    So that's the band "Whisky" pretty much stuffed then!!?

    I'd wondered why ALL the whisky manufactures had submitted summons to appear in court for the last couple of years!! The lawers fees must be considerable.

    O, sorry for that - I've just come back to reality.

    I presume from the spelling and punctuation of jim shoe's well constructed and tactful communication that he's (she's) hiring some fairly expensive lawers then!!

    Yeah, I'd really like to hear from the lawyer that said the name was copyright... This is from http://www.copyrightservice.co.uk/co...opyright_names The UK copyright society...

    'Enquiries such as ‘Can I copyright a name?’ are one of the most common questions we are asked, and this seems to be one of the most misunderstood aspects of copyright law.
    The short answer is to simply say that names, titles, short phrases, (and also colours), are not considered unique or substantial enough to be awarded copyright protection in their own right'

    And it goes on to explain why

    Having been down this road very recently with the name of a local gala gig and someone claiming they own it my advice is carry on and let them sue

    They will spend good money on making a fool of themselves

    Copyright is one thing but a Trademark surely is whats needed for a brand name e.g Marks & Spencers, McDonalds etc

    So dont lose any sleep over this spurious nonsense

    The other thing i would say is he cant be using it much as nobody has heard of his band

    If his approach to you had not been so rabid folk may have had some sympathy for the inconvenience of the situation but he flew off on one

    Tactically very naive!

    Good luck with the band Colin

    I was thinking of starting a band called The Big Gig.

    Hope there are no copyright issues with that name ! ! ! ? ? ! !
