Jack's Broken Heart
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

NN ephemeral garage band, fails the GNG and WP:BAND going away. The only source listed that wasn't from the band itself is from a now-defunct San Diego arts blog, asserting that the band won a local "Best Alternative Band" award. I've been unable to find a reliable source backing up the assertion. This was AfDed ten years ago, and kept on a no consensus on the strength of one editor's assertion that "the band has released an album, gone on a tour, and they also have an allmusic profile," followed by several pile-on "What he saids." No evidence that they actually did go on a tour was proffered, and the article itself states that a tour was planned but didn't come off due to the band folding. The only news source mentioning the band has this as its sum discussion: "This one band came through called Jack's Broken Heart, out of California. They came and played a Sunday night show and there were, like, five people there," this from a blog off of the Dallas Observer website. All other top links are from the usual suspects like MySpace, last.fm, YouTube, Allmusic, etc.   Ravenswing   11:51, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete; no evidence of significant coverage in reliable sources. I can imagine a once-important band getting just five people for a concert, but if that happens at your only concert, you're highly unlikely to be notable.  Nyttend (talk) 12:50, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete as none of this suggests better applicable notability. SwisterTwister   talk  03:50, 29 March 2016 (UTC)
