Jerry O'Neill
Musician. While he has played with people who have played in bands that have Wikipedia articles, he hasn't played in those bands himself, except for Pretty Mary Sunshine, which is not exactly the Beatles -- it was up for AfD earlier this year, and, while it survived, it's kind of hard to see why. And it's not like he's been a sideman for Miles Davis or something; all the people he's played with are basically local Seattle music-scene types. I don't see being a member of very short-lived and marginal band rates an article, nor does the notability of the bands composed of people he played with before or after their membership rub off on him. But it's not a slam-dunk either. ''NOTE: Do not confuse this person with the radio-talking-head Jerry O'Neill who recently had his article deleted. Different people.''
