[edit] Jasbond!
Contested prod. Supposed musical that the host venue has never heard of and has never been reviewed. Hoax. Nuttah68 13:48, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
- Delete unless sources are found, I looked but can't find any! Fosnez 14:28, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
- Delete This certainly smells like a hoax, and there's no evidence to the contrary (especially not on Google). -- Kicking222 15:12, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
- Come on, guys. It's on Wikipedia, [1] so it must be true. Delete! --Evb-wiki 15:46, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

- Delete Not a hoax, but not notable, either.--Sethacus 16:33, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
- Comment - The WP article is about an alleged "West-End musical". The webpage you cite is for some undefined "personal venture" involving some undefined item that was allegedly handed down to someone through generations. I think they are both hoaxes. --Evb-wiki 16:39, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
- Comment Eek! You're right.Looks like both are hoaxes, in all probability by the same person.--Sethacus 17:01, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

- Keep, I haven't seen this show but my father has, he tells me it hasn't recieved the critical recognition it deserves. I have uploaded an image of the poster he bought after the show.

Comment I'm not changing my vote. But, looking at that poster, I see two names that pop out--Julie Grant and Al Paige. Both were minor UK celebrities in the 60s. Grant was a singer, best known for touring in support of larger acts. She had 3 minor hits in the UK. Paige was what today would be called a stand-up comedian. Some of the names on the poster and the acts associated with them were active only during the 50's and 60's. This matches with the style of poster. I say, now, not a hoax, but can't possibly be verified substantially or, even still, given the acts, be considered notable.--Sethacus 20:56, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

- Comment. The article claims the project is current. More likely a hoaxer with photoshop. Nuttah68 21:00, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
- Comment A very good possibility. Someone who didn't count on a pop culture maven being on AfD. :) The poster is definitely from the early 60's, as Grant didn't do much after, and also per the phrase "Decca recording artist", but talking about a "current show" as the article suggests. I also found a song from the early 60's called "Can You Forgive Me?" by Karl Denver and his trio. I'm guessing those would be the gentlemen in the upper right Jasbond box with the words "their big new hit 'Can You Forgive Me'" A thorough hoax.--Sethacus 00:47, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
