 * Keep. I know some people are offended when it's suggested that they should have followed WP:BEFORE and looked for sources themselves, but the first page from the Google News archive includes articles from Chicago Tribune, Los Angeles Times, New York Daily News, New York Post, The Plain Dealer, Los Angeles Times, NPR.--Michig (talk) 19:57, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep - The nominator said "no sources to prove notability" which is true if you only read the article as it stands now. It turns out there is a reason for the act to have an article given the coverage found by Michig. (Yes, some of the mentions are fleeting and probably not significant, but others pass the test.) The article needs expansion. not deletion, and WP:BEFORE was not nearly followed here. -- D OOMSDAYER 520  (Talk|Contribs) 16:33, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
