The Jackofficers

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

The article concerns what appears to be a non notable rock band that lasted less than a year, having merely toured a few clubs. No reference to any records or albums released or even a record contract with a notable (or any) record label. HJMitchell   You rang?  16:40, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

 * Speedy keep - two notable members (from the Butthole Surfers) and an album released throug Rough Trade Records. -- Avant-garde a clue - hexa Chord 2  17:21, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. Significant coverage at Allmusic, and this is an important part of the Butthole Surfers history, with the Jackofficers side-project covered in books such as Strong's The Great Rock Discography ("Like The Melvins before them, Gibby haynes and his LSD army began experimenting with electronica on the late eighties side-project group The Jack Officers, who made unlistenable computer music on some old Apple Macs"), and Jim DeRogatis' Turn on Your Mind. Would probably be better merged into the Butthole Surfers article, though, as this is unlikely to ever be a very large stand-alone article.--Michig (talk) 20:09, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
