Talk:The Soviettes

message: I have never heard of this band personally, but would be curious to know why they're called The Soviettes and if they are in any way related to the Soviets which they supposedly impersonate. Is it because of political ideology? In any case, this information should probably be in the article. Thanks, Ynhockey (Talk) 18:29, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

message: are there ex-members of The Salteens in The Soviettes? Xsxex 01:31, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes there is one:
"
Sturgeon Guitarist / Vocals:
Sturgeon is meticulous (there are extensive pre-tour checklists) and safety conscious. (‘Everybody buckled up?’)
She is a math teacher. Her dad is a famous scientist.
Her favorite teacher of all time was also a math teacher: Ms. Bibblenix.
She was in a band called the Salteens and has recently been married to Billy, guitarist of Dillinger Four.

text: I doubt the Salteens mentioned in the Fat Wreck bio are the same Salteens that Xsxex linked to. It seems unlikely to me that Sturgeon (with strong roots in Minneapolis) would have played with a group from Vancouver, Canada. Needs verification before it should be included in the article.

It seems to be down. I'm still yet to actually visit it working.
Have the band closed it? or is it just the server? --Simsimius 16:13, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

message: If Internation Robot is mentioned as an associated act, could someone verify this? A friend and I have been looking them up and we've found literally nothing other than mentions of the band name. --Rubiksphere (talk) 22:00, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, the band was real.  There is an interview with them online here: http://www.citypages.com/2002-01-23/music/domo-arigato-mr-roboto/  I have created a wiki page on them here: International Robot. Robman94 (talk) 19:53, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
