Which City?
I don't believe Quietdrive is actually from "Minneapolis" per se as none of the members I believe grew up in the city limits. Their bands local following started in the west suburbs too. I think it should be Hopkins or Minnetonka, one or both. I think Wikipedians are smarter than the average joe and recognize the differences within a metropolitan area. For example the band No Doubt really came from Orange County suburbs but if you were to say they came out of Los Angeles then a lot of people would turn their heads because L.A. proper is very different from Orange County. Minneapolis is quite distinct on its own terms and many of the music venues and clubs that Quietdrive played were in various towns. Similarly the local band Dropping Daylight is from Apple Valley (about the same distance as Hopkins) and had their big following in the south suburbs and actually rarely played any Minneapolis shows. Not to take the credit away from the city which birthed everything here but it's not entirely correct and Wikipedia is a little bit more intelligent than a CD promo.

-- Davumaya:  No Doubt is from Annaheim-ish in the coutny of Orange, not the county of Los Angeles. THAT is why they don't claim LA. -- —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.163.237.37 (talk) 19:54, 24 October 2009 (UTC)


 * Actually the band members grew up in Robbinsdale, Plymouth, Bloomington, Crystal, and Sioux Falls, SD respectively. No one ever lived in either Minnetonka or Hopkins.  Also, there are very few venues to play in those suburban areas.  The band claims Minneapolis because that's where they have rehearsed, performed, and recorded since their formation.  They all live there now. Also, no one really cares and neither should you! -LD —Preceding unsigned comment added by LucasD612 (talk • contribs) 19:58, November 22, 2007


 * That isn't very kind. JazzlineB (talk) 19:58, 22 November 2007 (UTC)


 * They all currently reside in the Minneapolis area, this is why they are from Minneapolis.: —Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.188.189.65 (talk) 20:56, 10 September 2009 (UTC)

Singles
But I was wondering if anyone could confirm that the two singles listed are he only ones? On their MySpace, their are four songs: Take A Drink, Time After Time, Rise From The Ashes and Maybe Misery. JazzlineB (talk) 19:58, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

"Time After Time" technically was their only single from that album, according to an Absolutepunk.net interview with the band.68.190.114.32 (talk) 21:51, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. You know, there is a music video for "Rise from the Ashes" but not for "Time after Time" so I'm not sure. JazzlineB (talk) 17:14, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

There might be a distinction then. "Time After Time" was the radio single and it was the label's decision to put it out. "Rise From The Ashes" was the band's choice originally, plus it was featured in NHL 2007 so that might've pressed them to release a video. The interview I read was questioning whether or not they would release "Rise From The Ashes" as the next single and asked the band why that was not their first instead of the cover. The band maintained it was the label's decision and instead of releasing a second single, they would focus on a new record instead: http://www.absolutepunk.net/showthread.php?p=8117978 68.190.114.32 (talk) 04:03, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Notability?
The band is on Epic Records. Had a charted single as well as a single in EA Sport's NHL game and appeared on numerous large platform concerts such as Bamboozle. How are they not notable? 68.190.114.32 (talk) 21:48, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Agreed. They are very notable, have appeared in large concerts, etc. In saying that, I contest the tag to be removed. Qsung (talk) 10:25, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Also Agreed. As per 68.190.114.32. USS Stingray (talk) 05:46, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I have sent a request to the original tagger User:Optigan13 to reconsider..:DavuMaya:. 23:16, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

When I tagged the article it had no valid sources, general notability requires at least two. The article now has two interviews, so I've removed the tags. -Optigan13 (talk) 05:46, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
