[edit] Examples
It might be worthwhile to add a section of examples of literature, TV shows, or movies that could be called "americana". Off of the top of my head, Huck Finn, To Kill a Mockingbird, That 70s Show, Field of Dreams, etc. The positive I see to a seciton like this is that "americana" is such a broad term and so hard to define without examples. By having this section, which would allow people to add examples of their own, we would give a much more complete picture and definition. --Cms479 20:28, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Sid and Marty Krofft
Sid and Marty Kroft should be added.
[edit] Need to expand this article
This has to be expanded. Amusement parks, dark rides, American comedy, Roadside monuments, Swamp rock, comic books, Mickey Mouse, Disneyland, Rollerskating rinks, mom and pop businesses, etc are all things we could add to expand this section.
[edit] Role of The Band
Not sure how much this group needs to be mentioned, but the subjective ranking of it above Elvis Presley and the overstated importance of "The Last Waltz" is certainly overkill that would be better talked about in The Band's own entry.
