The name of this group is too similar to the original name of the Dead Boys - Rocket from the Tombs - to be a coincidence IMO. Perhaps a future update or edit to the article could address this. 208.32.173.71 16:30, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
I removed the list of band members from the main text as the information appears twice in other parts of the article, firstly in the Infobox and then in a table of "Rocket from the Crypt lineups". I now see that my edit has been undone with the explanation that "the members list is useful as it provides more information about real names and instruments, etc. than the other sections. the purpose of the lineups table is to show a chronology of change & releases". I dispute this.
If you want to include real names then put them in the Infobox, and the instruments played already appear in the lineups table. I think having the same information in the article in various different places is clumsy and adds nothing to our knowledge of the band. Plus, having the table justified to the right and the band listing justified to the left in the same section just looks plain awful and makes the whole article so much harder to read.
I'm inclined to revert to my original edit but that seems a little petty. I'd much rather see what other users think before taking further action. So does anyone else have an opinion...? Kevin Boyd ( talk) 23:11, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
This song was one that featured in Crank, but I am intrigued as to why it has no mention here in the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.182.106.211 ( talk • contribs) 07:03, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
