[edit] Member names

According to the end credits, it's MARK "LOVE MAN" PENDER. But then again, it also lists just "LA BAMBA" without Richies real full name. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 82.176.51.190 (talk • contribs) .

[edit] Band name

Why is this article called "Weinberg Seven" instead of the numeral? The band is called The Max Weinberg 7, as can be seen on the front of Max's bass drum. I understand that most people write out numbers less than ten, but this is the name of a band. Why isn't the article for L7 called L-seven? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 64.8.1.2 (talkcontribs).

It's fairly ambiguous. It's probably a 7 on the kit because there isn't space for the whole word. The official Late Night site spells out seven. [1] --waffle iron talk 01:09, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
Similarly, why isn't the article name "The Max Weinberg 7", with the 'the'. Wikiguidlines state that the article title should include the 'the' if it is officially part of the title (like "The Beatles", rather than the "Barenaked Ladies". I believe (correct me if I'm wrong) that the band's official title does include the 'the'? The band's album even includes the 'the'. TheHYPO 04:30, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Band in skits

I believe its LaBamba and not Max who does the falsetto voice for "In The Year 2000" skit. The page says its Max, but I've seen LaBamba sing it and never Max. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Painteddog (talkcontribs) 18:20, 4 May 2007 (UTC).

The article states that Rosenberg (as in Richie "LaBamba" Rosenberg) does the falsetto. Just64helpin 18:34, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Movivng with Conan?

Will the Max Weinberg 7 be moving to LA with Conan in 2009? It could be a good thing to include in the article if anyone knows for sure.--ChesterMarcol (talk) 06:03, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

I second that. Or will Jimmy Fallon keep them at Late Night? ooo i love speculation.Moonraker0022 (talk) 19:06, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
Story I saw said Fallon still has to choose a band, so I don't think MW7 would stay. Don't know if they'd move either (they have strong NYC ties, and Max seems to so often be away with Bruce now that he wasn't when they started Late Night.) we'll have to wait and see.
