Disbanded?[edit]

Why does the article say that the band disbanded after their first album, when they have three albums out? Did they disband, then get together again? Badagnani 03:03, 6 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Origins[edit]

I read somewhere, from Frederic Brahim's distro in France, I think, a long time ago, that Cobras formed in part from a newscaster on CNN China or the Chinese official news network, who was more or less released after Tienanmen Square in 1989; something to do with her on-air content. I actually don't know if this is true or not. user:McTrixie --71.124.240.231 00:35, 19 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That, in part, is an error that has been repeated numerous times in books by Orville Schell and then probably by others using his writing as a source. Wei Hua was a CCTV reporter who was fired after appearing on a U.S. news program during the demonstrations of 1989. She went on to front a band called The Breathing.
