Post by: manny on September 08, 2006, 11:24:01 PM I think steve adler was sueing gnr and he said they conspired against him. when asked to elaborate, he noted the "spagetti incident." Something about Slash eating his leftover spagetti without asking. Something to that effect i believe.

Lol. :hihi: I hope this is a joke...I never heard of that, but if Steve actually brought that up in court he would look like an idiot. Title: Re: "The Spaghetti Incident" Was named this because? Post by: 31illusions on September 08, 2006, 11:50:06 PM ^^yes it's true, i was hoping to get some more info as to what all was said in court, and why they thought is was ridiculous about it enough to name the album for it
Title: Re: "The Spaghetti Incident" Was named this because? Post by: Bandita on September 09, 2006, 12:36:07 AM According to wikipedia:
At the release of the album, the band did not want, or in fact, were not allowed by a court's verdict to explain the title of the album. The album is believed to have been named in derisive reference to ex-Guns drummer Steven Adler. Adler has sued the band several times, either for royalties not paid to him for the tracks he played on, or for the royalties he had to miss since he was kicked out of the band. In a 1992 case, Adler tried to prove to the court how "mean" all band members had treated him, and he told the court about the "Spaghetti Incident": before a show the band had dinner together, and apparently one of the members had eaten Adlers' spaghetti. When Adler asked who had eaten his spaghetti, he was met with laughter. Part of the later verdict was that nothing of the verdict was to be disclosed, but part of this court decision was used in a 1997 court case again, showing the settlement with Adler (he received a total sum of $1.5 million), showing the total profit the band had made in 7 years (more than 650 million dollars), and also showing that Axl Rose was the true owner of the bands' name. A different source of the title was explained by Matt Sorum in a 1994 interview with Much Music. Sorum claims it is reference to a spaghetti fight the band had with Steven Adler, and not stealing his spaghetti. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Spaghetti_Incident%3F Title: Re: "The Spaghetti Incident" Was named this because?

Title: Re: "The Spaghetti Incident" Was named this because? Post by: Mr Bootlegs on September 09, 2006, 06:56:06 AM Sorry but i'm pretty sure Axl or Slash said in an interview that spaggetti was slang for stevens cocaine. Kinda like the splenda thing. I can't beleive you guys thought it was actually spagetti :rofl:
Title: Re: "The Spaghetti Incident" Was named this because? Post by: Amish on September 09, 2006, 06:59:14 AM I always thought it had something to do with The Linguini Accident, which I thought was a famous painting, but now I can't seem to find any info on it. There was a movie made in 1991 called The Linguini Accident.
Anyway, I just assumed it was a funny name for the album, since it was an album of covers, and I figured The Spaghetti Incident was their own funny idea of covering the famous painting, The Linguini Accident. The trouble now is, of course, I can't find any info on the painting. Title: Re: "The Spaghetti Incident" Was named this because? Post by: chriskon72 on September 09, 2006, 08:21:14 AM When the Album came out Slash was in Toronto doing some promoting, he spent the whole morning Live on Muchmusic on a show called Sart me up, at the time the VJ's name was something Anothony. Anyway he asked Slash about the title and why there is a Question mark and Slash did say he was not allowed to go into it but that it did in fact have to do with a court case.
He was saying "yeah we were sitting around talking about the differnt lawsuits going on at the time and someone said ...yeah did you hear about the spaghetti incident? and everyone was like....THE SPAGHETTI INCIDENT? he went on to call it a Guns n' Roses inside joke. Not much more but Steven is such a tool, I believe he would do something as stupid as that. :rofl: Title: Re: "The Spaghetti Incident" Was named this because?
