Keep A Google news search of his name and the name of his station finds results [1] from various major news sources about him.
- The Sacramento Bee has a number of articles about him, the first one on the list titled Rockin'steady Pat Martin and Monica Lowe have built solid careers as DJs on a strong foundation as a couple[2]
- Victoria Advocate mentions how he convinced a very notable band to perform at a Halloween concert. That entire article requires pay to view.
- Milwaukee Journal Sentinel talks of how he got members of another notable band to meet together to put aside differences. I can only see the summary, and it not mentioning what band.
His actions are notable enough for major newspapers to publish them. That makes him notable. There is more, but this alone should prove it. Dream Focus 05:09, 20 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment – Nice work, DF. I appreciate the potential save. ttonyb (talk) 16:21, 20 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I added a few of the mentions this guy gets. There are pages of this stuff. Why somebody leaves this as "unreferenced", I don't know. Why it get tagged for rescue, but nobody takes 2 minutes to look this guy up. Sure, 1 blog mention might not seem credible, but taken as a whole, with lots of mentions, this guy is apparently a significant character in his fishbowl.Trackinfo (talk) 16:17, 24 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
