“Er” is the German word for “he”. This article appears to have recently been created as a translation from German; it must have just been an oversight. I've fixed it. 173.228.83.59 (talk) 01:56, 3 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Mr. Blarr is not known as "the composer with the hat", this was just the title of a newspaper article about him that is linked in the article. --Bernardoni (talk) 04:27, 3 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
