Change the name. Seriously. I don't have any suggestions, but it needs to happen. I mean, "Music Band"? As opposed to... non-music bands? Rubber bands? --DorianGray 06:41, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
- I agree — how about Popular Music References? I don't know the intended scope of this page, but it might work.

- I never even heard of half the bands, so I highly doubt "Popular Music References" would work. If it were about references to popular music, that would severely alter the list here. MHarrington 21:01, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
- The ones that are currently on this page, Nirvana, The Ramones, TLC, and AC/DC are all very famous bands.

- Well, I didn't say I didn't know ALL the bands. I do know AC/DC and to a lesser extent the Ramones. But some bands I've never heard of until now. Also, I don't think "Popular Music References" would be a good title; it would take away from the main purpose of the article and confuse the reader. MHarrington 02:20, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
- Popular music is not a measure how well you know a particular band. I look at the list and I'm boggled that you don't know who Nirvana is, let alone TLC. Popular music is anything that is not art or classical music and is for widespread consumption. Therefore, I don't know why the rappers were also remove from the list (MC Hammer, Digital Underground, Heavy D and The Boyz, etc.), since that is also popular music. I think that Popular Music References is a better title since there are a lot of them on the site and they cover a wide range of genres; references to Sonic Youth, Tom Waits, Mudhoney, Sex Pistols, Peter Frampton, Fatboy Slim, Vince Guarldi etc. wbwolf (t | ed) 03:51, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
