This was an article that I speedied under A7. However the article's creator convinced me that playing a gig with Sonic Youth in Vienna (the band is from China) is an assertion of notability that rises above A7. However that gig is poorly sourced, and there is no evidence that the band otherwise meets WP:MUSIC. I note that being a band from China presents difficulties in meeting the criteria of WP:MUSIC not faced by Western groups. That said, Delete. Dsmdgold 18:15, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete- not special Yourname 02:49, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep - I am the creator of the article (I believe I am permitted to vote). Deleted on very short notice before I had the chance to edit it to an acceptable standard. Added some better references now, but will continue working until it is deleted ;-) Foolip 05:58, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. If established that "band has gone on an international concert tour" then sufficient for notability. WWGB 12:04, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep if this claim about a tour can be established by secondary sources. Otherwise Delete. A1octopus 23:04, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak keep The concert tour appears to have happened in Vienna, but the venue site linked is only current/future events and the Sonic Youth site doesn't make specific mention thereof. SkierRMH 01:39, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
