[edit] Chocolate Grasshopper

Article seems like a memoir more than an article about the band. Does regional popularity of a "short-lived" band count as enough notability for an article? Wildthing61476 16:41, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete: All Music Guide has never heard of them. For an "incredibly influential band," that's rather rare, even if they were on an indie label. Additionally, I've never seen mention in Mojo, and I was a punk musician at that time and never heard a peep (but I was nowhere near the hardcore pokes). Much more likely a hoax than a band, with no references, no dates, and nowhere to turn. Geogre 02:45, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
