and has the Last. FM keep stats clean image, instead of a band picture.

I wanna know how to fix it without losing all them plays. Anybody less n00bish know if it's possible?
You could *try* setting auto-correct on in your settings ("website" tab) and it *might* correct previous plays (and anything else you may have incorrect tags for). I remember when this feature was first introduced, it was on by default and everyone's play counts shifted. When I turned it off, it readjusted everything. I think. I do not use this feature, as I'm pretty meticulous with my tags and found that it sometimes auto-corrected stuff incorrectly. Not sure what would happen if you turned it on. I assume you have it off, otherwise your plays would have auto-corrected to Pixies. PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK. This is the only way I know that you could possibly convert your plays from The Pixies to Pixies. Otherwise, I suggest clearing all your The Pixies plays, create a playlist of 242 Pixies tracks (fix your tags first), and play it while you sleep.

Regardless of what you do, fix your tags.

I'd love to see your signature/links too, but the huge and obnoxious ones have caused me to block all signatures.
