I have classified this as a start following the addition of references. Capitalistroadster 04:12, 20 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Band

Given that most musical groups are referred to casually as "the band," a reader of this article not knowing that an actual group used the name "The Band" might not understand what this is referring to. Rather than wiki-linking every refernce to "The Band" to clear this up, it seems to me that capitalizing the "T" in "The" would help clarify the situation. I don't believe I am the first person to have done this. If you do insist on making the "T" lowercase, consider wiki-linking each reference to "The Band" as it otherwise easy to confuse The Band with any subsequent musical collective which had Richard Bell as a member.
