Does that question mark belong in the title? RickK 22:25, Jul 11, 2004 (UTC)

Yup, it does. Adam Bishop 22:44, 11 Jul 2004 (UTC)

A few strips of the late great Calvin and Hobbes comic strip mention a "spaghetti incident". Could that have anything to do with this title? -- Jwwalker 08:00, 23 Mar 2005 (UTC)

  • No, it has to do with an incident with old drummer Steven Adler, I'm not going to get into it.
  • I think it was a "noodle incident" that was mentioned in Calvin & Hobbes, not a "spaghetti incident". But yeah, I'd also wondered if the two were related. BACON 04:28, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

The album's songs are cover versions of punk and rock songs of the late '70s and early '80s, with the exception of the album's first track...

Buick Mackane (they spelt it wrong!) was recorded in 1972 (they got that wrong too- the sleeve says it was recorded in 1973!).

What's the deal with this second cover? Anyone have a pic of it? Adam Bishop (UTC)

[edit] Fifth studio album

This is the sixth album by GNR, not fifth. You are not counting Live like a suicide, which is with all justice an official recording. 190.132.133.218 20:09, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

LLAS is an EP, not an album. Funeral 20:11, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Album title

While Matt Sorum and Adler have alluded to some hokey "spaghetti fight" as the reason for the album title, I think it has more to do with an old story re: groupies and members of Motley Crue; the members of the Gunners simply didn't want to repeat the gross story/inside joke to the dumb media... see http://www.nypost.com/seven/02252008/gossip/pagesix/now_thats_enough_to_make_you_sick_99206.htm It's a pretty well-documented story. Perhaps this should be added to the article, but I wouldn't want to offend the delicate genius of Wikipedia editors. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.224.157.148 (talk) 02:02, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
