Default Difference between bands and groups
One of my pet irks is boy/girl groups being called bands. No, you are NOT a band. You stand in a line and sing. You don't play instruments. Most of you probably don't know what one is. You are NOT a band



End of rant

No. It's something that's bugged me for years. Think it was a thread talking about Gary that set me off
