Dave Matthews? Sheryl Crow?[edit]

The list of bands from or associated with Colorado is ridiculous. Many of the artists listed here may have visited Colorado once or released a "Live at Red Rocks" album, but that doesn't mean they are from Colorado. This is a giant mess.76.224.82.210 01:49, 23 August 2007 (UTC)Drew[reply]

Agree with other comment[edit]

I agree with the other comment on this page about the lists of artists associated with Colorado. That list should be bands that are local to Colorado, or have a long history in Colorado).

I tried to add a couple of the bigger local bands yesterday, but it seems that someone else has already deleted them. But somehow bands like Sheryl Crow and Bob Seger are ok on there. But apparently locals aren't "notable" enough even though they do have something to do with Colorado.

Ok, got that out :-). I feel better

Another so called "Colorado Band"???[edit]

Why is the British band Soft Machine listed there, even with a copy of their first album's cover? I have removed the image in the process of providing a fair use rationale for Image:The_Soft_Machine-album.jpg BNutzer (talk) 23:23, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:FarewellAndromeda.jpg[edit]

Image:FarewellAndromeda.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Citations and sources are needed[edit]

Please be sure that all additions to the Music of Colorado article are verifiable. Any new items added to the article should have inline citations for each claim made. As a courtesy to editors who may have added unsourced claims previously, before Wikipedia citation policy is what it is today, many of the existing unsourced claims have been tagged {{citation needed}} to allow some time for sources to be added. N2e (talk) 17:11, 26 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Realistically, if we are going to claim a venue for music, it will need to be sourced to establish whatever claims are made, including existence of the venue, AND notability will need to be established by some verifiable citation. Wikipedia is not an advertising listing for every bar that occasionally has a garage band or singer/songwriter playing on a weekend night. N2e (talk) 04:04, 3 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Zoon Politikon[edit]

Hello, I think you should add Zoon Politikon as a Denver, Colorado band (indie). Zoon Politikon played in Denver from 1992 through 1998, and released Krap Factory (Cassette EP), Flesh Blanket (CD), and Popcycleschtick (EP). Zoon Politikon was formed at the original "Classroom" venue, where Kyle Carstens (Drummer) lived. Members included Pat Donovan (Original member, guitar, vocals), Joel Dallenbach (Bass on Krap Factory) and Carol Kilgore (bass on Flesh Blanket and Popcycleschtick). Here are a couple of reference pages.
