Is your 'Nemesis' still on the go? And where are you from?

Duress from Thurso know of a 'Duress' in America who are signed and have released material in the USA, but were actually formed AFTER the Thurso 'Duress'.

Think there is also another Boss Hogg somewhere else in the world aswell but with slightly different spelling? Could be wrong?

i am from wick nemesis has bin copywritten and the lawyer will prove this

Didn't the name come up recently in the Waffles poll?
Colin Stoner told us that he took the name from a ride at Alten Towers (I think).

Surely all Colin has to do,then, is prove that he took the name from there and not from your band.
As they are a homage to the great fairground ride and they are not actually passing themselves off as a rollercoaster (although they may make some people sick) then Alten Towers won't be suing them.

If this is true all they have to do is title themselves The Nemesis, or change the name to Nemesys or Nemisys or Nemisis. Jim are your band still going, if not why not just give them the name if they are a young and upcoming band??

Also I am not sure that the single word Nemesis can be copyrighted in all honesty, you may be able to copyright The Nemesis. If you do a swift bit of googling yourself you will find there are already four or five other bands in the world called Nemesis (so you have broken the law by using and attempting to copyright someone elses name), three in the USA, one in South Korea. Nemesis is the name of a rapper from the Skoal Bandits. So they may be taking you to court if you ever make it big. Nemesis is also the title for several movies, songs, album covers and a DC comic hero, a drug, a computer operating system, a video game.

I don't think any claim to the name would stand up in court for more than five minutes before it was dismissed, just being realistic. If it would, then someone like DC Comics would have told everyone to stop using it by now.
