- The source claims they toured with the Donnas, Nada Surf and Motley Crue. If that's the case, they meet WP:BAND and I'd have to say keep. Corvus cornixtalk 18:23, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
- But that claim isn't backed up... Stifle (talk) 19:43, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
- I don't think that would establish notability anyway. From WP:BAND: "Has received non-trivial coverage in a reliable source of an international concert tour, or a national concert tour in at least one sovereign country." Even if every article about the tour said "opening act was The Kicks" that wouldn't establish notability either, since it is coverage only in the context of the band they are touring with.

- Delete. Because the article does not include citations from reliable sources, it does not appear to be in compliance with the verifiability policy. Stifle (talk) 19:43, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
- Delete - independent notability not established. Frank | talk 17:19, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
