Notability[edit]

It has been suggested that the article be deleted as the band are non-notable. A quick search of Google books turns up 303 references including [1] Popular music in contemporary France: authenticity, politics, debate by David Looseley, which describes the band as "one of the hottest indie properties of the 1980s". Further rooting around reveals that they were controversial because of the incompatibility of their overt political stance with their "increasingly commercial" status. [2]. I think we can safely conclude the band is notable. I am going to return the article to merely "unreferenced" status. Wwwhatsup (talk) 03:59, 11 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Anarchist Rally?

I think the statement that their shows resembled anarchist rallies needs a citation. I'm not even sure what it means, because I've never heard of an anarchist rally and I don't know what one would look like. Anarchists I know aren't very interested in walking, chanting, and listening to speeches. 137.165.166.72 (talk) 00:49, 28 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! Concerning the sources: why don`t you just mainly stick to the French article? The citations given there are not very helpful (apart from the band-website maybe, which is nothing new) but if it is on Wikipedia, it should be all right, no? ( - Come on! That`s the idea of it!) One piece of information that no non-french(speaking) author of any of the articles got yet: Dédé is the name of the drum machine (not of its ... machinist)! ( - If there is not a misunderstanding on my side.) In the French article`s line-up section Loran, the guitarist, is named as drum machine... er - player. That´s not surprising as the kind of humour of these anarcho-punks. Humour and anarchy - and then anarchic humour... Anarchy is a word with a clear message and meaning - and still with so wide and unclear, unnarrowed meaning. You (@author of statement above) never heard of an anarchist ... demonstration? How can a concert resemble one? Well they are not always - or even rarely - as humourous as Béru-concerts must have been - but Béru concerts were at least as filled with agitation (in every sense) (with the Bérus always talking of and adressing the agités - and thus including their audience in the show) and about every song being a part of that - in the political sense. It is hard to talk about art in terms of clear, scientific formulations. You need to use comparisons that rely on images and association.Stephele--217.232.70.129 (talk) 01:30, 8 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
