Avocadp Window?[edit]

What on earth is this? Even assuming it's a typo for "Avocado Window", Google doesn't bring up any mention of it in association with The Go! Team (seems to be a popular furniture add-on for The Sims 2 though!). No mention on the band's web site, no entry on discogs.com, no plays on last.fm. Removing this CD single entry until someone can provide evidence that it actually exists. --Sonance (talk) 17:28, 28 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Get It Together on LittleBigWorld Demo[edit]

Yahoo.com has added two demos for the forthcoming Sony videogame LittleBigPlanet and both video demos feature Get It Together. This has been added to the "Featured On" section. I hope that's cool! Generic248 (talk) 19:29, 9 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]


New album, 'Proof of Youth', leaked[edit]

Just wondering if anyone wanted to incorporate the fact that The Go! Team's new album, Proof of Youth, has been leaked onto the net? --JJMan 18:15, 3 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Article sort-out[edit]

Whole thing needed organising really, too many references for their tracks being used for adverts (do we really need to know about the use of a track on a public radio station?). Multiple links to the same articles were on there too, and I've partially sorted them. Next album should help the article along nicely, can't wait :) The Hurball Company 12:29, 29 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Google test[edit]

Google test: 205,000 google hits for "The Go! Team". [1] Kappa 12:29, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Update: now 170,000, dropping (nothing recently released, probably). Should spike when they get their next album out. As an aside, The Go! Team are absolutely fantastic. Tyrhinis 21:15, September 1, 2005 (UTC)
Relevant in my opinion, stumbled upon a song of theirs on [2] and came looking for them on Wikipedia. 81.221.145.80 08:06, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Number of drummers[edit]

The intro says they have four drummers - I thought it was two? Is the "four drummers" because four of them can drum (or four of them drum when they are recording in the studio)? There are only two drummers when they play live. I have changed the article text to 2, but feel free to correct me. Ends Of Invention 11:42, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Probably refering to the fact that 4 people within the band can play the drums. They often switch around playing live, hence the confusion --Rilstix 12:22, 19 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Featured on section[edit]

I think that this section should be removed as it is basically trivia. Any successful band's music will appear on compilation albums and be licensed for use in ads, TV shows, etc, so this is nothing special. This is especially the case as the songs in question were first released as either singles or on albums. Nick Dowling (talk) 09:57, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

As no-one seems to oppose this, I've just removed the section. Nick Dowling (talk) 09:03, 5 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Power is On[edit]

The song "The Power is On" from the album "Thunder, Lightening, Strike" is heavily used in the NFLs 'Play 60' ad campaign

two versions of thunder, lightning, strike[edit]

i found that there are two different versions of thunder, lightning, strike. one with a different female vocalist on the tracks with her, and a more polished version of everyone's a vip to someone. i don't know all the details, obviously, but if someone does, they should add it in somewhere. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sbogar1 (talkcontribs) 20:28, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

primary topic[edit]

In ictu oculi recently moved this page from The Go! Team to disambiguate from The Go Team, which was moved to The Go Team (American band). however, i think that this page could be considered the primary topic, as it is viewed 2-3 times more than the other article. wouldn't it make more sense to have this page be The Go! Team with a hatnote distinguishing them from the American band, which would retain the parenthetical disambiguation? ~ Boomur [] 17:06, 21 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

WP:RECENT will always apply 1980s vs 2000s. So WP:PRIMARYTOPIC really requires an absolute overwhelming view plus long term significance. It's the second point here that might be the problem. Not that the The Go! Team (UK band) doesn't match, though not outweigh, The Go Team (American band) (from the Nirvana biography and Sonic Youth Story etc) in books, it's that both bands are swamped with capitalized "the Go Team" concepts in everything from mass casualty and incident management, LSU sports, spy extraction, Christian missionary teams. It's generic and often capitalized, not that we have a go team concept article, just a dab page. Given that there is no clear primary topic, then removing (UK band) and (American band) brings us back to relying on the ! alone as supplying "UK 2000s not US 1980s". But you're welcome to remove (UK band) if you wish. In ictu oculi (talk) 17:22, 21 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
ok, thanks for clarifying the duality of the primary topic policy. i see how it's a bit of a grey area! ~ Boomur [] 02:42, 22 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Is there some doubt as to the Go! Team poster in the Movie?[edit]

No reason was given for the removal of my pop culture use of The Go! Team. Zengalileo (talk) 22:08, 25 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The Go! Team poster in movie The Day the Earth Stood Still[edit]

If it's a matter of there not being any secular reference to this fact, is not the fact that anyone one can see it with their own two eyes good enough to establish it as fact? Or does a New York Times reporter need to cover it before it can be verified as truth? Zengalileo (talk) 22:18, 25 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
