* {{Delinquents}}: Sully, by his own admission, got into a ''lot'' of trouble with the law as a teenager, though he cleaned up his act in his early 20s. He defined the difference between what he did and more serious offenses by once saying "I've been to jail a bunch of times, but I've never done ''prison''."

Added DiffLines:

* SiameseTwinSongs: On the self-titled album, "Someone In London" is a two minute instrumental interlude that leads directly into "Get Up, Get Out!". The self-released demo ''All Wound Up...'' doesn't separate the two tracks or give "Someone In London" its own title, so "Get Up, Get Out!" is just presented as one song with an EpicInstrumentalOpener.
