Talk:Rare Earth (band)

History Updated
History updated per the bands official website. Please do not change however you are welcome to insert proper links and citations as needed. 69.133.89.131 (talk) 04:15, 25 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Writing and adding a properly sourced history would be a wonderful thing, but what you've done is completely copied and pasted the history section from the band's website, which is completely unacceptable and a copyright violation. It is being removed and I urge you to review WP:Copyright and WP:REF for particulars. Wildhartlivie (talk) 12:43, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

Problematic sentences
These two sentences have problems: "It appeared in the final episode of the TV show Six Feet Under and has also been prominently featured in the movies Arthur, Three Kings, A Knight's Tale and Land of the Lost, as well as in the trailer for the movie Tropic Thunder and in the . 'The Expendables 2' Theme Song and in the end credits music in episode 24 ("One Day in the Valley") of Entourage."

You will notice the first sentence is unresolved and the second sentence has no verb and is thus incomplete. I was not sure how to do the edit as I would be assuming a bit too much and changing the information presented - perhaps to the point of rendering it to be inaccurate. If the original editor could jump in and clear this up it would be appreciated. Thanks!THX1136 (talk) 15:43, 14 October 2014 (UTC)

"The last remaining member of the original line-up"
I made wrong klick and send half of the summary.

Peter Hoorelbeke and Rod Richards from the original line-up are still alive.--Ovaron (talk) 20:08, 12 December 2021 (UTC)


 * I think you're right. The original source stated that he was "the last remaining member of the original lineup to continue to perform with the band...".  So, my mistake.  Ghmyrtle (talk) 20:12, 12 December 2021 (UTC)

"Final" line-up
Recent edits here and here have claimed to be from the "owner" of the band name, and effectively state that the band no longer exists following the death of Gil Bridges. I'm inclined to accept them in good faith (subject to correcting the format errors, which I've started to do), but if anyone has any comments, this is the place to add them.

Blank and redirect
Hi, I've blanked and redirected "Rarearth (album)" (Permalink before blank) to the band's page (this article) per a lack of notability. No content has been merged.  Just ' i ' yaya  10:59, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
