What makes it more interesting is bands named after people.. Seemingly simple tags like: Lynryd Skynyrd The Dave Mathews Band George Thorogood & The Delware Destroyers Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble The Pat Metheny Group What do they become? I've started thinking I'm going to redo all my tags to just be regular format, rather than the system I've come up with for alphabetizing every song I have. It makes sense to me, but everyone else that comes over to play something is used to looking for it under "George Thorogood" but I've conveniently placed it under "Thorogood, George" and that is confusing to them.
