coal miner?
Paragraph 1: "He is the first in his entire family to not be a coal miner." Is this right? it sounds a bit funny to me, but it has been there since 00:27, 21 February 2007. 84.69.112.123 16:49, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

I believe this came from an NPR interview on Fresh Air in 1998. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rswiggs1 (talk • contribs) 20:46, 23 March 2016 (UTC)

overly graphic description of death
hey there, not sure if there is a wikipedia policy on this or not, but I think the description of his death is a bit graphic and voyeuristic, wouldn't it be more appropriate to state something like 'shot self with shotgun and died a few hours later' - I don't think we need to know in great detail about all the gory details.

I agree, i wonder who wrote it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.194.49.209 (talk) 13:59, 7 March 2010 (UTC)

Dancing Hoods
The first paragraph of the Dancing Hoods section states that The Replacements and The Del Fuegos were fans of Dancing Hoods. The cited link/footnote, the Allmusic biography page, does NOT support this statement. The Allmusic page for Dancing Hoods says FANS of The Replacements and The Del Fuegos were fans of Dancing Hoods.
