[edit]

It says Torquil Campbell has contributed to Broken Social Scene, but to the best of my knowledge, only Evan (playing bass and trombone) and Amy (vocals are the only Stars members who have contributed to their recorded work. I don't doubt that at sometime Torquil may have helped them play live (as have half of Canada), but is he credited or mentioned somewhere as being a "member" of Broken Social Scene?

  • Look at the credits for the new album. He is mentioned as a member of Broken Social Scene.

Solo Albums

[edit]

Old: All of its members, except for founders Kevin Drew and Brendan Canning and drummer Justin Peroff, currently play in various other groups and solo projects, mainly based around the city of Toronto.

New: All of its members currently play in various other groups and solo projects, mainly based around the city of Toronto. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.22.1.169 (talk) 04:27, 2 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The New Pornographers

[edit]

Interesting to note, BSS is listed as a Canadian Indie Supergroup like The New Pornographers. Perhaps a new article is in order?

Picture with Names

[edit]

I think that we need a picture at the top of the article that has captions with the members names listed underneath. DeadDisco

Touring photo

[edit]

Looking at the photo of the band playing live, it's really dark and doesn't really show how huge the band is either. I have a much nicer photo at flickr. It was taken by me and I'm happy to have it used here. It shows 7 band members clearly with a further 2 in the background. aLii 19:32, 8 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I like it, and it would be easy to do a L to R member ID. Are you willing to license it under GFDL or Creative Commons? See Wikipedia:Uploading images. --Dhartung | Talk 22:39, 8 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, Creative Commons, sure :) aLii 23:44, 8 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The End of BSS

[edit]

I have a horrible english to include this:

Bad, very bad news. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 193.144.12.132 (talk • contribs) .

Hi, sorry about your issues with English. The band has been emphatic that this is a "temporary extended hiatus", meaning a break. It's a "supergroup" so most of the band have other projects already and they need to pay attention to those for a while. So relax! Probably in 2007 or so they will start working together again. Meanwhile you can get new music from Stars or Feist or Apostle of Hustle or Metric.... so it's not so bad. --Dhartung | Talk 19:09, 4 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I also believe they will not break up. Even on the slight chance that they do break up, they will have amassed a lot of material that can release. I hope. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Pragmatic.fool (talk • contribs) 06:40, 30 January 2007 (UTC).[reply]

This article is one of thousands on Wikipedia that have a link to YouTube in it. Based on the External links policy, most of these should probably be removed. I'm putting this message on the talk page, to request the regular editors take a look at the link and make sure it doesn't violate policy. In short: 1. 99% of the time YouTube should not be used as a source. 2. We must not link to material violating someone's copyright. If you are not sure whether the link on this article should be removed or if you would like to help spread this message, contact us on User talk:J.smith/YouTube Linklist. Thanks, ---J.S (t|c) 00:58, 12 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Is this still true? I don't see one. Also, what would be the Wikipedia stance on linking to lala music (licensed to play once for free)?

Adam Marvy

[edit]

In addition to initially tour managing, Adam Marvy performed, mainly trumpet, for most of the last two years with BSS. He is pictured to Lisa's right in the article's accompanying photo.Satchie 23:38, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

new main picture needed now now now.

[edit]

what the hell is the big idea, having a picture that small. i'm sure there's a higher res one somewhere on the gosh darned internet.

that is seriously like the dumbest thing i have ever seen on wikipedia. someone get a bigger picture asap plox t hx. aeymxq 22:12, 3 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

After several Flickr searches, the current one (Broken_Social_Scene.jpg) was the best I could find. Most pictures either only had 1-2 band members, or had an audience member's body in the way. If anybody has anything better, I'm not very attached to this one. --Padraic 20:23, 27 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Ok I've uploaded my photo (mentioned above). I edited it first, cropped it and changed the colour balance somewhat. I think it'd be good if someone could write a left-to-right detail of who is who on the image page though. Unfortunately I don't know enough about the band. aLii 10:44, 28 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'd say it's superior to what you've got, but I guess both could be used. More pictures is generally better. aLii 10:51, 28 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
That works for me - I only went photo-hunting because I didn't think you were going to release that photo. Padraic 19:44, 28 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I'm trying to find photos for most the BSS members (Brendan Canning, Lisa Lobsinger, Kevin Drew, etc) - feel free to chime in. Padraic 19:55, 28 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Well that's GDFL now, so feel free to cut it up to suit your needs. aLii 01:53, 29 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Cdcover bss free 7-4.jpg

[edit]

Image:Cdcover bss free 7-4.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 Wikipedia articles 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 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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 05:34, 2 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Bill Priddle

[edit]

Wouldn't he be part of BSS once again now that hes touring with them, its just my own opinion... he left the band after You Forgot it in People then returned for Spirit If...

[edit]

The article says, BSS are related to Kevin Brereton (aka K-Os), but does not explain in which way. The article on K-Os itself does not say anything about him beeing related to BSS. Their relation should wether be explained or kicked out, because in this form it does not provide any worthy information.


"Broken Social Scene released their third full-length, Broken Social Scene on October 4, 2005, with new contributors including k-os, Jason Tait and Murray Lightburn." This quite much explains their relationship.--Wiesengrund 08:55, 4 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Related Acts - BSS Presents

[edit]

I think it bears mentioning that "Broken Social Scene Presents: Kevin Drew / Brendan Canning" are not, in fact, "related acts". These are simply the monikers used on two Broken Social Scene albums featuring entirely songs written by the person named, but arranged and played by BSS' usual suspects. I'd suggest those two lines be removed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.137.21.207 (talk) 15:49, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

2009 Touring Lineup

[edit]

The 2009 touring lineup includes Emily Haines, James Shaw, Amy Millan, Evan Cranley, Jason Collett, Julie Penner etc. A lot of these people only showed up to play the Harbourfront show and aren't touring with Broken Social Scene regularly, and thus I believe some of the names should be removed. I'm specifically referring to Haines, Shaw, Millan, and Cranley. I am unsure if Collett and Penner are still playing with them.64.136.113.67 (talk) 17:41, 16 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

the band refuses the term supergroup

[edit]

who cares? should this really be in the opening paragraph? it doesn't really say anything about anything. --71.203.34.148 (talk) 02:20, 17 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Live at Third Man Records

[edit]

Hi, I'm not a Wiki expert at all so I didn't wanna just go ahead and add it, but I can't seem to find any mention in this article about their 5-song EP Live from Third Man Records from 2020. Here's the link with info and I've copied the tracklist below:

1. "Cause = Time - Live" 2. "Stay Happy - Live" 3. "Superconnected - Live" 4. "Gonna Get Better - Live" 5. "It's All Gonna Break - Live" — Preceding unsigned comment added by 32.208.209.149 (talk) 18:30, 23 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

2005 lineup

[edit]

This might be a "without prior announcement resuming their role" thing, but the article discusses Amy Millan playing with the band from 2001-2004, and also in 2006 (and various subsequent tours), to the side of which is a picture of the group from 2005 in Chicago... with Millan on lead vocals. I'm not going to add her to the 2005 lineup without a source -- mind you, this entire section is unsourced -- but maybe even more caveats need to be added. If all else fails, I'll at least add her name to the caption. 109.255.211.6 (talk) 23:10, 15 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
