Etymology and intro

I'm really disappointed of wikipedia. For someone living in America and thus being at least a little acquainted with street-speak and having at least read the name and what it is (a band), it may be completely obvious, but for someone outside America who has never heard or read of this band and is not familiar with street-speak the word is a mystery. What I'm disapppointed of is the ignorance of this intro. By my oppinion the first two sentences of this article should be (something like):

""Dumpstaphunk" is an American funk-band. "dumpsta" is slang/street-speak for "dumpster" (a trash container) and "phunk" is an alternative (computer freak/insider) spelling of "funk", a musik style."
