Introduction
editHi! I truly love Wikipedia because it helps people to know more facts. And being a huge music fan and researcher, I want to provide sometimes rare, but officially sourced facts about music bands and artists, especially about biographies, band members, band names and timelines. I'm always doing an extensive researches with a really close attention to exact dates and other small details. My goal is to do justice to all music history and all its participants.
