dans Miller and Weinkauf are in the band I'd be interested in giving them another chance with a more critical ear! --Oddjob 13:51, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

I love this CD

Me and my brother got a chance to see them durring a WARPED tour and we purchased the CD we liked them so much. I think it may have been 97 or 98 cant remember but I listen to it every now and then and it makes me smile.

Making an album/song pages for the band?

I know neither of the Johns were in the band, but I feel it'd fit well with the wiki. I'd like to see lyrics (I know they're out there already)/guitar tabs/interpretations/trivia on the songs. I'll help create a majority of the pages if this can get approved. -- Jason DeLima - ! - 23:51, 15 May 2010 (UTC)

Any admins wish to respond to this? -- Jason DeLima - ! - 22:03, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
I'm not an admin, but I think it's a great idea. -Apollo. 22:22, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
I guess… (I'm not an admin either. Apparently I'm an unofficial backup backup admin, or something along those lines) Certainly album pages, maybe song pages. Would we include these songs in song themes? -- DidgeGuy (आ ज) 22:33, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
i had a quick discussion with brad about this a number of months ago, he recommended against it for a couple of reasons, one of which is that of demarcation; right now our policy is to only include songs that one of the johns has performed on. if we include the lincoln stuff (which i don't think is a bad idea in and of itself), it opens up the door for a flood of things that may or may not be worthy of inclusion, which i think would lead to a difficult and conclusionless debate. that's my take on it, at least. --ant 22:37, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
Yeah, true. If a song doesn't really have much to do with TMBG, (not performed with them, not partly written by them, etc.) it shouldn't go on the wiki. ?:-) We have an answer from an admin now! -- Buzzmusic100 ("Keep your voice down...")
I don't think an album page would hurt, right? I mean, seeing as it's significantly related to TMBG in more than one way...? And it's only one. I'm not trying to persuade anyone here, just asking for the sake of asking. -Apollo. 22:54, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
i was just thinking about that... it's not too bad an idea. --ant 22:56, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
Yeah, as I said, albums, yes, songs, probably not. -- DidgeGuy (आ ज) 23:00, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
Ok, good. :^) -- Buzzmusic100 ("Keep your voice down...")

Fantastic album

Top 5 Desert Island album kind of good...some people have said they didn't like this album at first but it grew on them. I might have fit into that category, I can't really remember it has been so long (15 years? Man, I am aging).
