[edit] Copy vio
I listed this page as a copyvio from the All Music Guide. The AMG Terms of Service specifically states
- You may not, for example, republish any portion of the Material on any Internet, Intranet or extranet site or incorporate the Material in any database, compilation, archive or cache.
Assuming we create a real article here (which would be reasonable, given that Train is a fairly well-known band), we may link to AMG, but we may not republish their text without written permission. --AHM 21:51, 22 Sep 2004 (UTC)
[edit] New Stub Created
A new non-plagurized article has been posted. Please replace this article with the temporary one that has been posted.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Train_%28band%29/Temp
- I disagree that the /Temp article is not plagiarism, as it still uses sentences pulled directly from AllMusic (without citation no less), but I appreciate your attempt to rectify the copyvio situation. I've rewritten the stub, adding lists of band member and discography info, as well as a sentence about their two most successful songs. If this article is going to be anything more than a stub, someone with more knowledge of the band's history and style needs to contribute. --AHM 21:31, 23 Sep 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Hey
I have added an infox with a promo photo, I have also added a singles list that has all the singles and year of release. If anyone could help with adding peak billboard positions to the singles, that would be great.
- Done. 68.79.27.232 04:23, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Post-Rock?
Can Train be considered post-rock? I'm adding it to the infobox because everything I've read about post-rock seems to put them in that genre, but if someone disagrees feel free to remove it.
- From the Post-rock page:
- "Post-rock is a music genre characterized by nontraditional use of instruments and high musical density".
- Train uses instruments pretty darn traditionally. Some Post-rock acts are Sigur Rós and Godspeed You! Black Emperor as a comparison. Since you've given permission to remove the classification if someone saw fit, I have done just that. --Dkordik 11:37, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
- wtf is post rock? what is that shit there is no fucking post rock in my eyes. rock is rock it can never be post....now sub genres in my opinion can be post but not a solid main genre like that.......sry for being so brash but i hate that...........and may i please put pop rock in...............a pop band sounds so dumb.....please....im gonna change it if you have a problem change it back. --76.113.62.128 (talk) 21:57, 25 January 2011 (UTC)
[edit] Patrick hitting on Spears
I'm going to re-add the joke. I've found a source : http://www.livedaily.com/reviews/Live_Review_Train_at_the_Celebrity_Theatre_in_Phoenix-6741.html Gaijin42 13:17, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Taste of Chicago
Train will be preforming at Taste of Chicago AND ADMISSION IS FREE!!! They will start at 5:30.
[edit] Repetition in the History section
There are several sentences that repeat information. Specifically, Drops of Jupiter is mentioned as being a hit on the Billboard list twice in subsequent paragraphs. Later For Me, It's You is mentioned as their fourth studio album twice in subsequent paragraphs.
Unless anyone has any objections in the next couple of days, I'd like to tighten this up. --Javafreek 19:14, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Stoned Immaculate
Train contributed an excellent cover of "Light My Fire" to Stoned Immaculate but I'm not sure what category it should be in. Jon Thompson (talk) 18:48, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
[edit] Template
I created a template for Train. Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated. Free (talk) (HRWiki) 23:40, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
[edit] A New Page for Train Discography?
The Train discography, being on the main Train page, is making the page a little long. I think we should make a seperate page for Train's discography. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mackerni888 (talk • contribs) 00:45, 18 March 2010 (UTC)
I just went ahead and made a separate page for Train's discography. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mackerni888 (talk • contribs) 04:57, 18 March 2010 (UTC)
