Article fails to mention that Heyman was a member of The Doughboys in the 60's, before he "went solo"
[edit]The article fails to mention that Hayman was a member of the Doghboys in the 60s. Cosequently, when it mentions that he "went solo," the statement is baffling, because there is no mention of the prior band that he was in. The article makes it seem that, in his current work with The Doughboys, that he has never played with them before. He was a crucial member of that band in the 60s. The way the word "legendary" is used does not sound objective. It could be changed to "regarded as legendary," etc.
I made these necessary changes. I have slightly changed and improved the wording to sound more encyclopedic and read more smoothly. My additions about the Doughboys in the 60's are based on information provided in the Wiki article, "The Doughboys (New Jersey band)" (we should try to list more sources in this article). I also made mention in the sentence in the heading (which appeared to be incomplete, ending in a comma) that he is also a musician. Garagepunk66 (talk) 10:40, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
In the bio section, we may have to remove the statememt about "banging on things when he was five," beacause it does not look objective may be difficult to substantiate, that is unless we can tie it into a tangible quote or recollection given by someone that knew him (or by himself).
