John Tesh working with Yanni

Yanni dedicates some time in his autobiographical book, "Yanni in Words", to John and their friendship. John was one of Yanni's first touring keyboardists before being replaced by Bradley Joseph when John went on to begin his solo career, I think he did about 12 concerts with Yanni. Can some of this history be added? I have the book so if there are no objections, I could put in a short summary about it? Cricket02 15:40, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

John Tesh is very tall?

Why is that in there? Is 6'6" very tall? I definately don't think it's noteworthy, and if so, could we build a paragraph around it?

Yes, of course 6'6" is "very tall." It's well over three standard deviations above the mean for an American. It's about as tall as the average NBA basketball player.

Seems to be controversy over cheating accusations. Does anyone have a source?

The whole cheating thing is false. John Tesh got a degree in communications from NCSU. He wasn't expelled for cheating. He's listed on multiple NCSU pages as an alumnus (which requires a degree), including http://gopack.collegesports.com/school-bio/ncstatecampus.html. His bio in a few places (including http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/tesh2) says he got a degree in communications.

The 97% factor.

I think that it is documented that John Tesh was proven by a worldwide vote to be unlisten-to-able. The clams and mollusks were the other 3%, by the way. Do you need a source before you include this? It was all over the news at the time but I guess if you want to delete it, you are the one who looks uninformed here.

It is not appropriate to add jokes to Wikipedia articles. You're welcome to contribute here, but please make sure that your future contributions are unbiased and factually accurate. Rhobite 03:24, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
