Talk:Brian Head Welch (musician)

Reason for move
I have audio proof that Brian Welch's solo project is actually called "Brian Head Welch." He was on the radio today, which streamed live to the internet, so I recorded it, and he said he wanted to be "Head," but he was forced to be "Brian Head Welch." Also, if you look on Amazon listings and even iTunes, it says "Artist: Brian Head Welch," which puts us in an awkward position. There's Brian Welch, the person, and there's also Brian Head Welch, the solo project. We obviously can't simply title it Head, as that would be inaccurate. Should we just keep it to how I moved it? Please make suggestions, people, and if anyone wants to hear the audio where he said that, I'll provide it. dude527 (talk) 22:34, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

Proposed move
I plan to move this page to "Brian Head Welch (musician)," or "Brian Head Welch (solo artist)." My reason is that this project is not a "band." Welch has clearly exemplified this a solo project, and not a band. I mean, it's in his name, and all of the interviews I see don't say "We're talking to frontman and guitarist from the band Brian Head Welch," but rather, they say "We're talking to Brian Head Welch, who has now gone solo, and his debut album is dropping this September." The official website even says "...currently in Phoenix in the recording studio with engineer Ralph Patlan, finishing up the final mixes for his debut solo album..." Another thing we could do, is to merge the article about the person, and the musician (who is the same person). But the whole article is in the context of displaying this supposed "band" as one person.

If anybody has any objections, please post here. But if not, I'm going to move this page tomorrow and set the current article as a redirect. dude527 (talk) 19:28, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

Duplicate - merge ?
Err, no offense, but this article is about the same person as the Brian Welch article. Since I believe WP guidelines prefer names without qualifications where possible, I'm suggesting this page be merged into the Brian Welch article, and this article changed to a redirect. Feel free to disagree if there's something I've overlooked as to why this is a bad idea... :-)CultureDrone (talk) 08:56, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Incidentally, I appreciate that a biographical article about Brian Welch the person may technically be different to a music project, but the two can be combined. It's just a thought - no need to shout :-) CultureDrone (talk) 09:03, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I suggested that above, and nobody has opposed it. Go for it, if you'd like. dude527 (talk) 09:20, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Is anybody going to merge this??? The Guy complain edits 20:52, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
