Non-notable band. Only very-slim claim to notability is that two members were once part of other barely-notable bands. No recognized record label, no charted songs. Looks like a local bar band, and that's about it. (Contested speedy.) - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 17:39, 20 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

3. Has articles in press from years ago on VH1, punknews.org, Kantine in Germany

4. They've been a world touring band and if you did your research, you would see that they have probably never even played in a bar.Foley227 (talk) 20:41, 20 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

5. The person, real kentucky hick who is calling for deletion has called Capitol Record's alum, plantinum record selling, charted #1 on TRL band Yellowcard, "barely notable." HE gives no reference to 90's Punk rock band Craig's Brother. It's obvious this person does not know the punk rock scene very well. Foley227 (talk) 20:40, 20 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
