Non-notable building. Although many famous acts have performed there, there is no evidence that the building itself has received enough coverage to be notable. c y m r u . l a s s ^{(talk me, stalk me)} 05:47, 28 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep The article is a stub, and the list of who-appeared-when does nothing to add to the notability of the venue. And most news hits are along the lines of "so-and-so will appear at Legend Valley," which also do not show notability. However, the venue itself has received some independent news coverage, such as when neighbors sued to prevent rock concerts there [1] and a judge blocked the concerts as a public nuisance [2], or when the annual Hookahville event there was busted for marijuana sales [3]. If some of that history is added to the article I think it could be a keeper. --MelanieN (talk) 20:59, 6 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Nothing more than directory-style information. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 13:46, 8 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
keep per MelanieN. The long list of bands should go, but the evidence is that this is a notable concert venue. In addition to the sources mentioned by MelanieN, here is a 1956 Billboard article about the predecessor Buckeye Lake park venue [4]; and a reference in a book about rock music and Cleveland [5].--Arxiloxos (talk) 14:45, 8 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete the list of bands should definitely go, and without that we're left with a single sentence and not a whole lot of expandability. Maybe it can be mentioned in a local article or something. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 17:23, 14 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
