Don't know if this counts...

Year's ago I was a dj in a big dance bar. The rock band Rush came to town and we had a after hour's party for the band at the bar (we did that for all the bands that came to town).

I ended up smokin' Getti Lee (bassist) a big fat doobie of some sweet black hash I had at the time up in my dj booth.

Oh the hash was soooo good back then...

Sweet. Did ya' talk baseball with him??? Saw them live five times.

My bro's mate's dad (same guy who's mum went to college with Frank Skinner) got his band name ripped off my Linkin Park. They were in a band called Linkin Green (a green is like a park over in merry ol' England) and were getting quite well known, well they split up and I don't know the details of what happened but they didn't copyright the name (as they weren't signed or anything) then a while afterwards they started hearing about a band called "Linkin Park."

Now I wasn't told the full details about it all and how Linkin Park had anything to do with that guy's band, Linkin Green, but it's a true story. The guy was going to take them to court for it (and for money) but as the name wasn't copywritten it would just be a waste on money hiring lawyers and such.
