Founding members

According to Peter Furler's biography, he founded the band with George Perdikis in 1986. Sean Taylor joined in 1987, as did John James in 1986/1987.

Reguarding the recent unexplained removal of content

Recently, an IP removed two paragraph, as it was duplicated directly above it (exactly). His edit was reverted, then I restored the edit, since it is exactly the same. Is there some reason it keeps getting added back, or is someone simply not reading the actual changes/edit summary I left? --KnightMiner ^(t|c) 14:05, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Restored. I didn't see your summary. Can't speak for the other editor. Walter Görlitz (talk) 14:25, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Source: Perdikis looking back at the band's history

"The choice to become a “Christian Rock Band” was heavily influenced by Peter’s parents, Bill and Rosalie Furler. As fundamentalist Christians, the only acceptable form of music was the kind that worshipped God."
