[edit] Different things

Please do not delete this page or others like it! I didn't know what an ultra lounge was, so I checked my first quick reference, Wikipedia. Now I know, and I'm glad.

These leads to a larger issue of various of Wikipedia's policies - in this case, the "orphan" policy ... I think it needs a serious rethinking. Just because something doesn't have links doesn't make it unimportant. In defense 03:58, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

Another issue is that "Ultralounge" also appears to be music genre related to Space age pop, or at least music related to Lounge music. Actually Ultralounge is a trademark of Capitol records. They use it to describe their tradition lounge music releases, such as Cole Porter, etc. __meco 09:32, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

This article isn't actually orphaned anymore - it's linked from Nightclub. --WayneMokane (talk) 17:55, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

further clarification: Ultra lounge as two words does not violate Capitol Records trademark; as two words it becomes a general adjective. That said, "ultra" lounges can be thought of as 21st century Tiki Lounges and/or 21st century "Vegas" style side lounges. Modern Vegas hotels no longer have side lounges where B level acts (such as Louis Prima played at odd hours where gamblers went to rest or when otherwise not gambling. The original lounges existed because hotel owners did not want guests to leave the hotels at all; modern hotel/casinos still don't want guests to leave, and offer everything anyone could ever want. The "ultra" lounge in it's present form is what young people imagine it was like, or should have been when The Rat Pack owned Vegas, which it wasn't. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.112.170.253 (talk) 15:40, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
