Topic: Is 'The' really necessary?

You don't see many of the rare ones, do you?

While adding items - especially live gigs - I've noticed that there have been a number of bands who had two separate listings despite being the same outfit, the only difference being that the name sometimes had a 'The' prefix and sometimes not. I'm aware that some of these varied on their own record releases anyway, so wouldn't it just be easier in most cases to drop 'The' from the name generally unless it was an integral part of the name such as in The The or The Audience (to distinguish them from Audience) so that there is less chance for confusion? Any thoughts? After all, when filing LPs, 45s or CDs most would put The Doors under D, The Beatles under B, etc, or else we'd have a huge section under 'T'.
