- I couldn't care less about what Zep and Bad Company members do, and resisted making the lazy comparison to Electronic.  Supergroups are anything but, unless they are local.

- Somebody actually attempted to track all Erasure live performances on a site called Erasuregig.com....but hasn't maintained it since 2014.  The duo (with an array of other performers) has played 130+ times since then.  There are at least a half dozen great live videos of Wild! performances on YouTube.  That's probably them at their peak, like Björk, it's just been a steady descent from their early 90s peak.  Speaking of errant punctuation...

- Therapy? would have been more popular if they didn't have the question mark messing up people's file metadata.  I leave it out on mine.  Maybe streaming solves this?
