No they shouldn't. Sublime is a ska band not a surf band. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.207.42.58 (talk) 23:48, 4 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

The Cornells should be added, see your entry for them Mladkid (talk) 17:25, 26 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

Okay, this page is in need of some serious clean-up

Any objections before I get rid off the bands without pages? DrJorin (talk) 11:20, 25 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

The link to the Eliminators goes to a page about professional wrestlers, not of their band. Mcoolister (talk)

I'm going to start with removing redlinked articles. Rklawton (talk) 16:06, 23 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

This section should be merged with surf bands

This section tries to list surf musicians but really duplicates or expands on the topic "surf bands". Realistically, surf musicians would be individuals that explore the genre such as Dick Dale - currently a solo artist or Jim Masoner - who is an original guitarist from the Lively Ones, to cite only two such examples. A suitable example of the appropriate entry is the inclusion of Jim Fuller from The Sufaris. For the most part, this subsection appears to have developed into a self promotional search engine tool for the numerous surf bands out there. There have been hundreds of surf bands that have come and gone in the years since 1963, many arguably more historically significant than some listed here. The listing of a surf band under this heading is at least a misnomer requiring reclassification, editing down to individuals members, as well as linking to their work from their relevant "surf band" listing.

Support - significant overlap. Many of the articles listed here are for bands and not musicians anyway. Rklawton (talk) 16:12, 23 January 2012 (UTC)Reply
