Headgear music

These guys don't seem notable. 289 google hits, nothing at AMG. Nothing to indicate fame by association either [1]. — FREAK OF NUR_xTURE (TALK) 22:36, Jan. 20, 2006

• Keep They seem (he seems) notable enough. I think the band/project is simply called 'Headgear', so the low google hits are misleading. For that reason, the article should be moved to Headgear (band) (or some such -- not entirely accurate, since it's more of a one-man project than a band -- not sure what the naming convention for such cases is).

• Keep - assuming it's all true - no reason to think not, but some sources are desperately needed - this band has had some exposure in a long-established music rag, and has been on teevee. CDC (talk) 19:07, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
• Weak Delete. Deeper Googling verifies that this band is for real, but only one full length album and one EP published by the artist's own label doesn't quite rise to WP:BAND standards. If common play on RTÉ Radio 1 could be verified, this is probably a "keep" instead. Vslashg 20:15, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

• Keep, per david47 below. Vslashg 03:33, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

• Keep per media exposure. --badlydrawnjeff (WP:MEME?) 14:10, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
• Keep I've added sources and a video of them playing on RTÉ. Thus, they have been represented prominently in at least three popular media: radio (rte on mystery train), tv (the view), magazine (hot press). There is a page on AMG, just nothing on it yet. Also, Google "hotpress headgear" and you get a ton of results, as headgear have been featured a lot in this major (for Ireland anyway) magazine (you can't look at articles though, it's subscription only). Watch the performance on The View (link on headgear music page), John Kelly himself says "I play them a lot on radio" - he presents The Mystery Train on RTE Radio and The View on RTE TV. More links and sources added, check the page again. david47 00:12, 28 January 2006 (GMT)
