I read that list and had a quick "WHOA!" moment. Status Quo? THE Status Quo?! The Quo who have been around since before I was born, and who've had more hit albums in the UK than any band other than the Rolling Stones? Can it be?

Nooo!

There's a new American band called Status Quo, and it's them.

For a moment, I thought I'd stepped into an alternative reality.

yeah, there's a vegan straight edge band called status quo from america

Awesome.

I give it a week before the Wikipedia nazis bullshit up a reason to delete it ;)

Aren't the guys in Cattle Decapitation vegan? I'm afraid to add them since I am not sure.

I don't mean to nitpick, but shouldn't this be a category page rather than its own wikipedia page?

Although I think the idea is a great one.

huh?

Wikipedia has a way to make lists like those of bands by categorizing them. For example:

Canadian Hardcore Punk Bands

ah ok i see
but you can only include on that bands that have a wikipedia article about them, by going to their page and inserting the category tag at the bottom. that doesn't allow bands without wikipedia articles to be on the list.

i don't know who michael franti is. however, a google search reveals that he is vegan.

i grabbed erykah badu and brandy off the list of 'famous vegetarians and vegans' at happycow.

yoko ono falls under the 'solo artists,' who are also included. it's not limited to what i like.

paul is definitely vegan.
couldn't find anything on melissa ferrick.
