While I admire your dedication to grammatical correctness, when being critical, I believe that one should practice what he or she preaches.

You may want to spell their name correctly.

Though technically, if one wants proper congruence between the nouns, "their" should not be used at all.

You may want to spell the band's name correctly.

"Correctly," which is a better word to use than "right," would technically be a dangling modifier. That should be even further corrected (no pun intended).

You may want to correctly spell the band's name.

You're welcome.
If plain and proper English is what you seek, I am the purveyor of such. You're welcome.

yah i know my spelling and punctuation isn't the greatest but if your going to shout a band out you could at least spell the name right that was my point. I didn't need to have a a class on my grammatical incorrectness.

So sorry Capt. Gramer. (did not intend to offend).
Otherwise, I was more interested in the music, not the spelling of the band name.
