Delete There is a possible argument for keep based on the fact all members are indeed from notable bands. The problem is the sourcing. Just amatuer blogs covering the local music scene (including a gig at a local high school!). My hunch is the lack of coverage is that this is just a casual group of ex-1970's band members who all live in the same town, have been jamming together for years, play some gigs under a band name and decide to self-release a 6 song ep comprising covers of songs they did in their various former bands. It strikes me that this is more of a fun hobby for ex-rock stars than a full-fledged band worthy of encyclopedic importance. If there was a way to redirect to multiple other articles (Sweeney Todd, Prism,Chillwack, etc) that may be appropriate. ShelbyMarion (talk) 11:10, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
