Content location[edit]

Most of what's here should be moved to The Lemonheads, leaving this article to concentrate on Dando's misadventures, solo projects and sundry other musical contributions.--Adoorajar 6 July 2005 20:54 (UTC)

Article Rating[edit]

Good timeline, but needs sources and more encyclopedic writing. Uncertain whether some linked material violates copyright. Rated B-class. DeSales 23:18, 23 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Is he gay or bisexual?[edit]

The lyrics to songs like "Frank Mills" and "Big Gay Heart" definitely suggest so. Also this.--h i s ^{s p a c e} _{r e s e a r c h} 20:57, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

other collaborations[edit]

I moved the following collaborations to here. They can be moved back into the main article once properly referenced and notable:

Dando sings back-up on Mary Lorson's/Saint's Low's 2002 release Tricks for Dawn on the song "Long Way Down."
Most recently Dando recorded a cover of a "Lovely NY" produced and mixed by Alex Elena for the forthcoming record "Tarka and Friends"

Drug Problems[edit]

Why has this page been cleansed of any mention of his drug problems? Other pages, such as the Lemonheads page mention it extensively. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2607:FB90:821:6DC9:0:45:CCB:9401 (talk) 10:15, 22 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

==Downgrading to Start-class, 26 February 2007==

Article needs more content, cited sources, editing for readabiliy, and a better discography to be considered B-class or higher. - cgilbert^{(talk|contribs)} 00:03, 27 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Heritage[edit]

To add to this article: his heritage/ancestry. Is he Italian American? 173.88.246.138 (talk) 10:01, 3 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
