Memo: When talking about a band, please refer to the band in the singular tense - even though there are plural band members....

It is 'Foreigner IS back in the studio', NOT 'Foreigner ARE back in the studio'......

for Steve's sake....jeesh! :lol:

No, the correct answer was, 'Kansas DOES'.....C'mon, B....you can't be this stupid. :lol:

When refering to the actual band name it is singular, unless ending in an 'S' (also, when refering to the letter 'S', using An instead of A sounds better), but when refering to the band members it will be plural....make sense?

Yes, and if Foreigner would hire a buch of brazillians to join the band would you say, Foreigners foreigners are in the studio as foreigner is recording again.

In my opinion the brits get this wrong, they say something like " Manchester United are climbling to the top of the football table." when they should be using is in that sentence........

My only pet peeve is when people blame anyone but theirself. Fat people blaming tasty ice cream, smokers blaming the magical power of nicotine and/or quitters blaming bad weather or whatever; gets me every damn time.

Agreed. I quit smoking after 36 years. I smoked since I was 14. I just used some balls and just quit. No fucking nicotine gum or chantix or any of that crap. I just made my mind up that I knew the first few days would be tough and just bit the bullet, vowing not to smoke under any circumstances. I've made it a month and a half now and I have no more desire to smoke. I'm proud of that. :D
