Bands subforum

**Sanzoo** · 10:30 AM

i think we should make a bands sub forum in the music forum.
Because if everyone posts there bands in the music forum it will be a huge list (i guess) and if we make a band subforum, we motivate the members to posts there favorite bands and talk about them, so its like a band fan site then. And i think we can attract some music lovers to our forum if we make the music forum bigger. so what do you say?

I don't think it's necesarry
But if there is lots of requests for this, i'll consider

well there aren't many people who post there bands yet... so maybe just give it a shot and see if it works.

Not necessary since we already have the music thread where you can talk about songs and bands and etc...

One of my orignal hopes for the music forum and music downloads was that many people would use it to promote their bands. Sanzoo, feel free to create a poll and if this garners enough support, I'll be happy to add a bands sub-forum.

oh hey, i'm all for supporting this one.

here's what i was thinking tho, see what you all think

The music subforum can be dedicated to uploading and shite for bands.
Discussion of the bands would also be there. Like, the thread starter for the band they chose would update it anytime they come across something new.
Trust me, i know people that would kill to have a place to download music, and hey, let's face it, we have music.
and if at all possible to have a specific request thread stickied there for people to just hog that space for music requests.

For Example:

Multimedia > Music > Music Requests (Thread)

All music requests would go there, no pestering on a band's thread.

I mean, something I would do is create that Band's SubSubforum.

So we'd have something like: (Made by me and help from Wikipedia.)

Multimedia > Music > Bands > Coldplay

Coldplay went on to be nominated for this prestigious award on two further occasions, once in 2003 and again in 2005. Coldplay have been one of the most commercially successful acts of the new millennium, selling over 30 million albums. The band are also known for hit singles, including "In My Place" and the Grammy Award-winning "Clocks".

Coldplay's early material was compared to acts such as Jeff Buckley and Radiohead, while also drawing comparisons to U2 and Travis. Since the release of Parachutes, Coldplay have also drawn influence from other sources, including Echo and the Bunnymen and George Harrison on A Rush of Blood to the Head (2002) and Johnny Cash and Kraftwerk for X&Y (2005). Both of these albums were released to great critical acclaim and commercial success. In 2002, A Rush of Blood to the Head was named as NME's Album of the Year.

Coldplay have been an active supporter of various social and political causes, such as Oxfam's Make Trade Fair campaign and Amnesty International. The group has also performed at various charity projects such as Band Aid 20, Live 8, and the Teenage Cancer Trust.

Since December 2006, the band have been working with producer Brian Eno on a fourth album, expected to be released in the first half of 2008.

Viva la Vida or Death And All His Friends is the fourth studio album that will be released by Coldplay June 11 (Japan) moving through at others countries ending it's release at USA & Canada on the 17th. "Violet Hill" a single from Viva la Vida has been released to the public via free download from coldplay's official website from April 29-May 6. The song can now be downloaded by paying or by buying the single.
