Banter and cosy chatter[edit]
Per January 03, 2009, the following paragraph made up roughly one third of the biography. Exclamation mark. I removed it, and leave it here for your gastronomic pleasure.
"During a show in Reykjavik, Iceland he sustained what was thought to be a minor injury to a finger. A splinter from a drumstick pierced under his fingernail on his right hand, he removed it with a pair of old pliers and applied a plaster. A few days later after arriving in Paris, France he was in so much pain he called a doctor. The doctor diagnosed a bad infection and recommended Bennett go to hospital immediately. Thinking it would be a short visit he attended only to find out that it would involve a minor, but very painful, operation to remove the poison. He was due to be playing on stage that evening and had already missed the soundcheck. He arrived at the theatre 15 minutes before the show with his right-hand bandaged and still numb from the anaesthetic. He managed to play for the whole show using an altered playing style.[1]"

Brian Bennett (musician) → Brian Bennett – Of the two other entries in the current disambiguation page, Brian Bennett, neither actually have "Brian Bennett" verbatim in the title. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 10:17, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
- Support. Wikipedia can be a Wonderful Land (but sometimes a bit confusing). Martinevans123 (talk) 12:18, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
- Support. They do now. The diplomat is also known as Brian Bennett. I've moved his page to Brian Bennett (diplomat). And it's actually irrelevant whether one entry is verbatim and another isn't. All three of these individuals will commonly be known as Brian Bennett. However, having said that, I think there's a definite primary topic here, and it's the drummer. Move Brian Bennett to Brian Bennett (disambiguation) of course. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:18, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
