Dave Peabody
A word to the wise, Eric, if I may be so bold. Your recent edits to this article have been reverted for several reasons. Firstly, Verifiability states that "Other people have to be able to check that you didn't just make things up. This means that all quotations and any material challenged or likely to be challenged must be attributed to a reliable, published source using an inline citation". Secondly in your edits you have removed some of these citations, which is considered a form of vandalism. Thirdly, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. It operates to different, and more correct styles of wording and phrasing, that are considerably different to those found in, say, fan sites or on Facebook. For one example, "There is no way he is sitting still and Dave Peabody will certainly make us happy with beautiful music in the future" is neither encyclopedic, nor neutral in tone.

Can I suggest you take time out to read Five pillars to give you some basic editing tips, or read an article such as Bob Dylan. It is one of several music related featured articles (the best that Wikipedia currently has to offer), and may proffer you with some ideas as to what is required.

Wikipedia certainly is not a publication of editor's own personal thoughts - see What Wikipedia is not.

Thanks,
