Significance?[edit]

Apprently this article was requested for creation, but I see no assertion of significance here. It'd probably thus qualify for speedy deletion, but I don't want to be pointlessly hasty. Allmusicguide has nothing on them, and if they only have one E.P. they sound like they're well under the bar set by WP:MUSIC. Anyone have opinions on why this should or shouldn't be deleted?

I agree, and I wrote the article! I have the EP and saw them perform in front of about twelve bored people last year, so I figured I'm qualified. However, they don't seem encyclopediaworthy to me. Ensiform 18:25, 20 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hey I LIKE These guys!

missed[edit]

They have a full LP ("Safely From the City") as well as the "Locksley" EP).

Correction: The song "Why Not Me" was commisioned by MTV and the music video followed along with winning "The Freshmen"

Didn't they win a Battle of the bands?

I can personally attest to more than one notability requirement (numbers based on the list from the notability, music list):

10. Locksley performed the theme song for MTV's show Why Can't I Be You? They were also featured in a Starz movie network commercial (that actually showed the band in addition to the movie clips). 11. A copy of Locksley's recent album Don't Make Me Wait was received by Davidson College's radio station, WALT 1610 AM. We are a small station and actually don't receive all common promo releases, yet we did receive this one.

Also, Locksley is one of the most prominent self-published bands on the market today. They performed on Jimmy Kimmel Live (link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxLWP677Kmw ).

Sorry I don't know Wikicode, but since I came here for the specific purpose of looking up the article on Locksley, I figured I'd help it continue to exist. -Nathaniel

conan appearance[edit]

the band appeared on the friday, august 31, 2007 episode of conan o'brien (thus alerting me to their presense, and bringing me to this article). might be worth noting along with the kimmel appearance. perhaps the date of the kimmel appearance can be dug up as well. opinions?

band members[edit]

Are they all real names or stage names? Just wondering because I'm curious like that. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.71.197.1 (talk) 12:30, 8 October 2007 (UTC) Yes they are all their real names —Preceding unsigned comment added by Virtusii (talk • contribs) 03:44, 17 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
