Talk:Ninetynine

Gigs under alternate names
I recall hearing that ninetynine once played a heavy-metal set as "69". Does anybody have any details on this?

Speedy deletion
Clearly not notable, I mean just look at the plays on their last.fm, for instance. Ase nine  (talk) (contribs)  17:16, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
 * I strongly recommend bringing it to WP:AFD for consensus, or adding a proposed deletion tag to the article. It does not qualify for speedy, IMO.  Cheers,  Keeper   |   76  19:13, 22 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Since when has Last.fm been a qualifier of notability? As I understand it, popularity is not absolutely necessary at all. While per WP:MUSIC the band easily qualifies as containg a founder member of Sleater-Kinney I had a look through Google (where there are 567 hits for ninetynine "Laura Macfarlane") for some good cites. I like this one which notes that in 2003 they were granted $12K AU towards the cost of international touring. There are plenty of independent reviews, such as  that establish their international reputation. Wwwhatsup (talk) 20:21, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
