You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 3.215.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪SQL‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 05:07, 3 October 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Arrogance''' is a [[Rock music|rock]] [[Musical ensemble|band]] from [[Chapel Hill, North Carolina|Chapel Hill]], [[North Carolina]]. In the 1970s and early 1980s, they were considered one of the most popular local bands in the state. All Music Guide stated that Arrogance was ''“one of the architects of the alternative trend of the 1980s”''.<ref name="Metro Mag">[http://www.arrogance.us/articles/back4more.htm Metro Magazine, July 2000 - Legendary Rockers Unite] ((webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060716003221/http://www.arrogance.us/articles/back4more.htm |date=July 16, 2006 ))</ref>

Arrogance made a run of appearances at Raleigh's [[Village Subway]], and were the first group to play some chords at the Pier back in 1973.<ref name="Candid Slice">[http://www.candidslice.com/arrogance-remembering-the-village-subway-music-scene/ Candid Slice, April 2015 - Arrogance: Remembering The Village Subway Music Scene]</ref> The group has released six full length [[album]]s in its history and an early non-LP single.

In 1983, the group entered a dormant period and the members did not perform together again until 2000, when the band reunited for a few select concerts and gigs in the [[The Triangle (North Carolina)|Triangle]] area in celebration of Arrogance's 30th anniversary. The most notable was the "Reunion" concert at the [[North Carolina Museum of Art]] Amphitheatre in [[Raleigh, North Carolina|Raleigh]] in 2000. After large turnouts at the band's 2000 performances, Arrogance began performing again in local clubs, bars, and at special events, averaging about one show a year. The band's current lineup consists of [[Rod Abernethy]], [[Don Dixon (musician)|Don Dixon]], Scott Davison, Robert Kirkland, and Marty Stout.

==History==
Arrogance began in a [[dorm]] room at the [[University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill]] when [[Don Dixon (musician)|Don Dixon]] and Robert Kirkland began singing together in 1969.<ref name="Arrogance History">[http://www.arrogance.us/biographies.htm Arrogance Biographies] ((webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060904220148/http://www.arrogance.us/biographies.htm |date=September 4, 2006 ))</ref> Robert's roommate, Mike Greer, and a drummer from East Carolina University, Jimmy Glasgow, helped form the band. The first sets included a mix of covers from [[The Beatles]], [[Black Sabbath]], [[Muddy Waters]], [[Cream (band)|Cream]] and [[Mountain (band)|Mountain]]. They dubbed the group Arrogance, a concept of Dixon's referring to their reputation of upstaging other bands. A few months later at Crescent City Studios in Greensboro, the band made its first recording—a 45-rpm single of two original tunes, “Black Death” and “An Estimation”, that was released in the summer.((Citation needed|date=April 2024))

As the artistic partnership between Dixon and Kirkland strengthened, the band personnel changed, with Mike and Jimmy being replaced by pianist Marty Stout and percussionist Ogie Shaw. Arrogance's debut album, the self-released, self-produced LP ''[[Give Us a Break (Arrogance album)|Give Us a Break]]'' came out in 1973. A more acoustic folk style had, by then, replaced the early hard-rock, but the trademark vocals, harmonies and lyrics were very much in evidence. The sound became more upbeat when percussionist Ogie Shaw was replaced by drummer Steve Herbert and the result was Arrogance's second album, ''[[Prolepsis (album)|Prolepsis]]'' in 1975. Late in 1974, before the release of ''Prolepsis'', Steve Herbert left the band and was replaced by Scott Davison.((Citation needed|date=April 2024))

''Rumors'' was released in 1976 but unfortunately Vanguard, then a New York City independent label, was ill-equipped to properly support and promote an up-and-coming rock band since its roster was primarily folk artists. Arrogance parted from Vanguard after the one release. By this time folk rock was waning in popularity, so the band changed its focus back to its roots in rock and roll. [[Rod Abernethy]], the final member of Arrogance, joined on lead guitar in 1976.((Citation needed|date=April 2024))

In 1980, Arrogance signed a label agreement with Warner Brothers' Curb Records and recorded ''[[Suddenly (Arrogance album)|Suddenly]]'' in California. After parting ways with Warner/Curb, they captured their live energy on ''[[Lively (album)|Lively]]'' in 1981, under Moonlight Records, including an EP of covers by their alter ego, Dogbreath. In 2002, GAFF Music published a collection of their 1982 work and unreleased tracks as ''[[The 5′11″ Record|The 5’11” Record]]''.((Citation needed|date=April 2024))
