Fails to meet WP:BAND, non-notable band. TransporterMan ( TALK ) 14:17, 2 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep (by page creator) - The band meets notability requirements. It has two singles -- "Animal House" and "Joseph" -- on regular rotation on Triple J radio (Australia). Also has won a music competition (to play at Groovin' the Moo), although whether this is considered "major" is potentially debatable, I suppose. FuJay (talk) 14:53, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

Withdrawn by nominator — I've confirmed that the band has been in rotation at Triple J, thus satisfying WP:BAND#11. I would nonetheless like to note that there are a considerable number of different reasons not to consider the Triple J Unearthed competitions to be "major music competitions" for purposes of WP:BAND, primary among them being that Triple J Unearthed has run somewhere around 22 competitions since 2006 with as many as 5-6 winners in each competition. — TransporterMan  ( TALK ) 15:49, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
