Talk:Dream Street

Shouldn't this one be separated into two articles since they have nothing to do with each other? Alensha 17:23, 8 Apr 2005 (UTC)

The tone of this article is definitely very informal. Could somebody familiar with the group fix it up a bit? Dozla 21:17, 15 Jul 2008

Unsourced ridiculousness
"In early 2002, the band went through a hard time in which they sued their managers. It is rumored that Baldonieri and Lukow mailed porn to the boys houses and tried to get them to have sex with random girls. Also, the managers made drugs and alcohol easily accessible to the underage teens. At first all of the boys were suing the managers, but Trousdale later decided to stay with the managers, resulting in a feud with the other boys. The boys didn't really hide their disagreement with his decision back in 2002. At the end of the lawsuit, the managers and Trousdale won."

I suppose this could in some way be reasonable, but I removed it until it gets sourced. 66.162.196.117 (talk) 16:13, 25 July 2008 (UTC)

Well, since some of it is easily sourced (or at least, it's possible to see the relationship between the claim and the sourced material) let's break it up and see what we can find. Here's a start:

Sources: BILLBOARD: http://www.billboard.com/bbcom/esearch/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1472313


 * "In early 2002, the band went through a hard time in which they sued their managers."
 * BILLBOARD, 1st para, except that it was the parents of the band members rather than the band members themselves.


 * "It is rumored that Baldonieri and Lukow mailed porn to the boys houses ..."
 * Perhaps this is a distortion of BILLBOARD, 4th para, where porn was allegedly e-mailed to the boys (by a band investor who was not Baldonieri/Lukow)


 * "... and tried to get them to have sex with random girls."
 * BILLBOARD, 4th para


 * "Also, the managers made drugs and alcohol easily accessible to the underage teens."
 * The alcohol part: BILLBOARD, 4th para


 * "At first all of the boys were suing the managers ..."


 * "... but Trousdale later decided to stay with the managers ..."


 * "... resulting in a feud with the other boys."


 * "... The boys didn't really hide their disagreement with his decision back in 2002."


 * "... At the end of the lawsuit, the managers and Trousdale won."

Also, I wonder if the information from this second Billboard article should be incorporated. It's not clear whether the "new" Dream Street ever came together or how far it went but surely it's part of the complete story. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.78.13.238 (talk) 19:50, 27 November 2008 (UTC)

Aftermath of Dream Street.
I understand that they broke up but what are they doing in there solo life? That part would be worth expanding. Johnnyauau2000 (talk) 03:05, 24 February 2009 (UTC)
