[edit] Things to consider before any future prod for deletion.

This article was recently speed deleted and then returned. In an effort to avoid another "prod," I wanted to list here some criteria that I presented when I asked to have the article restored. Consider the following from WP:Music:

Has gone on an international concert tour, or a national concert tour in at least one large or medium-sized country, reported in notable and verifiable sources.

Roach has toured most of the US and Scottland in 2004-2005 playing small venues.tour, press.

Has been placed in rotation nationally by any major radio network.
Has been the subject of a half hour or hour broadcast on a national radio network.

In ~late 2004 Roach was featured as a live in studio guest on BBC2's Bob Harris Country. Harris was playing his music often at the time. Seems their online playlists are not archived beyond a few weeks though.

Has won or placed in a major music competition.

For acoustic singer-songwriters winning first place in the general category of the Chris Austin Songwriting Competition at MerleFest is considered significant. 2004 winners.

I realize it would be better just to bring some of this to light in the article. Well, maybe later. -MrFizyx 05:19, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
