[edit] Born in 1974

I noticed that someone requested a citation for his birth year. His MTV bio lists him as being born in 1975, and the same year was originally listed on this article. The reporter probably asked his age before December of that year and assumed that he was born in 1975. I took the liberty of correcting this error, since he was actually born in December of 1974. I'm pretty sure about his birthday, because I have to buy him a present every year; I'm his brother. Jysan2001 07:06, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Copyvio May 2006

I've removed text copied from Kid Koala's Ninjatune biography added by 70.53.191.159. Tim Ivorson 17:02, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

Can someone make that photo bigger? I don't think it's quite large enough.

if someone think this link should be added to the profile? http://oc-tv.net/kid-koala.htm

[edit] Discog

Any reason this isn't sorted by year? MKV 21:01, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

I think it's only because the items mentioned are not all official albums.

"Live from the Short Attention Span Audio Theater Tour!!" is a 5 track "mini-album" plus DVD containing the live performances and 4 music videos. "Some of my Best Friends are DJs" and "Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (album)" are official albums. "Scratchcratchratchatch" shouldn't even be on there as it was apparently Kid Koala's early demo tape (cassette-only), limited to 500 copies. Nufonia Must Fall is listed as a graphic novel plus a 17 minute 10 track CD. The music is reportedly not like other Koala releases.

As such, I've reformatted the discography to only include official album releases and created a second section for the other stuff. Gram 21:58, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

Cool, thanks. MKV 03:56, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Bio

As of October of 2006, San is married, and has just embarked on a 90-city tour.

Couldn't find any mention of this on google, any citation? MKV 03:56, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

Just saw him in vancouver and he told us he just got married. Then he showed us his ring. Does that count as a valid source? :) --Lackthereof 20:39, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

It's also in his official EPK, at the very end of the video. Check http://www.nufonia.com/ for more details. -- UnknownCity

[edit] unrelated request

This probably isn't appropriate for here, but I'm trying to find a live set that Kid Koala performed in the late 90s via an early internet radio show. There was an astonishing part of the set that combined some surfy guitar with the theramin from the original star trek theme... anyone w/ info, could you drop me a note? optimus at optimuscrime dot com. Thanks!
