How is that commercially disappointing? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.209.205.197 (talk) 04:38, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Tracii Guns departure
Tracii Guns left as stated on RandyRhoads.TK. Kevin DuBrow is a member there and you can ask him yourself :P

[edit] Death of Kevin DuBrow
Shouldn't this be updated? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.31.17.65 (talk) 14:36, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Quiet Riot's Disbandment
There was a web site that is now defunct -- quietriotonline.com -- that had a detailed bio of the band. It did state that the group disbanded in 1980, following Rhoads' departure. They also broke up in 1989 when Kevin DuBrow (who had been ousted for another singer) was trying to retain the rights to the name. I also read on an all music station that they did break up in 2003 and regrouped two years later. (HairMetalLives (talk) 20:32, 22 December 2007 (UTC))
- It's also at [1], stating they disbanded in 1980 and Dubrow formed his own band. Snowfire51 (talk) 04:02, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] name origin -- disappointing ;)
Okay so the article mentions the *real* story behind the name. Kinda boring, really. Considering I thought it was due to a line from the "Three Stooges" "we need quiet, not a riot". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woman_Haters#Quotes 199.214.26.41 (talk) 19:04, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
