I Changed who played what, because acording to Jason Ankeny's Article on AllMusic They "democratically rotated vocal, guitar, and drum duties between members". In addition there is video footage of the members playing the different instruments. Though Bret never did vocals, and I've seen no evidence of Calvin playing drums. - Lewiscode

[edit] Name origin

Does anyone have any information as to where the band's name came from? Does it have anything to do with the beat generation? - Ugliness Man 16:13, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Suicide?

I really don't think that the dead author is the same Heather Lewis as the one in Beat Happening... but I guess I don't know for sure? --65.81.8.66 20:04, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

No, it's not the same person. I see the real Heather Lewis all the time at the West Seattle YMCA. - 24.22.122.167 - Halloweener '06
