[edit] The Special Patrol Group

A band. Not on allmusic, a few Googles, but a claim that they released "an entirely timber veneered disc" and a completely lost first EP on tape only has a distinct whiff of hoax about it. Guy 18:50, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete. There is an Australian band of that name but they seem to be from Lismore not Shepparton see [1]. The rest of this article seems bogus - as stated earlier one of their alleged founders got zero hits in connection with this group. The Lismore band doesn't seem notable enough for mine - playing middle of the bill at a pub doesn't make the grade even if it was covered. Perhaps it might be worth seeking David Gerard's advice.

  • Delete. Going to have to go with delete on this one. Seems either a hoax or a non-notable band. --Martyman-(talk) 21:13, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. The band did in fact exist. I went to university with some of them, and they played at a few benefit gigs for student union groups, etc. But they were never at all notable in a Wikipedia sense. Cnwb 22:28, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
