What if any, is the difference between a band or a group?

My personal feeling is a band consists of 4 or more artists. A group, 3 or less.

Any thoughts if this is a distinction that has any merit?

A group is a bunch is more than one. A band is whatever holds them together. Band of brothers. Not group. Band. What holds them together? A bond. What bond? Brotherhood. Band and bond are similar. Band and group not similar, but related. Words you see actually do have meaning. Even though lost on many who use them.
