Dictionary definition[edit]

Did a Google search on "Bad Manners" and this came up. Looking for actual examples of bad manners in the US. I don't think this is the best primary link use for this article heading.

That all depends, however, on if there is a WP artile on "bad manners (behavior)". If not, someone should create one.

Genre[edit]

Hi! I'd like to know what genre of music does "Bad Manners" play? Thanks a lot.

The genre is Ska. MP.

"Ska'N'B" is probably what they'd say: there is a liberal dose of rock'n'roll in the early albums, especialy the one called... what was it? ;-) 86.143.183.139 (talk) 15:27, 2 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Members?[edit]

I dont know enough about Bad Manners to change it myself but it seems rather unlikely that Buster Bloodvessel is a member and a former member. If he's still a member he can't technically be a former member, can he? Glassbreaker5791 04:07, 13 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Quite right - he is a present member - article amended accordingly.

I can't agree with the comment "....not even the ability to play any musical instruments." In fact it should read that they had no formal training, but were and are all excellent musicians who between them play a variety of musical instruments.

The closing statememt says Louis Alphonso made a claim about the first 4 CDs.can you give a source for this?Could you mention in the article whether he'sa member or a former member?

I am a former member of Bad Manners. Can someone please change the myspace link to the correct myspace for Bad Manners. Bad Manners have nothing to do with the myspace you have listed so the information is incorrect, out of date etc please change this to www.myspace.com/badmannersofficial

i would do this myself but computers are not my thing —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.10.169.146 (talk) 09:58, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Origin of name[edit]

I am sure that an article claimed in Jackie once quoted their lead singer as saying "We are not rude to people - that is not what our name means. It just means that we like to act in a crazy way instead of being formal or polite". At least that was the gist of the quote - if it was not in "Jackie", it was in some equally intellectual source! I think that some reference to how they got their name would be informative in this article. ACEOREVIVED (talk) 23:35, 5 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah; if you can find a reliable source - following your logic The Beano, Hello, Viz or even, given current events (ie completely forgotten about next week), The News of the World perhaps !
