I see you're Australian, I'm American, and I'm telling you, bands are "they" here, ''not'' "it". "We went on tour with it" sounds completely wrong, and this tendency to refer to bands as "it" is something I've noticed on Wikipedia more than anywhere else (and not even consistently within articles, like this one). Believe me, I've been listening to music my whole life, and we say "they", not "it" – we only use the singular when we use the name of the band itself. `[[User:Esszet|Esszet]] ([[User talk:Esszet|talk]]) 03:30, 20 January 2024 (UTC) |

It/They
I see you're Australian, I'm American, and I'm telling you, bands are "they" here, not "it". "We went on tour with it" sounds completely wrong, and this tendency to refer to bands as "it" is something I've noticed on Wikipedia more than anywhere else (and not even consistently within articles, like this one). Believe me, I've been listening to music my whole life, and we say "they", not "it" – we only use the singular form of verbs when we use the name of the band itself. `Esszet (talk) 03:30, 20 January 2024 (UTC)
