Medicine Show (band)

Seems to fail WP:BAND. Only claim of notability is "the song was well-received by London’s alternative music scene, selling 1,000 copies in three weeks and prompting comparisons with Buddy Holly and The Black Lips", but the source cited does not support the first part of the sentence, and I don't believe the source is reliable enough to support notability on its own. In any event, selling 1,000 copies of a song in three weeks is not a criteria for WP:BAND. Singularity42 (talk) 20:12, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. Article barely asserts notability, much less provides sources to confirm anything other than the band's existence.  Citation in The Independent would be good, but the link implies it is just a profile.  The link destination is a search of the Independent's site which, incidentally, yields nothing related to the band. Fribbulus Xax (talk) 20:17, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. No assertion of notability, seems like any other local band trying to make a name. But, this is not the place to do it. ---  RepublicanJacobite  The'FortyFive'  20:21, 11 November 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete. I can find nothing to satisfy WP:BAND, they just formed a few months ago so it isn't surprising. J04n(talk page) 00:39, 12 November 2009 (UTC)
