Love Seed Mama Jump

Speedy declined because there are apparently "plenty of assertions of notability". Though I don't see any according to WP:MUSIC. Not the subject of multiple published works, no charting songs/albums, no gold certified releases, no national/international tour, not on a major label or major indie label, no notable members, not a prominent act, no awards or nominations, no radio rotation and no TV coverage. The only slightly notable thing is having a song in a video game. Hardly justifies an article, does it? Nouse4aname (talk) 12:52, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment, described by AllMusic as having "built a substantial following due to heavy gigging on the East Coast" and "all four of their releases have sold over 80,000 copies combined". Third-party coverage here and here.  Plus, being the house band for the Washington Redskins has to be worth something.  Possibly meets either criteria #1 or #10 of WP:MUSIC, but I'll wait to see what others turn up.  Lankiveil (speak to me) 13:07, 2 September 2008 (UTC).
 * Neutral leaning toward keep. "have since performed on stage with many national acts and presently tour up and down the east coast of the United States" is certainly an indicator of notability, and if sources can be found to back it up, it's a keeper.  If not, delete as unverifiable. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  14:11, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete The 80,000 copies was already mentioned. This hardly meets WP:Music. did not top charts on BillBoard. I don't see a national tour.  Dloh  cierekim  16:31, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
