Okay, I did some investigating, and well, I found this cool band called
The Black Maria. They have a webpage at [url=http://www.
theblackmaria.com]THEblackmaria.com, and well, I did a search on here, for
The Black Maria, and this OTHER band, called
Black Maria showed up too, with like 82 fans, and well, who knows, that might be a tad outdated even, so it makes me wonder, how many USERS have
The Black Maria in their profile, mistagged, as this no name, no picture, band called
Black Maria?
hahah, and another variation, there's also
Black Maria, The, with 21 fans.
I know how music and tagging is, everyone thinks THEIR way of tagging is > (greater/better) than someone elses version of tagging, but with a site like last.fm, for the data to be neatly organized and such, you got to come together and form a common ground.
So in conclusion, if you have listened to the artist known as
The Black Maria, but have them in your profile as
Black Maria, The, or
Black Maria, you should use the Profile + Tag Editor to remove these wrongfully tagged bands to make the data consistent.
Sure, you will lose those listens, but there's nothing stopping you from re-listening to the tracks again, after you tag them properly as
The Black Maria using the musicbrainz.org tagger, or any other available tagger.
Fans of
The Black Maria, I urge you to spread the word, amongst the users, fans, and neighbors you see that have this band mislabeled as
Black Maria, The, or
Black Maria.
EDIT:
Ok, some clarification. I got word back from
pr7, that the
Black Maria he listens to is actually "a French band "Black Maria" (from Perpigan)", so that's all fine and dandy. But yea, apparantly there are some others out there.
