Notability

edit

Not sure what constitutes importance for a music band. I would say since their music has been heard on a television show and their albums are available on Amazon.com, they are similar to bands like Fischerspooner or Over the Rhine.Mazeface 19:15, 1 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

"Interesting facts" is a terrible section title. But, I don't care enough to make that section more specific nor to delete it's "non-notable" lines. Acwilson9 (talk) 23:54, 19 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

Other bands of same name

edit

Perhaps it should be mentioned that there was a different New York band called "The Mosquitos" in the 80s. They were most notable for having written and recorded "That Was Then This Is Now," which later became a hit for The Monkees. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.173.245.229 (talk) 03:54, 8 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

There was also a group called "The Mosquitos" from the 1960s (Bingo, Bango, Bongo, and Irving). SimpsonDG (talk) 01:34, 26 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
Yeah! The Mosqitoes from episode 2.12 of Gilligan's Island. They are the reason for my search here. Are they just a fictional band? --85.164.223.223 (talk) 09:59, 3 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

Update regarding the state of the band

edit

The band has been disbanded, in light of Chris and Juju’s divorce. An update reflecting this development would be in order. ZaneYatesWallach (talk) 18:38, 19 January 2020 (UTC)Reply
