Does anyone know if this is the same Jason Martin as was in Holy Soldier? Dan, the CowMan 02:27, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

I assure you that this particular Jason Martin was never and is not in Holy Soldier. 11:44, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

I took out a bunch of meaningless nonsense and other stuff that didn't make sense. Added a few things to, hopefully, make this article a bit more competent. Twac

[edit] This article has too much point of view and no references

I have tried to tone it down the POV in this as there statements have to go;

1. "In the past, Jason Martin had a retro 50's look as is evident in his "Housewife Love Song" video where the fashion, sideburns, and even kitchen appliances depict the 50's era. Jason has also been pictured on motorcycles with his collar up and long sideburns." - what is the relevance of this? It adds nothing and is COMPLETELY UNREFERENCED
2. "some songs are simply words without any deeper meaning. " says who? They may have meaning to him. AGAIN, UNREFERENCED.
3. "Since 1993, Jason has developed a small but dedicated following of his music." Small? Compared to what? Who thinks it's small? - UNREFERENCED
4. " As is evident with his long career Jason has obviously had long term ambitions with his music." Do you have a crystal ball? How do we know this? AGAIN, UNREFERENCED.
5. "Starflyer 59 was one of the first bands on this label" UNREFERENCED

This article needs to be totally rewritten I hope my changes are seen in good faith. - Glen ^T _C 12:45, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

I agree with the above. Why go on about the whole "50's" thing? J. Martin hasn't sported that particular look in years. Writing out a whole bunch of info about that topic isn't pertinent to this article. And yes (to the person above), your changes are helpful. And appreciated. C&R 14:34, 13 April 2006 (UTC)-->

That Starflyer fan site is way old and ought not be referenced. It is extremely out of date.C&R

Well, I've referenced everything that seemed to need a reference. The article is much better now, but certainly not complete. It would be good to add some information about Jason Martin's family. Shouldn't be anything too detailed or too personal. Just something about how he's got a wife and how him and his wife formed Bon Voyage together. C&R

[edit] Needs work

This is a poorly written article and needs some work. Preferably from someone who knows what they are talking about and will write facts and instead just asserting their own general idea of Mr. Martin. But I doubt that anyone ever reads this "discussion page" anyway and I will probably end up having to improve this article myself.
