Real Music from Chicago

This orphaned article was created by an SPA, who likely had a COI in creating it. The only source used in the article never appears to have been valid, but took until 2 years ago before it was noticed that it was dead. Even the "official website" hasn't been updated since June 2008. While cleaning up this article I tried, but was unable to, establish notability of the subject so I prodded it, but the PROD was removed.  Aussie Legend  ( ✉ ) 18:07, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete, appears to be no longer in existence, no notable coverage, fails WP:GNG. - SanAnMan (talk) 18:29, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete Two words; brokered programming. Paid to get on TV, really lousy late night time slots (As a viewer of WMLW I can't even remember this show to be honest). Another one of many paid music programs on broadcast television which mainly exist to give local bands the ability to brag "we got on TV" but had neither the ratings or acclaim to get anything but that (the fact they bragged about being tied with a Packers pre-season replay at 3:30am is downright embarrassing), much less any radio airplay.

 * Comment I dePRODed this because I am not sure where regional TV shows stand in terms of notability. I guess, I think of WGN and TBS when I think of regional, but they are now almost full fledged networks.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 22:57, 1 June 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete at best as there's still nothing to actually suggest any form of independent notability apart from it being a majorly local indie show. SwisterTwister   talk  06:09, 7 June 2016 (UTC)
