I created the page for The Main Drag because the vast majority of bands featured in the Rock Band and Rock Band 2 soundtracks have Wikipedia pages... and because they're a pretty decent outfit. The band is easily as notable as many others which have Wikipedia pages. Should these additional external links be added to the page, demonstrating the band's notability in the music press?

When I made the page (as I'm sure
Eeekster knows, this was my first page creation), I tried to do my best to mimic the format and use some of the code from other bands' pages, although the result isn't as thorough as most. I'd propose that somebody else with a little more knowledge of the material or experience with the Wikipedia interface spruce it up a little bit so that it conforms more closely with the depth of other pages, rather than delete it outright. I think the band is pretty clearly notable enough to merit inclusion - the Rock Band 2 soundtrack alone warrants a page, in my mind.

Perhaps a mention about the use of "Love During Wartime" (one of their songs) in the finale of the second season of The Guild is warranted, considering the lack of information on this page? -- V2Blast ( talk) 22:39, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
Wow, you can tell this article is being edited by fan(s). (I like them too). But statements like this are unsourced and probably NPOV: "together they make a formidable musical collective". Let's try to work these out of the article while keeping the rest of the well-sourced material. -- WayneMokane ( talk) 05:57, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
A bit? I did some work to make the page somewhat more neutral. 82.93.10.238 ( talk) 15:15, 28 June 2009 (UTC)
