Birth

[edit]

I've had some trouble finding Hoey's exact birthdate for the info box. Most sources I've read indicate he was born in Boston although I did read one that indicated was born near Boston. --Before 05:01, 28 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

In this interview Hoey states he grew up in Lowell, Massachusetts. Another one gives the same place of origin. AllMusic concurs, so that's three reliable sources. - Derek R Bullamore (talk) 15:54, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Auditioning for Osbourne

[edit]

The article read that Gary auditioned for Ozzy in 1982 to replace Randy Rhoads. That's wrong; Gary says he auditioned in 1988 (when Ozzy was looking for replacements for Jake E. Lee) and that the job went to Zakk Wylde. Fixed it up. Phil Carter 23:24, 26 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

problematic article, storytime

[edit]

article has unsourced assertions, numerous, some notable and many needing multiple sources for inclusion. tidying up, Saintstephen000 (talk) 22:13, 26 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
