[edit] Notability

Why is this band notable? Virtually everything I found about them on Google seems to be self-promotion. They have had a few interviews but nothing seems particularly notable. Have they had any hit singles or albums? Are any of their members now in important groups? Although Google yields a lot of hits for Havalina, most of them seem related to other things such as the song by the Pixies. RickReinckens 20:34, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

The band was considered relatively popular in Christian rock--their shows at the Cornerstone Festival were always very well-attended, for example.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 137.48.123.60 (talk • contribs).

notability guidlines wise they have or have had at least two realeases on tooth and nail(Part of a major record label). The artical mentions Space, Love, & Bullfighting and America both released on Tooth and Nail. Also Tooth and Nail distributes The Diamond In The Fish. this should be technically enough for this to not be deleted. for proof of this look up Havalina on Amazon.com. Main reason for confusion is some releases were under Havalina and others were under Havalina Rail Co.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 198.82.92.230 (talk • contribs).

Just added a few references to show international interest in the band (Canada, UK). Having albums on Tooth and Nail also virtually guarantees international distribution. There should be more reviews and profiles around to improve the 3rd-party referencing, and therefore notability.
