+This article cites two sources: the subject's own book, and an interview with the subject. The tone of the article is largely negative and it is dominated by discussion of a single event, for which the subject is apparently blamed, but we have never had any reliable source for that. He's stated to be a tour manager and author, but the only book he seems to have written is an autobiography, which doesn't make him an author as such. So this is basically a WP:BLP1E with grossly inadequate sourcing and no good sources at all for the link between the subject and the one (negative) event that dominates the article.

- Keep: His book seems to have gained him some media attention, and continues to do so a few years after it was published. Not really a case of WP:BLP1E, as sources discuss his notability both in terms of the ill-fated concert and his work with the Rolling Stones in general and his autobiographical reflections on both of those events. The first few pages of Google bring up pieces in The Globe and Mail (2010), ABC Brisbane (2008), Vice (2014), Metroactive (2013)... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Moswento (talk • contribs) 08:22, 23 April 2014 (UTC)
