Talk:The Heart of Rock & Roll

Removal of dubious claims
I removed: The lyrics part now sung as "The heart of rock and roll is still beating" was originally going to be "The heart of rock and roll is in Cleveland," in honor of a great concert the band had played in the city. The intro to the song is a piano being played backwards. because they are referenced from another wiki, that claims to be official from the band. also "The intro to the song is a piano being played backwards" is pure invention of that wiki, the intro of the song is a the playing on tom and bass drums to simulate a heartbeat; to verify the false claim it's only necessary to see the videos of the song (live and official), tom drums and bass drum are the heartbeat at the beginning of the song.--201.247.28.6 (talk) 04:17, 23 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Weren't these claims backed by references to the bands official newsletter?! 24.191.186.13 (talk) 17:17, 23 December 2009 (UTC)

HLNwiki
This source is a wiki, which generally indicates it is user generated content. The original site is down, most recently archived here. Actually, that's an archive of the site's "About" page, which says nothing. In fact, there is nothing to indicate who wrote this.

Is it "official"? It doesn't say. In the FAQ we have "Is there a fan club for HLN? Yes, it's called NewsLine II and is currently being incorporated into this website." This indicates that wiki, whatever it may be, is associated with a fan club. It does not follow, however, that this fan club is a) "official" or b) that the associated newsletter is reliable.

There was some discussion of this before and one item from that source was removed in June 2009. Other trivia citing the same source remained and the claim removed was restored 6 months later by an IP claiming this is "the official newsletter".

With nothing to support the claim that this source is reliable, I am removing it and all of the trivia attributed to it. If anyone can show the source is reliable, I'm all ears. - Sum mer PhD v2.0 18:11, 21 January 2017 (UTC)
 * It is (well WAS) their official newsletter but it's honestly gonna be near impossible to find any way of verifying that for the sake of this wiki's standards. 98.220.44.26 (talk) 17:00, 9 January 2019 (UTC)
