confirm

Hi there, can someone who own the records maybe confirm the release years of Survivor and Premonition? [1] says 1979 and 1980 while [2] mentions 1980 and 1981.

Same goes for the current band members. While [3] only has three members, this article says that they're currently five. Also the article says (1988), Ellis and Droubay decided to leave the band although he is called one of the current members further down. Any clues?

Best regards, --Flominator 10:54, 13 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The link to the "Cobra" band page under the "Jim Jamison Years" heading leads to the wrong page.

This sentence doesn't seem to fit under "2000-2006". When read with the rest of the section, it reads as though Bickler sang half the songs on the REACH album and I'm pretty sure that's not correct.

'Six of the album's twelve songs were written and recorded in the 1990's with Dave Bickler on lead vocals (except "Never The Less" & "Talkin' Bout Love").'

Just curious ----Herbert Arthur

Fair use rationale for Image:Bestcollofsurvivor.jpg

Image:Bestcollofsurvivor.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 01:41, 1 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
