I ineed a ban name added to the CAST area

You can add 2MX2 as a 'qv' link in a Soundtrack submission. I would also submit a Misc Comment pointing out that it's a real name.

You can only add the band to the cast list if they appear on screen, if they do do so then submit a Misc Comment pointing out that it's a real bandname.

More info about the group credits:


"Group Credits:


When a group with identifiable members appears on screen, we credit according to the way they are credited in the production.


If The Beatles are credited that way, we would not enter "Lennon, John (as The Beatles); McCartney, Paul (as The Beatles); Harrison, George (as The Beatles); Starr, Ringo (as The Beatles)" Instead, they would simply be credited as "Beatles, The".

In the above cases, individual members of the group can be added to credits with the (uncredited) attribute.

E.g. Help! (1965): Paul McCartney ... Paul - The Beatles (uncredited), or if appropriate (documentaries, talk shows etc.) Paul McCartney ... Himself - The Beatles (uncredited).

Please note we prefer the "Paul - The Beatles" hyphenated character notation, rather than "member of" or "one of".

Note that this applies to cast as seen on the film and does not in any way, change the rule not allowing uncredited employees (XYZ employee) of a credited company (XYZ Inc.) be listed as part of a film's crew.

If they are credited both as a group and individually (e.g.: "The Beatles: John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Ringo Starr"), then both the group name and individual names would be listed as they are in the credits.

Where a band is credited in the form 'Bandleader and The Musicians' (Elvis Costello and the Attractions, for instance) they should be credited that way and will have an entry in the database all of their own. It's possible, though, that in other titles they'll be credited separately or independently. If either Bandleader or The Musicians appear somewhere on their own we could end up with an entry for 'Bandleader' as well as one for 'The Musicians'. So we have a page for Elvis Costello on his own as well as one for Elvis Costello and the Attractions. So far we have no page for The Attractions, but if they ever get a qualifying credit on their own without Costello we'll create one. As long as they are credited on screen that way, this is fine."

Tracey,

As you may have found out, you are unable to add the band name 2MX2 because of the following or similar rejection message below:
