A band whose studio is made of plastoic pipes and sleeping bags. Apparently they make references to Eminem; if it were the other way round that might be notable. Just zis Guy you know? 10:42, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per nom. Winning something from SomethingAwful doesn't make one pass WP:MUSIC. When I saw the title, I thought this was going to be about guys who lost weight, so it was certainly a better article than I expected to read, at least. GassyGuy 10:49, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Weak keep if we can find sources. --Liface 16:36, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Sources for what? Even if everything on the page is verified, how would they be notable? -- Kicking222 22:04, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete for completely failing to pass WP:MUSIC in any conceivable way. -- Kicking222 22:04, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Not notable, and reads like an ad. It could be rewritten to get rid of the ad qualities, but then what would be left? Originalbigj 00:39, 25 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep I'm trying to fix it. I corrected some of the information in it initially. I'm not sure who submitted it originally, but they screwed a lot of stuff up. I sent the band a MySpace message to see if I could get any additionaly information to add to the page. I think it definitely fits with WP:MUSIC's guidelines now. At the very least they are on AllMusic and have been on MTV.Mcchrisfan 26 July 2006
• Keep I was the one who originally wrote it, the band's site was down and I had to do a lot of the article from memory. The infomation is verifiable, and the article is informative and about a real band with a decent sized fan base, I really don't see a reason to delete it.

• Delete, no way this passes WP:MUSIC, although the Photoshopped "album cover" was good for a chuckle. --Kinu ^t/_c 00:45, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. I don't believe they meet WP:MUSIC. -Hit bull, win steak^(Moo!) 02:12, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. Dog shit article about a dog shit group and I'm amazed by how long it took for AfD to happen. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.231.62.139 (talk • contribs) . Let's keep it civil here, shall we? NawlinWiki 04:00, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete, not enough here for notability band. NawlinWiki 04:00, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Ho Touchdown is no My Humps, and this is the first of the band I've ever heard of. Nate 04:33, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep There are plenty less relevent bands with live articles on Wikipedia. It fits several caveats of WP:Music not limited to major radio play in both Chicago (the #3 market in the country), allmusic, MTV, and just a fairly large underground internet following. They're not quite mc chris but behind mc chris and mc frontalot, they're probably the next biggest thing in nerdcore. Just because a bunch of you haven't heard of them doesn't really make a vaild reason to delete. I've never heard of Shar Jackson and she's got a Wikipedia page that somehow fits WP:Music. mcchrisfan
  • The existence of "less relevant" articles isn't a reason to keep this article. It might be a reason to delete those articles, though. Zetawoof^(ζ) 06:11, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note: Struck through "keep" as the user had already expressed their opinion above. -- Kicking222 17:59, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per nom. — FireFox ^(talk) _{14:28, 31 July '06}
• Keep, it's better than a lot of articles, and even though I've never heard of them, they seem to have a large following. ONUnicorn 16:12, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Strong delete, it still fails WP:MUSIC miserably. --Coredesat talk. ^_^ 19:26, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - if you are going to keep Stud(band) above, and it looks like you are going to, then you should keep this one too. GrapePie 19:43, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment First off, that's not a reason for keeping an article. Second, and more importantly (?), this user is a suspected sockpuppet. -- Kicking222 15:23, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Whilst I would have loved to have seen a newspaper reference, or indication that one should exist (eg, toured and well-known in local area), I did not. Shame. LinaMishima 20:38, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Very Weak Keep. I searched on Limewire... No results. <800 Google hits. But: Were on MTV's "The Reality Show" and the album is hardly photoshoped... It's on Amazon. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Newkai (talk • contribs)
• Keep There is a newspaper reference linked in the article in the external links section. A quick google this afternoon revealed the album is now available through Rhapsody and Emusic and according to the official site iTunes / Napster in mid-August. Torrent searches revealed links, though torrents were dead.mcchrisfan
  • Note: struck through again; see above. -- Kicking222 15:18, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
