Looking at page history, a significant number of the edits and content was created by user: dongerard65, presumably the subject himself. No real assertion of notoriety aside of being a small downstate mayor in a rural community. There is significant puffery here. None of the "seminal bands" he played with have pages of their own. His "top musicians with political cred" is some blog and author both of whom are completely unknown. Jamminjimmy (talk) 02:10, 8 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
