Completely unremarkable band. Fails WP:BAND and WP:GNG. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 15:38, 14 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, was thinking "weak-keep" originally until I realized the "articles" are actually just user posts. Agree with nom, fails WP:MUSIC at this time. 2 says you, says two 16:15, 14 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - While the article is not much to look at, there is plenty of potential, and a simple Internet search before nomination would have found lots of sources. Passes WP:MUSIC as having toured throughout North America and getting interviews, etc. Bearian (talk) 17:50, 14 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Any band can drive across the county and play in bars, in it of itself, that does not constitute notability. 2 says you, says two 18:06, 14 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, while disputed, the consensus is that a documented tour does, in fact, confer notability for a band: The band "4. Has received non-trivial coverage in a reliable source of an international concert tour, or a national concert tour in at least one sovereign country." Bearian (talk) 18:05, 15 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There appears to be no coverage at all of a national tour, let alone coverage in a reliable source. The article in the "Battlefords News Optimist", which describes itself as a "community newspaper", simply says "This year, the band received a piece of awful news: Del Bannerman’s uncle, who was set to be the tour bus driver, was diagnosed with cancer". There is no other mention of a "tour". Delicious carbuncle (talk) 18:37, 15 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as article fails notability criteria for bands. Armbrust ^Talk _Contribs 12:38, 15 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - The article seems like a good start and has quite a number of references for a relatively new band. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Joker264 (talk • contribs)
