Version from 16:28, 28 November 2005 by 12.173.64.203 was copied verbatim from http://www.southboundbeat.com/interviews_/AlPitrelli.html I have reverted, but perhaps the plagiarized article can provide some (properly-interpreted and/or cited) information for this one? -- Crenner 00:43, 8 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Photo copyright violation

The linked image of Al Pitrelli is in violation of copyright - not only is it clearly marked as copyrighted on the page it was originally lifted from, but the photographer - ME - won't license it under the terms of the GNU FDL. Sorry guys!

Al PItrelli is not from New York City

I'm not gonna edit war about it, but the fact is, he's not from NYC. He's from Hicksville. Dlabtot (talk) 19:01, 6 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Fine. Then put him in Category:Guitarists from New York, don't revert and put him in Category:Musicians from New York City. How is that any better? ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 07:21, 7 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Al Pitrelli and Savatage

Al's position as lead guitarist for Savatage in 95-98 brought about TSO. This is underemphasized in the current article. Al's tenure with with Savatage was crucial for his later career, and not just a side track.
