Is this really Notable? Rd232 ^talk 23:38, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

According to the Notable qualifications, the band meets the requirement in a couple of ways. Two notable members. Both Joel Ekman and Blackie Starks have done notable things. Joel Ekman was the co-founder and drummer for Stone Sour, Blackie Starks has a song on a Nascar DVD titled Nascar Images Adrenaline Vol 1 and two of his former bands have had songs in full FM major rotation.

Currently the band Isaac James has songs in full FM major rotation and has distribution in major retail outlets including Best Buy and Itunes —Preceding unsigned comment added by Questionyourbeliefs (talk • contribs) — Questionyourbeliefs (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

• Weak keep as barely notable. Bearian (talk) 18:09, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

Weak as it may be it still meets the minimum requirement. Here's something else for you I found while looking, Blackie's former band Field of Grey was signed to Spectra Records while he was still fronting it. Spectra also is home for artists such as Lou Gramm of Foreigner, T-Rex, and Cutting Crew. That means that two artists in this band have had major record deals and have had major FM airplay.
