Date of formation

The article claims that the band formed in 1991, but why then did Tom Landa say last Saturday (when they played at the Jazztime in Hildesheim) that the band has existed for 21 years? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.115.13.20 (talk) 19:21, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

GA concerns

I am concerned that this article no longer meets the good article criteria. Some of my concerns are listed below:

There is a lot of uncited text, including entire paragraphs.
There is not much post-2010 information. Has the band continued after this, or does information about their disbandment/break-up need to be included?

Is anyone interested in addressing these concerns, or should this go to WP:GAR? Z1720 (talk) 20:18, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
