 * Symbol voting keep.svg Nomination was submitted on time after the article was upgraded to GA-status. Article itself is long enough and within policy and QPQ has been done. I would go with the first hook, which is sourced and within prose, as it is pretty interesting and in all honesty, quite funny as well. I believe it will attract more attention than the second hook. Though I suggest you replace "found out that" with "realized the", also point out that this is a band we're talking about. PanagiotisZois (talk) 16:52, 28 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your review. I've modified the wording as per your suggestion, though I'd rather not point out it is a band unless I have to as I think it will get more views if I don't. Also as the source if offline if anyone wants to verify it I can email them a PDF copy. Freikorp (talk) 22:20, 28 February 2017 (UTC)
 * True, not mentioning it's a band will most likely attract viewers into finding out what M2M is. PanagiotisZois (talk) 19:54, 1 March 2017 (UTC)
