Title: Has Mike Love ever tried to sue Mike Love? Post by: stack-o-tracks on October 12, 2014, 10:21:19 PM Not only has he copped The Lovester's name, he copped his beard.

But in other Beach Boy related news, Stig O'Hara (Ricky Fataar) did once sue himself accidentally. Title: Re: Has Mike Love ever tried to sue Mike Love?

I thought that Stig has been dead for ages, honestly. All these years later, I'm still trying to get rid of this damn water buffalo! Title: Re: Has Mike Love ever tried to sue Mike Love?

Post by: bgas on October 13, 2014, 02:19:59 PM Technically Mike could sue Mike if Brother Records raised an action against the touring Beach Boys for breach of the license terms! ;D Quite right; but as Mike has been the instigator in the previous lawsuits, what are the odds he's going to sue himself?

Title: Re: Has Mike Love ever tried to sue Mike Love? Post by: ontor pertawst on October 13, 2014, 03:01:21 PM I can see Mike giving a triumphant interview on the courthouse steps about an incredibly successful lawsuit against himself AND the reggae Mike Love. A nice suit on with a free baseball cap that says Fort Lauderdale on it or something. Elegant.
Or maybe his DJ at a Bat Mitzvah outfit. (http://img.spokeo.com/public/900-600/mike_love_2008_02_08.jpeg) on reggae love, it has to infuriate Mike that if you put "Mike Love" into youtube it spits out that guy first! He never even met The Beatles in India! Title: Re: Has Mike Love ever tried to sue Mike Love? Post by: Shady on October 13, 2014, 03:27:58 PM Just look at him, running the Beach Boys like a corporate kleptocracy.
He probably think's Brian's a fool for doing that charity single ;D Title: Re: Has Mike Love ever tried to sue Mike Love? Post by: Pretty Funky on October 13, 2014, 04:43:40 PM Are you talking Mike Love suing Mike Love or the other way around, Mike Love suing Mike Love?
....now, I need that beer thread? :beer Title: Re: Has Mike Love ever tried to sue Mike Love? Post by: Aum Bop Diddit on October 13, 2014, 05:59:25 PM I do recall in the 80s that John Fogerty was sued for plagiarizing a song that he wrote!
Title: Re: Has Mike Love ever tried to sue Mike Love? Post by: guitarfool2002 on October 13, 2014, 06:13:51 PM If it ever goes to court the whole case could be settled with a dance-off. Lawyer produces a microphone stand and a boombox, presses play, and "Fun Fun Fun" starts playing in court. The authentic Mike Love would impulsively jump forward, start doing the chicken dance, the "Hawthorne Strut", wink and point at various jury members, then for the clincher break into the classic "microphone stand as steering wheel" routine. Case closed.

On that, night, they say he grew up to be a man. |
