Lutefisk (band)

(

)

* ... that the album Burn in Hell Fuckers by rock band Lutefisk was named after a phrase written on the wall of the band's recording studio after it was robbed?

ALT1: ... that Lutefisk's decision to cover "Play That Funky Music" raised doubts about the band's musical judgment?
ALT2: ... that Lutefisk's founding as a band was the result of a premature midlife artistic crisis of the frontman?

The first hook was more sensational than the article or the music involved, which is sort of dull and not overwhelmingly tasty. The article is long enough, was nominated in time and has various not-too-much-blurb sources. Serten (talk) 06:48, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

I think the first alternate one proposed above looks good. Jinkinson talk to me 22:22, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

It also needs to be cehcked to be sourced in every fact, Serten.

New reviewer needed to check the ALT hooks. Serten, you're not allowed to review or approve your own hooks (which I've labeled ALT1 and ALT2); it looks like Jinkinson prefers ALT1. BlueMoonset (talk) 04:37, 19 October 2014 (UTC)

@Serten and Jinkinson:ALT1, "Funky music", no cite after the hook, and the cite for the next sentence says Funky Music is near perfect rather than doubtable. So it fails DYK just having that on the article without a source. ALT2, needs a reword, which I will do after I post this, and is good for the hook. ~ R.T.G 21:34, 20 October 2014 (UTC)

I can't see that RTG changed the ALT as was mentioned, so I'll suggest one so we can move on. ALT3: ... that the band Lutefisk was formed to cure the "premature midlife artistic crisis" of its frontman? Panyd^{The muffin is not subtle} 12:42, 6 November 2014 (UTC)

Good enough for me, article long enough and no major issues with it. ALT3 is much more catchy. The 'mid life crisis' of Burnet is verified overall by the Los Angeles Times article as the reason for creating the band. Good to go! Sionk (talk) 18:39, 12 November 2014 (UTC)
