On the top page could be a kist of the band members, pictures of each band member or 1 picture of all of them together, and the years each band member was active or the band itself was active. Also, it could be posted three or four hours after Album of the Day.

That's actually a pretty good idea. But, I'd prefer a band of the week instead, considering it would be covering a substantial body of work in many cases. Just how I feel. But good idea anyway. Smile

Well, we don't have to put every single album they did there. But we could put a link to their BEA page on.

I don't see the point in having only 52 bands a year...

This. Each week can be a week that we can discuss a band. There is a lot more to discuss about a band than an album so we would need a week.

Yeah, one link is enough, but like Jasonconfused says, discussing a band is potentially a much larger discussion than an album.

The way I see it, our band threads get just as much discussion as the AotD threads. Take a look at the Zeppelin and Alice Cooper threads.

Music thread would be even more flooded.

Only if 'Of the Day' gets it's own board.

i think it is a bad idea unless it lets in like the top 365 as possibles and doesn't do the same one twice in a year.

knowing my luck oasis or u2 will be made band of the day 5 times each

I'm hoping nothing like that happens. Really, if I were in charge of it, I'd stir away from my personal favorites to just think of a random band each week. Portishead, Coldplay, Taylor Swift, Nickleback, CSN, CCR, Chuck Berry...

WHOA! Solo artist of the week, and Band of the week! Taking place on two different days! That would be great!
