h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Are you interested in collaborating on an entry about the Beastie Boys?

I've searched the guide and there doesnt seem to be a proper entry, correct me if im wrong.

I have plenty of information about them (biography, discography etc).

Big Mad Mr T (sXe)recomended i talk to you.im not (sXe) myself but heard that radio1 documentary.

I'd definitely by interested in colaborating. I know of some really good resources for beastie interpretations and stuff. Yeah, so when do you want to get started?

Well right now im in the middle of some major GCSE coursework, which has to be done by 12th October so i dont have too much time at the mo. I will start aquiring stuff though. Im new to H2G2 and have never written an article. I think the best way would be to split it into sections and each deal with a section. What do you reckon? Any ideas for sections either?

Niall

Yeah, I got no problem with a delay, I can always do some work on my stuff. The way I normally break these music articles down is by doing it chronologically. E.g we'd have a section for each phase in the bands career defining that as when albums are released. Another approach would be to break them into a biography of the band, then individual members, a career overview, then some bit about the future direction.

In either case I'm probably going to be best at cataloguing the early stuff as that's the bit I know most about.

Did you hear about Grand Royal?

It was just too eclectic to make any money. The world has gone completely mad today.

Niall

It had some big bands though like ATDI.

Anyway things have gone pretty mad, with reason though. I just hope the US doesn't declare war.

They can only declare war but they cannot fight a war because there is no-one to fight. To fight a war you need a clear-cut enemy, a state, not a band of terrorists. It would be like Tony blair declaring war on ireland because of the IRA.

I think we're safe for now at least.
