Yeah a bit of a pet peeve of mine that little words like "Who" and "Yes" get automatically eliminated from searches. Name your bands better, people! LOL

There's tags - try using them instead...

Try searching for Pete Townshend or Roger Daltry or Keith Moon or John Entwistle, and hope the uploaders included band member names in the description...?

But, yeah, I hear you man.... Anyone got some other workarounds to share for searching "banned" band names?

Try it as one word - TheWho.

Yeah, searching for song titles you know they're gonna play works (in the body of the post not just title of posts...)


I've seen bands like R.E.M. have REMtorrents or Yes having Yestorrents or things like that to help in posts of bands like that, but not all posters include those extra words to assist searches...


I do highly recommend to users sharing bands with unsearchable band names like these to add as many buzzwords in your text as you can to help folks find your posts. List band members. Song titles (obviously). Where the band comes from. Whatever you can think of that relates to that band that someone might think to look for them with - put it in the body of your info text! It all helps...

And tag your posts! Tag searches can be pretty useful when posters bother to include them properly...
