 * Symbol question.svg This article is new enough (created in main space on 20 June 2016, nominated 24 June), long enough (c. 2000 words), neutrally worded, and with inline citations. The hook is short enough (118 characters), correctly formatted, interesting, and cited inline. AGF for offline source. Just waiting for the QPQ to be completed.
 * One random thing, what does "remotes" in "Over his career, King believed his band to have broadcast more than 5000 remotes" mean? Its not linked or explained. It may be because I'm British (and therefore a remote is the control for a TV), but do you mean Big band remote? Gaia Octavia AgrippaTalk 00:46, 26 June 2016 (UTC)
 * You are correct, and the average American wouldn't know the term any better than the British. or the Estonian, for that matter.  But if you collect Electrical transcription of course you'd know what this means!  How accidentally obnoxious of me.  I have fixed, and thank you.   78.26  (spin me / revolutions) 11:57, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
