Talk:Sound Tribe Sector 9

Wow, did somebody edit this to say "boner calendar" instead of "mayan calendar?" I don't know for sure that that is not some sort of term (but I'm fairly confident), so I won't edit it back. In any case, that doesn't seem right.

Um, "the band continues to ride their popularity"? WTF does that mean, to "ride" their popularity? Does their popularity look like a bitch? What? I said... does their popularity look like a bitch? No! Then why are they trying to ride it like one?

I agree, this article should be kept. For god's sake, I live in the middle of nowhere in Alabama, and I've heard of these people T-1 22:20, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

however, I do like to point out, the article needs some major cleanup, with citations and whatnot T-1 01:57, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

STS9 is absolutely relevant. This article should not be deleted. I'm new to editing Wikipedia, but I will definitely do my part to clean up this article to the correct standards. For starters, I've added at least one reference, and it will not be difficult to add lots more. Runawayjim8 16:37, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

Why on earth would this not be relevant? I'm removing the tag.

I added a bit about their emission offset effort for their upcoming tour. However, I don't know if I referenced it correctly. The article is from jambase, but I think they just reprinted it from a STS9 press-release. Can somebody with a little more knowledge on reliable sources help? Is this still considered a reliable source? I will do a bit of research myself...still learning!Runawayjim8 19:30, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

Hey, this is Felix, ive been a fan for a while. i just edited the concert section and threw in a new section describing their music. Ive tried to reference everything. Hopefully this will prove their notability!!!

Trevor here, new to discussion. I edited the concert and tours section, trying to make them a little more objective (less like 'advertising'). Still quite a few citations needed.

Notability
Hi, I've just added (back) the Notability tag for several reasons. First, I would suggest reading the guidelines so that this particular question can be addressed here on the talk page and put to rest.

Next, since the members of the band are living, we will need to pay even stricter attention to verifiabilty guidelines than normal. At present, very little of the information cites sources. As there are references to living individuals the Biographies of living persons guidelines apply. Thanks! Mdbrownmsw 15:35, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm very familiar with WP:MUSIC, thank you, and a regular participant in AfD discussions, and I really don't see how anyone could overlook the very obvious claims of regular nationwide touring, but if that's not enough for you (and it certainly should be), I've added a cite for their appearance on Billboard charts. Any more questions?  Xtifr tälk 10:25, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

-STS9 was discussed/played on NPR sunday night music show, their music was also feautred on CSI in I believe two episodes, if anyone has the time to reference that it would be great imo.-02 dec, 2006

-The songs were "Possibilities" and "Peoples (Cause and Effect Remix)" on CSI:NY episodes #219 and #220.

I found the date that sts9 was FEATURED on npr's "Echoes". sts9 was featured including an interview with "Guitarist Hunter Brown and bassist David Murphy" on May 22, 2005. link ->   I think this would make a great contribution, echoes in played on over 150 stations. I would add it myself but im not the best write, not sober either. SkimmerX 08:10, 8 April 2007 (UTC) Moogfest 2011 should be added to the festival list.

Proper Title?
in this article we have; inludes both can we please clear this up and use one version as the main 'offical' one. and only one version with the bracets.. ~bungalowbill 09/08
 * article is called Sound Tribe Sector 9
 * article leads with STS9
 * Sound Tribe Sector 9 (STS9)
 * STS9 (Sound Tribe Sector 9)

Bias
That history section reads like a resume and the line "STS9’s self-owned record label, 1320 Records was founded on the principles of collaboration, cooperation, and community. The goal is clear: bring the music to the people in the most conscious, unique innovative and savvy ways possible. By doing so, the distance lessens between artists and fans, putting the power back in the hands of those that make music and those that live for it." while noble, is pointless. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.88.77.4 (talk) 05:21, 18 April 2012 (UTC)
