[edit] Band Member Names
According to Alexisonfire's website it says that George's last name is Logan not Petitt, and that Wade's last name is Preston not Macneil. Any clarifications on this? Thanks, King Bigos
- With regards to their surnames - George's is Pettit and Wade's is MacNeil - the ones they have on their website are simply homages to the Bill & Ted films (Ted "Theodore" Logan and Bill S. Preston Esq.) If you watch the video for Hey It's Your Funeral Mama, George is showing the other Georges how to sign his name, look closely on the flip chart, at the top, "Pettit" is written with a big tick next to it and "Logan" is written but crossed out. I've got a screen shot of it, where you can just about make it out: Screenshot here Jubella

[edit] George on Video On Trial
I removed the following from the videography section:
"George Pettit appeared in two or three episodes of the Much Music programming"
I did this for a few reasons:
- it should probably go into George's article.. leading to my next point..
- it doesn't belong in the videography section
- it isn't that significant, alexisonfire has done many shows with Much Music, an example being with Ed the Sock
- "two or three episodes".. we want this to maybe someday be a good, or even featured article.. that just doesn't cut it

[edit] The Switcheroo Series Album Name
There has been a lot of various names for this album posted, including "The Switcheroo Series: Moneen vs. Alexis", "The Switcheroo Series: Alexisonfire vs. Moneen", and more recently "The Switcheroo Series: Burning Down The Pine Room". I have no idea where the Pine Room one is comming from; first, it says nothing about pine anything on the album, second this is the first in a series of "Switcheroo" albums from their label, and third the actual website listed it as "The Switcheroo Series: Alexisonfire vs. Moneen", or sometimes like on iTunes, its listed as simply "Switcheroo".
My point is where is this burning down the pineroom whatever the hell come from, and why do you think that is the name of the album??
respectfully, jerkmonkee 03:45, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
- The pineroom could be the studio where the album was recorded in.
With regards, King Bigos
- I believe that "Burning Down The Pine Room" is the subtitle that the EP was released in the UK under. Cheers. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.48.243.189 (talk • contribs).
- We should go with The Switcheroo Series: Alexisonfire vs. Moneen for now, that is the title of the article. I will do an investigation to further confirm it. --Reaper X 07:24, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Added Band Template
Thats the thing that ties all the related Alexsiofire Pages together at the bottom. I also added them to all the related Alexsiofire pages. The reason that I'm mentioning this is because it might be confusing for anyone trying to edit it, its on a seperate page Here. If you want to add it to any other pages, simply add, without the quotes, "{{Alexisonfire}}" to it.

[edit] Genre
Indie? How can they be indie if they're on Atticus? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.12.134.248 (talk • contribs). 12:51, June 12, 2005
- They're not 'on' Atticus. They're signed to Equal Vision records in America, Distort Entertainment in Canada and Sore Point Records in Europe. All 3 of these labels = independent record labels therefore they are classed as 'indie' Jubella 18:52, June 22, 2005
- Are they metalcore? Their album pages say they are hardcore punk, and from what I've heard they don't sound like metalcore at all. I m arch 13:29, 31 October 2005 (UTC)Arch

- They're not metalcore, they are Post-Hardcore. But discussion of the self title to actually be Screamo. -Davepwnt 21:35, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
-
- Yeah they are Post-Hardcore (Socialismo01 20:27, 4 December 2006 (UTC))
Let's leave it at that. Post-hardcore, nothing more. The more general we stay on genre, the less edit warring we will have. --Reaper X 22:43, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Alexis Fire
I am going to remove the link because its a link to a stripper's website, and i dont really think thats appropriate content for everyone who uses the Wikipedia.--Windsamurai 19:04, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
- Why is there a link to the "non" website? I am removing it because it has no relevance. --Zippanova 17:38, 3 May 2005 (UTC)
-
- It's the website they were named after - I think it has a lot of relevance
-
-
- I deleted a link to Alexis Fire's website on the page. So I simply ask:
- Don't put links to Alexis Fire's website in the article, seeing as it is porn. King Bigos
-
-
-
-
- There should be some reference to her site since that's what they were named after. There doesn't have to be an actual clickable link, just have it written there. If people choose to look at it, so be it. I'm sure it's been done a million times before. Or you could put a link and then put a warning, I just think it should be there considering that's the band name's origin Jubella 08:30, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

- Where they got the name from should be noted, but if someone desires to go to the page that much, then they can simply do a Google search. --robz0r 08:54, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

- The band's real site is www.theonlybandever.com (Socialismo01 20:25, 4 December 2006 (UTC))

[edit] Peacock terms
A tag was added stating that this article may be compromised by peacock terms. I scanned the article, and failed to see anything like "one of the best...", "the most influential...", "a significant...", "intriguingly...", or anything like that. Perhaps I did not look hard enough. If anyone can point out any peacock terms, go for it, and remove them. If I fail to see any more evidence of it, I will remove the tag. --Reaper X 21:37, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Crisis Torrent
In mid-July, a torrent of the yet to be released Crisis album was available on the internet from various BitTorrent sites over a month before the UK release date, which is set on August 21, 2006.
[edit] About the release of Alexisonfire's new album: Crisis
On limited edition cds. They include a usb drive which has contents the live performances of "Accidents" and "Mailbox Arson" (performed @ Scene Music Festival, St. Catherines), the making of the videoes "Passing of America" and "This could be Anywhere"(Muchmusic's On Set of "This could be Anywhere") and a video of photos while they were in Europe with the Audio of a new song "Thorns". There is also a extra song on the usb drive called, "My God is a Reasonable Man". —The preceding unsigned comment was added by ShadowSlave (talk • contribs).
[edit] Videography
I gave the videography its own article. In that article, all the information in the former "Direction" subsection on the main article is redistributed under each respective music video. The old "direction" section didn't actually have much to do with direction anyway. It was more like a short synopsis for most of the videos. Pardon me for not discussing it. I'm reverting the edit back now, assuming there's no objections. --EndlessVince 20:00, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Magazine Covers
Well wikipedia wont let us put magazine covers on pages unless it is the magazine's actual page so voila - Chart (magazine) + Eye weekly + The Coast - I intend to take over the world - well wikipedia with my Alexisonfire covers - I will keep you informed of any more i manage to sneak in!!! --Sharonlees 11:42, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Template SNAFU
Hey guys. I recently modified the bands template. Aloing with including Jesse Ingelevics, I replaced · with |, and Side projects and labels under the heading "Related content. Give me hell for messing with a good thing, but now this related content section is all bolded for some reason, and I cannot figure out why. Can someone see if they can fix it? --Reaper X 23:30, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Reuploaded Infobox image
Alright I reuploaded the infobox image with all the proper fair use and the photographer blabla.. its from the press section of the band's label's website, it was meant to be used like this, there is no copyright infringement and so on.. if you remove it, i will jump you..

[edit] Steele Backing Vocals
Since I've never known Chris Steele to provide any sort of vocals for the band, and the fact that Wade had no mention of the vocals he performs for the band beside his name, I removed "vocals" from Steele and added them to Wade. --Paddled 03:07, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
