[edit] The Blueskins

The Blueskins (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Appears to be a promotional piece for a local non-notable band. This has been speedied once already, but given that this version has been around for a while I am reluctant to speedy it. The quotes given in the "notable quotes" section (a sign that this group is trying a little too hard to show notability) appear to be false as I can't find anything reliable that contains them.

  • Keep Big in 2003 - see various BBC pages - [1], [2]. Have been covered by the NME [3]. Getting signed by Domino Records is pretty good for a "local non-notable band". Catchpole (talk) 09:25, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep – though not that much coverage state-side, only about three to four hits. On the other hand, they do seem to be making quite an impression across the pond. See here for articles [4]. Shoessss |  Chat  17:31, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep- There is some media coverage, reviews, etc. They have an LP on a prominent label, who have signed bands such as Franz Ferdinand and Arctic Monkeys. They are up and coming and are certainly a regionally notable band. --Rigby27 (talk) 18:09, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
