"Humppa is also popular among BSD programmers and other hacker culture afficianados." WTF? 81.232.158.237 11:23, 13 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A number of the OpenBSD release songs mention humppa. I don't know enough about the subject to say if they qualify as humppa. Mostly I'd call them filk. :) --FOo 07:07, 20 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, humppa is quite popular among the OpenBSD crowd. --Baldur 02:04, 29 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. Search for humppa on the community web site, http://undeadly.org and see for yourself. :) Magnus 02:35, 16 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There are many links related to humppa band Eläkeläiset who, by theory of music, are a humppa band. But their style of playing and fanbase is quite largely different, almost to the point where Eläkeläiset is more of a rock than humppa band. Most humppa bands play dance music in formal and/or semi-formal occasions. This article needs a picture of a "true" humppa band and links to their music. Article itself is accurate but needs sources. I try what I can but my time is limited and can contribute only occasionally. Eläkeläiset rokkaa!! \,,/ User:Woden —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.246.71.171 (talk) 12:46, 20 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
