This all seems to be cut and pasted from 'N Sync. Are you maybe using their article as a template for an article about a real band, or is this just a hoax? Unless you produce some references from reliable sources to confirm that Boys of Summer exist and are notable to the standard of WP:MUSICBIO, your article is likely to be nominated for deletion. You can reply below here, I will watch this talk page. JohnCD (talk) 15:17, 14 October 2009 (UTC)
