[edit] Commodore 64 (band)

• Delete. Band vanity. A search on Google reveals very few hits that are relevant (Search for "Commodore 64 " "hip hop" -ringtones -sid -Coleco -vic -computer +macintosh"). Nothing from this band since 1999. --PhilipO 22:42, 17 August 2005 (UTC)

• Keep. If your keeping the other geeksta rappers, why not this one? A simple search on Amazon found their cd and details. Of course its going to be hard to search for a band named after the commodore 64. But cause of their early work in this genre and pioneered the term geeksta rap I say keep. Wayback machine on their website reveals more details too. --Anonymous Coward 08:38, 18 August 2005 (GMT) From 80.229.234.135

• Comment - I've expanded the page, added some more information and another link. --Natgoo 19:04, 18 August 2005 (UTC)

• Keep. Selling 130,000 copies of an album in the first 3 months is a notable feat. Especially of Nerdcore which is usually downloaded for free. Been mentioned in Slashdot too. --195.157.84.178 15:11, 19 August 2005 (UTC)

• Keep A vote for Nerdcore is a vote for love - besides, if they are truly one-time pioneers of the genre I get down in, they deserve respect. It isn't like we get too much press coverage anyway, and at least they have in some form or another. (minor edit - if they can prove the 130,000 figure I shall change my vote to strong keep) --Ytcracker 22:12, 21 August 2005 (UTC) User's only 10th contribution to Wikipedia.

• Keep. Obscure band in obscure genre... but that's the sort of thing that makes Wikipedia so neat! *Dan* 22:37, August 21, 2005 (UTC)
