Non-notable college age musician. BLPPROD terminated due to adding a reference asserting the subjects membership in a semi-notable performance group. Subject has not distinguished themselves in the performance group. Article may be an autobiography based on author's username selection. Hasteur (talk) 00:34, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete Zero coverage of this 19 year old. I've searched under a variety of terms with and without the middle initial as well as searching the other bands mentioned. What coverage his university's New Music (student) Ensemble achieved was long before he even became a member. The "award-winning" band that he was a member of, The Rising Crisis, likewise has zero coverage apart from their moribund MySpace page. The award appears to have been 1st place in their high school's "Battle of the Bands" contest according to this YouTube video. The subject comprehensively fails the WP:MUSICBIO criteria. I wish people wouldn't try using Wikipedia this way. What a complete waste of everyone's time, and ultimately embarrassing for them as well. Voceditenore (talk) 16:24, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
