Monday Morning Lawsuits and Sh*t-Talkin'
Posted on July 28, 2008 at 09:26 AM
But first... politics and pop! Will Chicago's own Barack Obama make an appearance this weekend at Chicago's own Lollapalooza introducing Chicago's own Kanye West? If Kanye goes on before 430am, he just might! Also, Obama loves Chicago's own Wilco (photo via Harp).
It's very complicated, but ex-Smashing Pumpkins James Iha and Darcy Wretzky are suing Virgin America for signing an exclusive ringtones deal with head Pumpkin (and cruel uncle-figure to Frances Bean Cobain) Billy Corgan without their involvement. Were ringtones around when they were in the band? Hard to recall, but nice to see them in the news again.
Speaking of suits, Lil Wayne is being sued by Abkco Music, noted music publishers, over the use of the Rolling Stones' Play With Fire in Lil Wayne's Playing With Fire. The rapper should look out - a similar situation happened ten years ago with the Verve's Bittersweet Symphony. They took the main violin line from Stones producer Andrew Loog Oldham's orchestral version of the Stones classic The Last Time. Oldham sued, won and the Verve never made a penny off of their biggest hit.
Um, Britney Spears' mother ran over and killed a twelve year-old boy in 1975? As with all matters Spears, bizarre and morbid.
And finally, in fun, sh*t-talking news, Idolator interviews Nick Diamonds of Islands and then he disses Vampire Weekend. Meow, etc.
