Has gone on an international concert tour, or a national concert tour in at least one large or medium-sized country,[1] reported in notable and verifiable sources

- sack went on a european and american tour with Morrissey http://www.morrisseytour.com/feature/sack/index.shtml (from the morrissey tour website) http://www.morrissey-solo.com/article.pl?sid=05/05/22/0227212 (further tour referances, from Morrissey solo website)

Has been featured in multiple non-trivial published works in reliable and reputable media (excludes things like school newspapers, personal blogs, etc...).

- http://sacktheband.net/archive.html - look for the piece titled The Irish Times, November 25, 2000 unfortunitly the times doesn't keep pieces that long so i cannot link to their site. its also referenced here http://www.morrissey-solo.com/articles/00/11/29/0037219.shtml a Morrissey fan site

Has performed music for a work of media that is notable, e.g. a theme for a network television show. (But if this is the only claim, it is probably more appropriate to have a mention in the main article and redirect to that page.)

- They were on the Carrie 2: The rage soundtrack http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00000ID3E/002-1256335-2004022?v=glance&n=5174

Has been placed in rotation nationally by any major radio network.

- are currently on the mark lemar playlist for long haul flights http://www.britishairways.com/travel/entertainhighlights/public/en_gb] and appear regularly on Irelands Phantom FM http://www.phantomfm.com/index.htm

Has been the subject of a half hour or hour broadcast on a national radio network.

- http://www.rte.ie/tv/othervoices/sack.html National TV exposure and have apeared on the Late Late Show (Ireland) though i've only a video to proove this no websites

i think a lot of the information you need to remove the citation is here http://www.rte.ie/tv/othervoices/sack.html this is the national radio/television channell of ireland and they recognise Sack as more then a "garage band".

The problem here is Ireland is so small its hard to find actual proof of what Sack have achieved. I'm sure I can find more things from them should you need it. Blu sonic 03:33, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

I'd also like to point out that Sack are as big as (if not bigger than) a lot of the bands on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Irish_musical_groups Blu sonic 00:48, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sources

I'm removing the citation as it seems i've provided ample proof of sack as a legimitate band. Blu sonic 00:33, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

I'm sure it's legitimate, but there are still facts all over the article that are missing their sources and are not yet verifiable. There's also no links to any external media coverage of the band, which would be nice but isn't absolutely necessary. Fagstein 19:07, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

All due respect but look at the golden horde and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rob_Smith_%28musician%29 there are pages in need of citation. You obviously haven't visited any of the sites I've posted and quite frankley are being obstructive at this stage. The Citations that you require on the main page have ben provided in ample amounts, both from A. the Bands web site and B. independant sources. How do you sudgest I proove the statments made on the main page. Blu sonic 03:32, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

I think there's been a slight misunderstanding here. You need to add these citations to the article itself as references rather than the Talk page here. I've started it off by citing the quote on the main page. If you can add further citations for statements in the article in the same way it would go a long way toward making the article more verifiable. Fagstein 18:34, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
