Keep This band was HIGHLY important and notable. I think the original writer of the article might want to make the article more relevant and beef it up. Madangry 23:08, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

reply: - i concur, this band was significant in the midwest and united states mostly during the 1990s with the underground art punk rock scene. one of the band members girl friends worked at a store in chicago called The Dummyroom... which was also the name of one of their songs. They do have a Myspace profile.. as does a number of their band members. (Joey & Personality).

- a NOTE on NOTABLILTY - we wikipedians should keep in mind that many artists, such as the vindictives and screeching weasel intentionally kept themselves out of the public eye, off of magazine covers, and out newspaper articles. Their anti-social, non-participatory behavior is significant in and of itself and was directly communicated through their songs. This is much the case with many artists from the late 1970s and 1980s and even the early 1990s. (however after the punk/indie community finally got over itself a number of years after Dookie, we started to see a return to competitive, "rock 'n role playing" (tm), street team touting, media kit distributing, intentionally ironically confident musicians and artists) Point being, even though these artist did not chart on billboards hot singles, or aggessively market their image, they made important contributions to the cultural scene, ripples which have returned with implications transformed.
